The main structural feature of proteins is

Which of the following gives Zwitter ion in its aqueous solution?

Among the $\alpha$-amino acids - threonine,tyrosine,methionine,arginine and tryptophan,those which contain an aromatic group in their side chain are

An amino acid may be represented by the general formula $H_2N-CH(R)-COOH$. If $R = -CH_2C_6H_5$,it is phenylalanine $(Phe)$,and if $R = -CH_3$,it is alanine $(Ala)$. Identify the correct reagents from the list below to synthesize the dipeptide $Phe-Ala$:
$(1) ZNH-CH(CH_3)-COOH$
$(2) H_2N-CH(CH_3)-COOCH_2C_6H_5$
$(3) ZNH-CH(CH_2C_6H_5)-COOH$
$(4) H_2N-CH(CH_2C_6H_5)-COOCH_2C_6H_5$
(Note: $Z$ represents the benzyloxycarbonyl protecting group).
