Identify the presence of protein through a color reaction. IV. Basic Theory A. Amino Acid Amino acids are carboxylic acids that contain an amine function. Under certain conditions the amine group of one molecule and the carboxyl group of a second can react, uniting the two amino acids by an amide bond.
Picture 1. Amino Acid Carey, 2000. Amino acids are classified as , , and so on, according to the location of the amine group on the carbon chain that contains the carboxylic acid function.
Picture 2. The example from Classification of amino acid Carey, 2000. B. Acid Base Behavior of Amino Acid The carboxyl group is deprotonated and exists as the carboxylate anion at a physiological pH of 7.3, while an amino group is protonated and exists as the

ammonium cation. Thus, amino acids exist in aqueous solution primarily in the form of a dipolar ion, or zwitterion (German zwitter, meaning “hybrid”). Amino acid zwitterions are internal salts and therefore have many of the physical properties associated with salts. They have large dipole moments, are soluble in water but insoluble in hydrocarbons, and are crystalline substances with relatively high melting points. In addition, amino acids are amphiprotic; they can react either as acids or as bases, depending on the circumstances. In aqueous acid solution, an amino acid zwitterion is a base that accepts a proton to yield a cation; in aqueous base solution, the zwitterion is an acid that loses a proton to form an anion. Note that it is the carboxylate, CO2, that acts as the basic site and accepts a proton in acid solution, and it is the ammonium cation, NH3. That acts as the acidic site and donates a proton in base solution McMurry, 2008.
Picture 3. Structure in acid and base solution McMurry, 2008. The dipolar nature of amino acid gives them some unusual properties 1. Amino acid have high melting points, generally over 200C. 2. Amino acid are more soluble in water than they are in ether, dichloromethane, and other common organic solvent. 3. Amino acids have much larger dipole moment than simple amines or simple acids. 4. Amino acid are less acidic than most carboxylic acid and less basic than most amines. In fact, the acidic part of the amino acid molecule is the – NH3 group not a –COOH group. The basic part is the –COO- group, and not a free –NH2 group. R – COOH

C. The standart of amino acid in Protein The standard amino acids are 20 common -amino acids that are found in nearly all proteins. The standard amino acids differ from each other in the structure of the side chains bonded to their carbon atoms. All the standard amino acids are Lamino acids (Wade, 2013).

Picture 4. Standart Amino Acid (Wade,2013). D. Isoelectric Point An amino acid bears a positive charge in acidic solution (low pH) and a negative charge in basic solution (high pH). There must be an intermediate pH where the amino acid is evenly balanced between the two forms, as the dipolar zwitterion with a net charge of zero. This pH is called the isoelectric pH or the isoelectric point, abbreviated pI (Wade, 2013).
Picture 5. Isoelectric Point (McMurry, 2008). More specifically, the pI of any amino acid is the average of the two aciddissociation constants that involve the neutral zwitterion. For the 13 amino acids with a neutral side chain, pI is the average of pKa1 and pKa2. For the four amino acids with either a strongly or weakly acidic side chain, pI is the average of the two lowest pKa values. For the three amino acids with a basic side chain, pI is the average of the two highest pKa values.

E. Reactions of Amino Acids 1. Esterification of the Carboxyl Group Like monofunctional carboxylic acids, amino acids are esterified by treatment with a large excess of an alcohol and an acidic catalyst (often gaseous HCl). Under these acidic conditions, the amino group is present in its protonated NH3+ form, so it does not interfere with esterification. The following example illustrates esterification of an amino acid.
Picture 6. Esterification of an amino acid. Esters of amino acids are often used as protected derivatives to prevent the carboxyl group from reacting in some undesired manner. Methyl, ethyl, and benzyl esters are the most common protecting groups. Aqueous acid hydrolyzes the ester and regenerates the free amino acid. Benzyl esters are particularly useful as protecting groups because they can be removed either by acidic hydrolysis or by neutral hydrogenolysis (“breaking apart by addition of hydrogen”). Catalytic hydrogenation cleaves the benzyl ester, converting the benzyl group to toluene and leaving the deprotected amino acid. Although the mechanism of this hydrogenolysis is not well known, it apparently hinges on the ease of formation of benzylic intermediates (Wade, 2013).
2. Reaction with Ninhydrin Ninhydrin is a common reagent for visualizing spots or bands of amino acids that have been separated by chromatography or electrophoresis. When ninhydrin reacts with an amino acid, one of the products is a deep violet, resonance-stabilized anion called Ruhemann’s purple. Ninhydrin produces this same purple dye regardless of the structure of the original amino acid. The side chain of the amino acid is lost as an aldehyde (Wade, 2013).
Protein

