An octapeptide was hydrolyzed and the amino acids separated. Its amino acid composition was determined: Gly (1); Ala (2); Val (1); Lys (2); Met (1); Asp (1). After incubation with FDNB and hydrolysis, 2,4-dinitrophenylalanine was detected. NO, H N -C- COOH H O,N CH, Treatment with cyanogen bromide, which cleaves at M, resulted in two fragments: a pentapeptide containing two K residues and a tripeptide containing V, G, and A. The residues are not listed in any particular order. After treatment with trypsin, which cleaves at R and K, there were three fragments: two dipeptides and MGAV. What is the sequence of the octapeptide? Use the one-letter abbreviations for the amino acids, and do not use dashes. octapeptide sequence:
Ethylene glycol (HO−CH2−CH2−OH) is a major component of antifreeze. In the body, it is first converted to HOOC−CHO (oxoethanoic acid) and then to HOOC−COOH (oxalic acid), which is toxic. What class of enzyme catalyzes both of the reactions of ethylene glycol? The treatment for the ingestion of ethylene glycol is an intravenous solution of ethanol. How might this help prevent toxic levels of oxalic acid in the body?

As sweet as sucrose is, an equimolar mixture of its constituent monosaccharides, D-glucose and D-fructose, is sweeter. Besides enhancingsweetness, fructose has hygroscopic properties that improve the texture of foods, reducing crystallization and increasing moisture. In the food industry, hydrolyzed sucrose is called invert sugar, and the yeast enzymethat hydrolyzes it is called invertase. The hydrolysis reaction is generally monitored by measuring the specific rotation of the solution, which is positive (+66.4°) for sucrose, but becomes negative (inverts) as more D-glucose (specific rotation = +52.7°) and D-fructose (specific rotation = −92°) form. From what you know about the chemistry of the glycosidic bond, how would you hydrolyze sucrose to invert sugar nonenzymatically in a home kitchen?
