\quad\mathrm { | } \
\quad\mathrm { OH }
\end{array}$$

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The protein is not given, so we cannot determine its exact function. However, the presence of an -OH group indicates that the protein has a hydrophilic region, making choice C the best option. The presence of a CH3 group indicates that it is also hydrophobic to a certain extent, but the hydrophilic region takes precedence for classification.

Classify Each Protein by Function −CH−CH3∣OH\begin{array} { l } - \mathrm { CH } - \mathrm { CH } _ { 3 } \\\quad\mathrm { | } \\\quad\mathrm { OH }\end{array}−CH−CH3​∣OH​
