A. Alanine B. Arginine C. Isoleucine D. Leucine E. Phenylalanine The correct answer is B. This question requires two logical steps. First, you need to appreciate that hydrophilic amino acids are more likely to appear on the surface of a protein molecule, whereas hydrophobic amino acids are most likely be found in the interior. Next, you need to figure out which of the amino acids listed is hydrophilic. If you recall that arginine is a basic amino acid that is positively charged at physiologic pH, you should be able to answer this question right away.
All the other choices have neutral side chains and are uncharged at physiologic pH. They would most likely be found in the hydrophobic core of the protein structure. Alanine (choice A), isoleucine (choice C), and leucine (choice D) all have aliphatic side chains; phenylalanine (choice E) and tryptophan have aromatic side chains.
