please answer all the questions with the explanation.

Using the included table of side chain pK_a's, determine the approximate pH (no calculations necessary) at which the hexapeptide will be neutral (also known as the isoelectric point or pi) and mark on the peptide structure above the new protonation states of the side chain R groups when the peptide is neutral. (Youjnay ignore the single terminal amine and C-terminal carboxylic acid). Based on the hexapeptide sequence do you expect repeats of this peptide to take on the following secondary structures. Give a one-sentence explanation of your reasoning for each secondary structure. Using the included table of side chain pK_q's, determine the

Explanation / Answer

Answering the entire question is not possible as some data is missing. Please note table of side chain PKa’s and peptide structure is missing.

Perhaps approximate pH is 6.00 at which the hexapeptide will be neutral.

Folding a sequence with repeating pattern into an alpha-helical secondary structure rooted the hydrophobic residues to be existing as a 'stripe' that coils gently around the helix in left-handed manner, forming anamphipathic structure.
