You have purchased a protease that can specifically cleave the Gln-Gly peptide bond of the GluAsp-Asp-Tyr –Asp-Gln-Gly sequence present in any protein (and it cleaves no other sequence found in proteins). Describe how you can use this protease (in combination with other purification method/s) to obtain pure protein A starting from the purified mixture of proteins A, B, and C you obtained in sub-question 2A. Assume that you will only need a very small amount of protease to cleave a...

Deduce the sequence of a heptapeptide that contains the amino acids Gly, His, Tyr, Ser, Ala, Met, and Arg, from the following experimental data

Deduce the sequence of a heptapeptide that contains the amino acids Gly, His, Tyr, Ser, Ala, Met, and Arg, from the following experimental data. Edman degradation cleaves Ala from the heptapeptide, and carboxypeptidase forms His and a hexapeptide. Treatment of the heptapeptide with chymotrypsin forms a hexapeptide and a single amino acid. Treatment of the heptapeptide with trypsin forms a pentapeptide and a dipeptide. Partial hydrolysis forms His, Ala, Tyr, and the tripeptides Ser-Gly-Met and Gly-Met-Arg. 7 amino acids total