Picture 7. Reaction with Nynhydrin (Wade, 2013). F. Peptide Structure The most important reaction of amino acids is the formation of peptide bonds. Amines and acids can condense, with the loss of water, to form amides. Industrial processes often make amides simply by mixing the acid and the amine, then heating the mixture to drive off water (Wade, 2013).
The amide nitrogen is no longer a strong base, and the C-N bond has restricted rotation because of its partial double-bond character. In a peptide, this partial double bond character results in six atoms being held rather rigidly in a plane. Having both an amino group and a carboxyl group, an amino acid is ideally suited to form an amide linkage. Under the proper conditions, the amino group of one molecule condenses with the carboxyl group of another. The product is an amide called a dipeptide because it consists of two amino acids. The amide linkage between the amino acids is called a peptide bond. A peptide is a compound containing two or more amino acids linked by amide bonds between the amino group of each amino acid and the carboxyl group of the neighboring amino acid.
Picture 8. Peptide Bond (Wadde, 2013 ) G. Protein Proteins may be classified according to their chemical composition, their shape, or their function. Protein composition and function are treated in detail in a
Protein

biochemistry course. For now, we briefly survey the types of proteins and their general classifications. Proteins are grouped into simple and conjugated proteins according to their chemical composition. Simple proteins are those that hydrolyze to give only amino acids. All the protein structures we have considered so far are simple proteins. Examples are insulin, ribonuclease, oxytocin, and bradykinin. Conjugated proteins are bonded to a nonprotein prosthetic group such as a sugar, a nucleic acid, a lipid, or some other group (Carey, 2000).
Table 1. Classes of Conjugated Proteins. (Wade, 2013). Proteins are classified as fibrous or globular depending on whether they form long filaments or coil up on themselves. Fibrous proteins are stringy, tough, and usually insoluble in water. They function primarily as structural parts of the organism. Examples of fibrous proteins are in hooves and fingernails, and collagen in tendons. Globular proteins are folded into roughly spherical shapes. They usually function as enzymes, hormones, or transport proteins. Enzymes are protein-containing biological catalysts; an example is ribonuclease, which cleaves RNA. Hormones help to regulate processes in the body. An example is insulin, which regulates glucose levels in the blood and its uptake by cells. Transport proteins bind to specific molecules and transport them in the blood or through the cell membrane. An example is hemoglobin, which transports oxygen in the blood from the lungs to the tissues (Wade, 2013). 1. Levels of Protein Structure
The primary structure The primary structure of a protein is simply the amino acid sequence (McMurry,). This definition includes the sequence of amino acids, together with any disulfide bridges. All the properties of the protein are determined, directly or indirectly, by the primary structure. Any folding, hydrogen bonding, or catalytic activity depends on the proper primary structure (Wade, 2013).
Protein
7
The secondary structure The secondary structure of a protein describes how segments of the peptide (McMurry, ). In particular, the carbonyl oxygen atomsform hydrogen bonds with the amide hydrogens. This tendency leads to orderly patterns of hydrogen bonding: the helix and the pleated sheet. These hydrogen-bonded arrangements, if present, are called the secondary structure of the protein (Wade, 2013).
The tertiary structure The tertiary structure of a protein is its complete three-dimensional conformation. Think of the secondary structure as a spatial pattern in a local region of the molecule. Parts of the protein may have the structure, while other parts may have a-helical the pleated-sheet structure, and still other parts may be random coils. The tertiary structure includes all the secondary structure and all the kinks and folds in between (Wade, 2013).
The Quarternary Structure Quaternary structure refers to the association of two or more peptide chains in the complete protein. Not all proteins have quaternary structure. The ones that do are those that associate together in their active form. For example, hemoglobin, the oxygen carrier in mammalian blood, consists of four peptide chains fitted together to form a globular protein (McMurry, 2008).
2. Denaturation of Protein For a protein to be biologically active, it must have the correct structure at all levels. The sequence of amino acids must be right, with the correct disulfide bridges linking the cysteines on the chains. The secondary and tertiary structures are important, as well. The protein must be folded into its natural conformation, with the appropriate areas of helix and pleated sheet. For an enzyme, the active site must have the right conformation, with the necessary side-chain functional groups in the correct positions. Conjugated proteins must have the right prosthetic groups, and multichain proteins must have the right combination of individual peptides. With the exception of the covalent primary structure, all these levels of structure are maintained by weak solvation and hydrogen-bonding forces. Small changes in the environment can cause a chemical or conformational change resulting in denaturation: disruption of the normal structure and loss of biological activity. Many factors can cause denaturation, but the most common ones are heat and pH (Wade, 2013) a) Reversible and Irreversible Denaturation
Protein
8
When a protein is subjected to an acidic pH, some of the side-chain carboxyl groups become protonated and lose their ionic charge. Conformational changes result, leading to denaturation. In a basic solution, amino groups become deprotonated, similarly losing their ionic charge, causing conformational changes and denaturation. Milk turns sour because of the bacterial conversion of carbohydrates to lactic acid. When the pH becomes strongly acidic, soluble proteins in milk are denatured. and precipitate. This process is called curdling. Some proteins are more resistant to acidic and basic conditions than others. For example, most digestive enzymes such as amylase and trypsin remain active under acidic conditions in the stomach, even at a pH of about 1. In many cases, denaturation is irreversible. When cooked egg white is cooled, it does not become uncooked. Curdled milk does not uncurdle when it is neutralized (Wade, 2013). Denaturation may be reversible, however, if the protein has undergone only mild denaturing conditions. For example, a protein can be salted out of solution by a high salt concentration, which denatures and precipitates the protein. When the precipitated protein is redissolved in a solution with a lower salt concentration, it usually regains its activity together with its natural conformation (Wade, 2013 ). b) Denaturation cuses heat Heat can be used to disrupt hydrogen bonding and non-polar hydrophobic interactions. This happens because high temperatures can increase the kinetic energy and cause protein molecules to move or vibrate very quickly, thus disrupting the bonds of these molecules. The egg protein is denatured and coagulated during cooking. Some foods are cooked to denature the protein contained in order to facilitate digestive enzymes in digesting the protein (Ophart, C.E., 2003). The heating will make the denatured protein so the ability to bind the water decreases. This happens because heat energy will lead to disconnection of noncovalent interactions that exist in the natural structure of the protein but does not break its covalent bond in the form of peptide bonds. This process usually takes place at a narrow temperature range (Ophart, C.E., 2003). c) Denaturation causes acids and bases The protein will experience the biggest turbidity when it reaches the isoelectric pH, where the protein has the same positive and negative charge, at which time the protein undergoes denaturation marked by increased turbidity and

