2. (10 points) The structure for the amino acid histidine is shown below (at pH 1). Write the chemical equations for the ionic dissociations of histidine (as the pH increases) Determine the isoelectric point for histidine and indicate the structure present at the isoelectric point. The pka values for histidine are 1.82 (-CO2H). 9.17 (NH3'), and 6.00 (R group). OOH "HaN NH "INP
The isoelectric point (pI) of a peptide is the pH at which the peptide does not migrate in an electric field. Since the peptide is zwitterionic, there are the same number of positive charges as negative charges on the peptide population. The pI can be estimated fairly accurately (within 0.1 or 0.2 pH units) from the pK values of all the proton dissociable groups in the peptide. Using pK values from the table at the right, estimate the pI value...

Post-Lab Questions 1. Look up the structure in your textbook of the amino acid you titrated. Write the structure you expect at pH (a) 2.5 and (b) 12 2. Compare your isoelectric point value (pl value) with the value of the amino acid listed in your textbook. How does it compare? Into which class does your amino acid fall? 3. Which data point can you obtain with greater accuracy from your graph-the pK values from the "legs" or the isoelectric...
