In a given protein (Enzyme), amino acid Lysine is replaces by aspartic acid and amino acid glycine is replacedby cysteine. Does this change occur in the primary and or secondary. Explain how it might result in change in the tertiary protein structure. Do you think that there will be an effect of the enzyme action and/or activity? Explain.

You have been studying a family of enzymes. You know that the original protein contains the amino acid
sequence Gly, Trp, Asp, Ser, Lys, Arg. You start with several different samples, and you discover that each one
has a different mutation in the amino acid sequence. You decide to assay each of them in the hope that at least one
will have at least some activity. Which of the following five sequences would you expect to give you the best result? PLEASE EXPLAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
a. Gly, Tyr, Asp, Ser, Lys, Arg
b. Asp, Trp, Asp, Ser, Lys, Arg
c. Gly, Trp, Asp, Ser, Asp, Arg
d. Gly, Trp, Asp, Thr, Lys, Arg
e. Gly, Met, Asp, Thr, Lys, Arg
