JEE MainChemistryBiomolecules
Match List I with List II. List I (Amino Acid) List II (Structural Feature) A. Tyrosine I. Imidazole ring B. Histidine II. Thioether group C. Methionine III. Phenolic - OH group D. Threonine IV. Secondary alcoholic group with a chiral centre Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Options
- AA-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
- BA-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
- CA-III, B-II, C-I, D-IV
- DA-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III
Correct answer
B. A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
Step-by-step solution
Tyrosine contains a phenolic - OH group in its side chain. Histidine contains an imidazole ring. Methionine contains a thioether group ( - S - CH ₃ ) in its side chain. Threonine contains a secondary alcoholic group and has a second chiral centre at the -carbon. Therefore, the correct match is A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV. Answer: A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