incidence of clots. (Anna, P, 1994). Acids and bases can disrupt salt bridges in the presence of ionic charges. A double-replacement reaction type occurs when positive and negative ions in the salt alternate with positive and negative ions from the added acid or base. This reaction occurs in the digestive system, when gastric acid coagulates the milk consumed (Ophart, C.E., 2003). d) Denaturation cause heavy metal Heavy metal salts denature the same protein as acid and base. Heavy metal salts generally contain Hg2 +, Pb2 +, Ag + Ti +, Cd2 + and other metals with large atomic weights. The reaction that occurs between heavy metal salts will result in the formation of insoluble metal-protein salts (Ophart, C.E., 2003). Proteins will experience precipitation when reacting with metal ions. Precipitation by positive ions (metal) is required ph above solution pi because the protein is negatively charged, precipitation by negative ions is required ph solution below pi because the protein is positively charged. Positive ions that can precipitate proteins are; Ag+, Ca2+, Zn2+, Hg2+, Fe2+, Cu2+ and Pb2+, whereas negative ions that precipitate proteins are; salicylate ions, trichloracetate, pichtrates, tannins and sulfosalisilate. (Anna, P., 1994). e) Denaturation cause the addition of chemical compounds Can be caused by chemical reaction between the existing groups with the added compound. For example, the addition of formaldehyde will react to the amino group in the protein with the aminodimethyl acid. The result of this reaction gives a precipitate that is not soluble in water and hardened. (Anwar, et al. 1994). 3. Precipitation of Protein The presence of various functional groups (NH2, NH, OH, CO) and the form of double ions (zwitter ion) contained in the protein structure can lead to the reaction of protein precipitation. The functional groups are capable of binding water molecules through the formation of hydrogen bonds. Deposition reaction may occur due to the addition of chemicals such as salts and organic solvents which can change the solubility of proteins in water (Hidajati, et al. 2017). a) Precipitation with ammonium sulfate The precipitation caused by the addition of concentrated ammonium sulfate causes the dehydration of proteins (water loss). As a result of this dehydratation process, protein molecules that have the smallest solubility will easily settle. Protein deposited in this way does not undergo chemical changes so that it can be

