(88)
Correct Answer:
Chymotropsin catalyzes the hydrolysis of peptides at the carboxyl side of the aryl-substituted amino acids phenylalanine,tyrosine,and tryptophan.Thus,the fragments resulting from chymotropsin hydrolysis of dynorphin are:
Tyr
Gly−Gly−Phe
Leu−Arg−Arg−Ile−Arg−Pro−Lys−Leu−Lys−Trp
Asp−Asn−Gln
