Question

Identify the amino acid residue from which the following groups are synthesized:

Short answer

a) The following group a) is generated from the amino acid residue:$N-acetylserine\left({\text{C}}_5{\text{H}}_9{\text{NO}}_4\right) - serine$.

b)The following group b) is generated from the amino acid residue:.$5-hydroxylysine \left({\text{C}}_6{{\text{H}}_1}_4{\text{N}}_2{\text{O}}_3\right)-lysine$

c)The following group c) is generated from the amino acid residue:.role="math" localid="1663569347029" $N-formylmethionine\left(C_{6}H\left\{11\right\}{\text{NO}}_3\text{S}\right)-methionine$

Step-by-step solution

Definition of amino acids residue

The components of water are eliminated when two or more amino acids unite to create a peptide; what is left is known as an amino-acid residue.

Step 2: Identify the amino acid residue of group a)

a)The amino acid residue from which the following group a) is synthesized is:$N-acetylserine\left({\text{C}}_5{\text{H}}_9{\text{NO}}_4\right) - serine$.

Step 3: Identify the amino acid residue of group b)

b)The amino acid residue from which the following group a) is synthesized is:

.$5-hydroxylysine \left({\text{C}}_6{{\text{H}}_1}_4{\text{N}}_2{\text{O}}_3\right)-lysine$

Step 4: Identify the amino acid residue of group c)

c)The amino acid residue from which the following group a) is synthesized is:

$N-formylmethionine\left(C_{6}H\left\{11\right\}{\text{NO}}_3\text{S}\right)-methionine$
