MBB 324 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Thiol, Alanine, Phenol
Document Summary
These are the 20 that show up in the products of the translation reaction (ribosome products or gene-products). The -amino / -ammonium group (at ph7. 4) is bonded to the c . The -carboxyl / -carboxylate group (at ph 7. 4) is bonded to the c . Show the ionizable functional groups in the correct ionization state, given the ph stated (typically ph. The pka for the -amino group varies slightly for the different amino acids (10. 8-8. 8) average = 9. 8 , we will remember 10. The pka for the -carboxylate group varies slightly for the different amino acids (2. 6-1. 8) average = 2. 2 , we will remember 2. In the following drawings we will show the side chain functional groups at ph 7. 4. The -h is shown behind the plane of the paper (dashed wedge). The r-group (sidechain) is shown in front of the plane of the paper (dark wedge).
