A tetrapeptide has -COOH group on alanine. This produces glycine (Gly), Valine (Val), Phenyl alanine (Phe) and Alanine (Ala) on complete hydrolysis. For this tetrapeptide, the number of possible sequences (primary structures) with -NH2 group attached to a chiral center is
- A 2
- B 4
- C 6
- D 8
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 4
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Following combinations are possible for tetrapeptide:
In all above sequences, C-terminal is alanine.
Glycine is optically inactive amino acid, it can not be N-terminal. Hence, only above combinations are possible.
In all above sequences, C-terminal is alanine.
Glycine is optically inactive amino acid, it can not be N-terminal. Hence, only above combinations are possible.