easily reconstituted by adding water. Deposition in this way is reversible (Hidajati, et al. 2017). b) Precipitation due to concentrated mineral acids Treatment of concentrated mineral acids in proteins can lead to the formation of salt compounds from acidic reactions with amino groups of proteins. Another effect can be irreversible denaturation and protein precipitation is obtained. However, in general, deposition with the addition of strong mineral acids (except concentrated HNO3) is reversible (Hidajati, et al. 2017). c) Precipitation of protein by heavy metals The basis of the precipitation reaction by heavy metals is the neutralization of the charge. Precipitation may occur when the protein is in a negatively charged isoelectric form. Given the positive charge of heavy metals there will be a neutralization reaction of the protein and a salt of precipitated proteinic salt. The precipitate of this protein will dissolve again in the addition of alkali (eg NH3 and NaOH). The precipitation properties of these proteins are reversible (Hidajati, et al. 2017). 4. Color Reaction of Protein a) Biuret Reaction Biuret reactions are common color reactions used for peptide (-CO-NH-) and protein groups. The positive reaction is characterized by the formation of purple color due to the formation of complex compounds between Cu2 + and N of peptide bond molecules. The amount of amino acid attached to the peptide bond affects the color of this reaction. The compound with dipeptide provides blue, purple tripeptide and tetrapeptide as well as a complex peptide giving it a red color. Some proteins that have clusters -CS-NH, -CH-NH- in their molecules also provide a positive color test of this biuretic reaction forming a complex compound illustrated below:
Protein
11
Picture 9. Complex stucture of Cu2+ peptide compound (Hidajati, et al. 2017). b) Ksanthoprotein reaction Ksanthoprotein color reactions can occur due to the nitration reaction of the benzene ring of the protein amino acids. The test is said to be positively indicated by the yellow color caused by the formation of a polynitrobenzene compound of the amino acid protein. This reaction is positive for proteins containing amino acids with benzene nuclei such as tyrosine, phenyl alamin, tryptophan. In addition the yellow-colored alkali compounds will disappear and turn yellow to orange due to the acidity of the phenol reacting with the alkali. This orange color when acidified will turn back to yellow (Hidajati, et al. 2017). c) Ninhydrin Reaction The color reaction of the ninhydrin protein is positive when it gives color blue or purple. This reaction occurs in the amino-free group of amino acids with the ninhydrin listed below: The above-mentioned blue-violet color can also be used to determine amino acids quantitatively by measuring their absorbance at 570 nm. The basis of this reaction is used in the tool for the determination of amino acids (Hidajati, et al. 2017).
Protein
12
Picture 10. Ninhydrin Reaction d) Millon's reaction Millon reagents involve the addition of Hg compounds into proteins so that the addition of these metals will produce white deposits of mercury compounds. For proteins containing tyrosine or tryptophan the addition of Millon reagents results in a red color. However, this reagent is not specific because it also gives a positive test of red color in the presence of phenol compounds (Hidajati, et al. 2017). e) Hopkin-Cole reaction The color reaction of these proteins shows positive when marked the formation of purple rings on the boundary plane between protein and reagent solution. The formation of this ring is due to the formation of condensation of 2 indol nuclei from tryptophan with aldehyde. The disinidated aldehyde is obtained by glycosalic acid used for the Adamkiewicz Hopkins test (Hidajati, et al. 2017). 5. Hydrolisis of Protein The addition of alkali in proteins can lead to the hydrolysis of peptide bonds of the protein polymer. This hydrolysis produces amino acid monomers and some amino groups that turn ammonia. Due to the hydrolysis the amount of amino groups decreases. If in proteins there are amino acids that have S atoms such as cysteine and cystine in their molecules then these amino acids can be eliminated into the form of H2S compounds. the addition of Pb salt in an alkaline atmosphere to an easily observed PbS precipitate. Pb2+ + 4OH- → PbO22- + 2 H2O S2- + 2 H2O + PbO22- → PbS ↓ + 4OH-

