The molecular weight of Val and Ser are 117 Dalton and 105 Dalton, respectively. Val and Ser form a dipeptide Val-Ser. The molecular weight (in Daltons) of the dipeptide is
Select an option to attempt
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation
Dipeptide MW calculation: When two amino acids form a peptide bond, one water molecule (, MW = 18 Da) is lost.. This applies to every peptide bond formed: for a polypeptide ofamino acids, the mass loss isDa due to thewater molecules eliminated during condensation reactions.
