A scientist is conducting a Sanger's sequencing experiment to determine the number of polypeptides present in an oligomeric protein. The molecular weight of the protein is 18000 g/mol . After the reaction of 520 mg of the protein with 1‑fluoro‑2,4‑dinitrobenzene, the peptide bonds were hydrolyzed with an acid. As a result, the scientist obtained 39 mg of 2,4‑dinitrophenyl serine. What is the number of the polypeptide chains present in the oligomer?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Depends on molecule.

Explanation:

The number of the polypeptide chains present in the oligomer depends on the molecule. Some molecules have more polypeptide chains whereas some of them have less polypeptide chains. For example, Hemoglobin is a oligomer that consists of four Polypeptide Chains, two of these Polypeptide Chains are α-globin molecules, each comprise of 141 amino acids, and the other two are (β, γ, δ, or ε) globins, each consist of 146 amino acids.