VIII. Analysis and Discussion The experiment which have do on Tuesday, April 3rd, 2018 with the title is “Understanding Characteristic and Color Reaction” and have purpose there are : 1) to differentiate proteins solubility’s property with reverrsible and irreverrsible, 2) to differentiate denaturation reaction of proteins that caused by acid, salt, salt of heavy metal, and heating based on observation, 3) to understand cause happend of precipitated by proteins, and 4) to identify existance of proteins through color reaction. This experiment use egg and milk as sources of protein. Egg are a source of food that many people use. These food contain proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Meanwhile, milk is a solution that contains proteins. Lactose, certain minerals and vitamins that emulsify fats and casein. Casein can be precipitated by acidifying milk to pH 4,7, for non precipitated protein at pH 4,7 it is present serum (Anwar, et al, 1996). 1. Denaturation of Protein. For first experiment, test about denaturation of proteins. In this experiment, consist of three method to denaturazed proteins, there are acetate addition, by heat, and formaldehyde. First method is acetate addition. Prepare proteins solution, for egg, before used it crack the eggshell then separated between yolk and white. That use for experiment is white egg, take about 5 ml of white egg. After that, the white egg diluted with aquadest until 25 ml. Diluted have purpose to make protein solution, because if we use white egg in direct that’s mean not solution. Because texture of white egg not solution. For milk, can use in direct, not diluted before. Arabic chicken’s egg From 25 ml protein solution of egg, take 5 ml of the solution and entered into test tube, the color of egg solution is colorless with little flake. added by 2 drops of CH3COOH 1 N. The purpose this added is to give acid condition, with it can causes form of protein salt that undissolve. After added CH3COOH, the tube shaken, and result flake. Then the tube heated in steam bath for 5 minutes. This heat have purpose to test the mixture will be formed white precipitate or diluted and become colorless. After waiting, truthly the mixture forming white precipitate, that is showing if the protein denaturazed. Characteristic of protein which denaturazed can be look from some even. One of them is the changes of this physical structure. Proteins which have denaturation

usually occuring less solubility. Molecule layer of hydrophobic part will occur position change from inside to outside, this conditions is continues. Like this protein solution that we test have denaturazed caused by added of acetate acid. Denaturation cause added by acid because zwitter ions in proteins. Proteins can forming zwitter ions structure. Proteins also have isoelectric point, count of positive charge and negative charge is equilibrium. So, that is condition make proteins can denaturazed with forming precipitate and become turbid solution. The mechanism is added by acetate acid will broke salt bridge in proteins. Milk Take 5 ml of milk and entered into test tube the color of milk is white. The tube added by 2 drops of CH3COOH 1 N. The purpose this added is to give acid condition, with it can causes form of protein salt that undissolve. After added CH3COOH, the tube shaken, and result flake. Then the mixture heated in steam bath for 5 minutes. This heat have purpose to test the mixture will be formed white precipitate or diluted and become colorless. After waiting, truthly the mixture After waiting, truthly the mixture forming white precipitate, that is showing if the protein denaturazed. Characteristic of protein which denaturazed can be look from some even. One of them is the changes of this physical structure. Proteins which have denaturation usually occuring less solubility. Molecule layer of hydrophobic part will occur position change from inside to outside, this conditions is continues. Like this protein solution that we test have denaturazed caused by added of acetate acid. Denaturation cause added by acid because zwitter ions in proteins. Proteins can forming zwitter ions structure. Proteins also have isoelectric point, count of positive charge and negative charge is equilibrium. So, that is condition make proteins can denaturazed with forming precipitate and become turbid solution. The mechanism is added by acetate acid will broke salt bridge in proteins. The second method is denaturation because heating.
Arabic chicken’s egg Take 2 -3 ml of proteins solution from solution which have made up. Egg solution that colorless entered into test tube. Heated until 1 minutes, after heated, egg become turbid and little white flake, then cooled. Next, the tube divided into two test tube. Then give lable for each tube. For test tube 1 of egg solution, added 1 -2 drops of (NH4)2SO4 then heated. The function of (NH4)2SO4 is to give acid
Protein
39
and base condition in solution. Added of acid or base can broke salt bridge in proteins which one of interaction in proteins, if will be broke then denaturation will occur. While, for test tube 2, just heated, not added anything. After each heated, compare the result. So, the result of this experiment is egg become turbid, and more white precipitate on added of (NH4)2SO4 and heating. Denaturation can caused by heated. Heat can broke hydrogen bond in proteins but not disturb its covalent bond. That is caused by increasing temperature will make molecule kinethic energy increas. Beceause this increas will broke hydrogen bond and make entalpi system changes be high. If proteins denaturazed, that is showing if the entrophy increasing too. If highest entrophy occur, then occur denaturation and disorder. That is make proteins for bonding water is decrease and occur koagulation
Milk Take 2 -3 ml of milk then entered into test tube,the color of milk is white. Heated until 1 minutes, after heated, milk white solution, cooled. Next, each tube divided into two test tube. Then give lable for each tube. For test tube 1 of milk, added 1 -2 drops of (NH4)2SO4 then heated. The function of (NH4)2SO4 is give acid and base condition in solution. Added of acid or base can broke salt bridge in proteins which one of interaction in proteins, if will be broke then denaturation will occur. While, for test tube 2, just heated, not added anything. After each heated, compare the result. So, the result of this experiment is milk become white solution, because the precipitate dilute (just heating) and white precipitate on added of (NH4)2SO4 and heating. Denaturation can caused by heated. Heat can broke hydrogen bond in proteins but not disturb its covalent bond. That is caused by increasing temperature will make molecule kinethic energy increas. Beceause this increas will broke hydrogen bond and make entalpi system changes be high. If proteins denaturazed, that is showing if the entrophy increasing too. If highest entrophy occur, then occur denaturation and disorder. That is make proteins for bonding water is decrease and occur koagulation

