Question

Match List-I with List-II
List-I (Egg proteins):
(A) Ovomacroglobulin
(B) Ovomucoid
(C) Ovotransferrin
(D) Avidin
List-II (Functional properties):
(I) Binds biotin
(II) Strongly antigenic
(III) Binds metallic ions
(IV) Inhibits trypsin
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• (A) - (I), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (IV)
• (A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (III), (D) - (I)
• (A) - (II), (B) - (III), (C) - (IV), (D) - (I)
• (A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (IV), (D) - (III)

Hint:

Avidin's binding to biotin is one of the strongest known non-covalent biological interactions.
Eating raw egg whites can lead to a biotin deficiency because the active avidin prevents biotin absorption in the gut.
