Problem 11: Sequence of a polypeptide
Correct!
A polypeptide 5 amino acids long is split into various smaller fragments, and the amino acid sequences of some of the fragments are determined. The identified fragments include: his-gly-ser, ala-his, and ala-ala. Predict the primary sequence of the polypeptide.
A. his-gly-ser-ala-ala
B. ala-his-gly-ser-ala
C. ala-ala-his-gly-ser
You have correctly interpreted the source of the fragments.
