Cellulose is a polysaccharide. It is a homopolysaccharide composed of glucose residues linked together by beta-1,4 linkages. Glucose is a polar molecule i.e. it contains hydroxyl groups and a carbonyl group. However, cellulose is not soluble in water due to its fibrillar structure.
The objective is to design a protein that can interact with
cellulose. Since cellulose contains many polar side chains, we have
to use polar amino acids in the interacting protein.
In the given case,
A = Leucine = Nonpolar amino acid
B = Phenylalanine = Nonpolar amino acid
C = Glutamic acid = Polar amino acid
D = Glutamine = Polar amino acid
The alpha-amino and alpha-carboxyl groups are involved in
peptide bond formation. So, they are not available for
interactions. Only R-chain functional groups are available for
interactions.

In studying a particular biomolecule (a protein, nucleic acid,
carbohydrate, or lipid) in the laboratory, the biochemist first
needs to separate it from other biomolecules in the sample (that
is, it needs to be purified). Specific purification techniques are
described later in the text. However, by looking at the monomeric
subunits and functional groups of a biomolecule, you should have
some ideas about the characteristics of the molecule that would
allow you to separate it from other molecules. Look for...

QUESTION 6 Assume you are studying a protein-coding gene, ACEX, which includes 4 exons as illustrated in the gene map below. The 5' UTR and 3' UTR segments are each 25 bp long. Exons 1 thru 4 are 100, 200, 300, 400 bp long, respectively. Each intron is 200 bp each. The locations of the relevant EcoRI sites within the ACEX locus are indicated, but the location of other restriction enzyme sites (like BamHI) are not shown." EcoRI probe EcoRI...