4. Color Reaction of Protein a. Biuret Reaction Egg In this experiment the first time was to take 3 mL of egg white protein solution that was slightly yellowish and put into a test tube. Then added 1 mL of NaOH 40% colorless solution. Once added NaOH is produced a colorless solution on the test tube. Thereafter, 0.5% CuSO4 solution was added with a solution of blue color dropwise and required 4 drops of CuSO4 to produce a purple solution which showed a positive reaction to the biuret test. The function of the addition of NaOH is to provide an alkaline atmosphere to the protein. While the addition of CuSO4 serves to determine the existence of peptide bonds or not in protein samples. With the formation of purple color in this protein is due to the formation of complex compounds between Cu2 + and N of peptide bond molecules. Where more and more amino acids on the peptide bonds the purple color gets thicker. Milk In this experiment the first time was to take 3 ml of white milk protein solution and put into a test tube. Then added 1 mL of NaOH 40% colorless solution. After added NaOH the resulting solution remains white in the test tube.

compounds between Cu2+ and N of peptide bond molecules. Where more and more amino acids on the peptide bonds the purple color gets thicker. Biuretic reactions are a common color reaction to test for the presence of peptide groups in proteins. The positive reaction is characterized by the formation of purple color due to the formation of complex compounds between Cu2+ and N from peptide bond molecules. In our experiment, the egg white protein solution yielded a deeper purple color than milk protein, so the egg protein contains more peptides than milk proteins. The equation of the reaction is CuSO4 (aq) + 2 NaOH (aq) → Cu(OH)2 (aq) + Na2SO4 (aq) Cu(OH)2 (aq) → Cu2+ +2OH-

b. Xantoprotein reaction Egg In this experiment the first time was to take 3 ml of egg white protein solution and put into the test tube. Then 1 mL concentrated HNO3 concentrated solution was added. After the added concentrated HNO3 produced a white sediment and a little yellow colored solution. Then the test tube is heated to a water bath and produces a yellow solution and there is a spreading white sediment. In this experiment, nitration reacts to the benzene nucleus of amino acids found in protein molecules by nitro groups. The nucleus of benzene can be nitrated by concentrated HNO3 and produce nitrobenzene derivatives. So the addition of concentrated HNO3 was functioned to minify the benzene core of amino acids. The next step is the reaction tube allowed to cool. Then after cool, NH3 added dropwise and produced an orange solution. To produce orange color is required as much as 2 drops of NH3. On the addition of NH3 the yellow color turns to orange. This is due to the acidity of phenol reacting with ammonia. Milk In this experiment the first time was to take 3 ml of white milk protein solution and put into a test tube. Then 1 mL concentrated HNO3 concentrated

that will form two layers, which is visible purple ring and brownish purple solution. Milk In this experiment first performed is to take 1 mL of milk protein solution that is white and put into a test tube. Then added 1 drops of dilute formaldehyde that is not colored. And the resulting solution remains white in the test tube. Thereafter, 1 drop of mercury sulphate reagent was added to yellow. And the resulting solution remains white. Then 1 mL of concentrated H2SO4 is added through the tilt reaction tube wall. After the addition of concentrated H2SO4 produced a du layer of white sediment and a solution of gray. This is not in accordance with the theory that will form two layers, which is visible purple ring and brownish purple solution. The positive result of the reaction in this experiment was the formation of a purple ring on the boundary plane between the protein solution and the reagent. The formation of this ring is due to the formation of condensation of 2 indol cores from tryptophan with aldehyde groups of glyoxylic acid in the atmosphere of sulfuric acid. Tryptophan is the only amino acid that contains the indole group. If the reaction results indicate a purple ring, the protein contains the indole nucleus of tryptophan with aldehyde.

