Suppose you have a peptide composed of 4 amino acids bonded together: glutamine, glycine, glutamic acid, and the novel amino acid friendsamine, which has an ionizable side group with a pKa of 5.9. At pH 7.0, this peptide has a net charge of -2. What is the charge on the protonated form of the friendsamine side group? Explain how you determined the charge on the protonated friendsamine side group
