Want to know:
A nonapeptide was determined to have the following amino acid composition: (Lys)2, (Gly) 2, (Phe) 2, His, Leu, Met. The native peptide was incubated with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (FDNB) and then hydrolyzed; 2,4-dinitrophenylhistidine was identified by HPLC. When the native peptide was exposed to cyanogen bromide (CNBr), an octapeptide and free glycine were recovered. Incubation of the native peptide with trypsin gave a pentapeptide, a tripeptide, and free Lys. 2,4-Dinitrophenyl-histidine was recovered from the pentapeptide, and 2,4-dinitrophenylphenylalanine was recovered from the tripeptide. Digestion with the enzyme pepsin produced a dipeptide, a tripeptide, and a tetrapeptide. The tetrapeptide was composed of (Lys) 2, Phe, and Gly. The native sequence was determined to be:

- A sterile agar plate, I, is streaked with a pure culture of bacteria by means of aseptic techniques. Paper discs treated with the antibiotics Aureomycin (A) and penicillin (P) are placed at opposite sides of the plate, as shown in the diagram above. The plate is examined after a 24-hour incubation period, and a clear ring is discovered around disc A, but not around disc P. Within the clear ring around disc A, a single bacterial colony with physical characteristics like those of the pure culture is observed. A second sterile agar plate, II, is then streaked with this single colony and also incubated with antibiotics.Which of the following would most likely be observed in plate II after 24 hours?AA clear ring larger than that around disc A in plate I would appear around disc A only.BA clear ring larger than that around disc A in plate I would appear around disc P only.CA clear ring smaller than that around disc A in plate I would appear around disc P only.DThere would be a clear ring around both disc A and disc P.EThere would not be a clear ring around either disc A or disc P.
