Isoelectric point

Vedclass · Answer

(B) The isoelectric point $(pI)$ is defined as the specific $pH$ value at which an amino acid or protein carries no net electrical charge.At this $pH$,the molecule exists as a zwitterion,meaning the positive and negative charges are balanced.Because the net charge is zero,the amino acid will not migrate toward either the anode or the cathode when placed in an electric field.

Column-$I$ (Amino Acid)	Column-$II$ (Example)
$P$. Acidic	$I$. Lysine
$Q$. Basic	$II$. Valine
$R$. Neutral	$III$. Glutamate

The $pH$ value of a solution in which a polar amino acid does not migrate under the influence of an electric field is called:
