10. The primary structures of GFP and BFP monomer proteins each contain 238 amino acids. However, their primary structures differ in the identities of two of these amino acids. Should the monomer GFP and BFP molecular weights be the same or different? Does your data support your answer?

Two polypeptides, $A$ and $B$, have similar tertiary structures, but $A$ normally exists as a monomer, whereas $\bar{B}$ exists as a tetramer, $B_{4}$ What differences might be expected in the amino acid composition of A versus B?
