If I have a peptide chain/protein made with D-amino acids, would I be able to digest it with a protease like GluC or would I need a special protease for that?
D amino acids usually confer resistance toward proteases. However they only slower the reaction
I am creating a standard test solution to test the UV detector on my HPLC. Does anyone know a good (and hopefully cheap) UV active hydrophobic compound? EDIT: My apologies, I should have been...
