About this paper

BCHS 3101: Continuous Assessment for Structural Biochemistry 1, School of Science, The University of Bamenda, March 2021. Section A: identifying amino acids by side-chain functional group (sulphur-containing, imino, imidazole, hydroxyl, guanidine) with structures; computing percent non-polar residues in an antibody fragment; identifying the heaviest proteinogenic/genetically-encoded amino acid; and a detailed analysis of norophthalmic acid (a glutathione analogue, gamma-Glu-Ala-Gly) covering its one-letter code, structure with the unusual gamma-peptide linkage, dissociation/isoelectric point calculation, and the size-based separation method needed to resolve it from a same-pI, different-molecular-weight protein. Section B: Chargaff's-rule calculation of %A from %G in double-stranded DNA, and the chain-termination mechanism by which cordycepin (3'-deoxyadenosine) inhibits bacterial RNA synthesis.