browm blackish color this is because the S atom reacts acetic acid and forms a PbS precipitate. Milk In this experiment the first step is to insert 1 mL of white milk protein solution into the test tube. Then added 1 mL of NaOH 40%. In the test tube produced a white solution. The next step is the reaction tube heated above the water bath for 1 minute. And the resulting solution is yellow (white top layer). Then, the test tube was added 1 drop of colorless PbSO4. Produce a green brownish. The function of adding NaOH is to hydrolyze the peptide bonds of the protein polymer and to the hydrolysis to produce the amino acid monomer. In a protein solution it produces a blackish color this is because the S atom reacts acetic acid and forms a PbS precipitate. Pb2+(aq) + 4OH-(aq) → PbO22-(aq) + H2O(l) S2-(aq) + 2H2O(aq) + PbO22-(aq) → PbS↓(s) + 4OH-(aq) IX. Discussion In Hopkin-cole reaction experiments there is a mismatch between the results and the theory. Based on the theory, proteins in egg white and milk are formed 2 layers (purple ring). However in our experiment we did not form a purple ring. This is because the reagent H2SO4 used is not in good condition or has been contaminated so as not to be able to get the results that should be. X. Conclusion Based on the experiments we have done, it can be concluded that: 1. Protein in milk and eggs can be denatured by acid addition, this is indicated by the presence of white precipitate in both protein solutions. 2. Proteins may be denatured by heating. Denaturation of milk and egg proteins is indicated by the presence of white precipitate. 3. Protein in milk and eggs denatured due to the addition of formadehid compounds. Denaturation is irreversible characterized by the presence of white precipitate. 4. Proteins can react with acids and can also react with bases. Therefore it can be concluded that the protein is amphoteric. 5. Protein will precipitate by adding solution (NH4)2SO4 and soluble precipitate with addition of reversible aquadest. 6. Precipitation with HNO3 is irreversible while precipitation with HCl is reversible. 7. Precipitation with heavy metals is reversible. Precipitation occurs when the protein is in a negatively charged isoelectric form.

8. In the color test of proteins with biuret reactions, the results show that egg protein and milk contain peptides. As indicated by the change of color to purple (complex) 9. The addition of NaOH will hydrolyze the peptide bonds of the protein polymer and produce amino acid monomers. In a protein sample containing sulfur it is characterized by a blackish-colored solution indicating the presence of PbS precipitate. 10. In the color test of proteins by reaction ksanthoprotein, showed the results that the protein of eggs and milk formed of polynitro benzene compounds of amino acids characterized by the presence of yellow. 11. In the color test of proteins with the reaction of ninhydrin, showed that in egg protein and milk containing amino acids characterized by the formation of blue-violet color 12. In the color test of proteins by millon reaction, showed that in egg protein and milk containing phenol group characterized by red sediment 13. In the color test of proteins with hopkin-cole reactions, it shows that egg protein and milk proteins not contain the indole nuclei of tryptophan with aldehydes characterized by the not formation of purple rings and brownish-purple solutions.
XI. Answer Question 1. Explain what is the function of testing the protein with each test reagent (CuSO4, HgCl2, HNO3, Pb-acetate)! Answer: The function of protein test with each reagent as follows:
CuSO4 is used to test for the presence of heavy metals in proteins characterized by presence of precipitation when positive proteins contain heavy metals.
HgCl2 is used for the test of a protein containing a phenyl hydroxyl group (-OH).
HNO3 is used to test for the presence of benzene rings from the amino acid salt of the proteins, ie in this experiment when concentrated nitric acid is added and produces nitrobenzene derivatives.
Acetate pb is used to test for the presence of cysteine and methionine amino acids, which in this experiment will produce a black solution because the S atom reacts with acetic acid to form PbS precipitate.
