Question

(a) The interior of the binding cavity in Ara h8 is largely lined with hydrophobic amino acid residues. At the same time, there are alsothese different binding sites is controlled by the hydrophobicity of the ligand molecule. How does the hydrophobicity of the three ligands MES, epicatechin and ANS differ? (b) Inside the binding cavity of Ara h8, the preferred binding sites of MES and ANS are both adjacent to which of the following amino acid residues: Ala, Glu, Arg? Why?
