1. It will lose the cofactors that are required for full activity.
2. The protein will not be able to maintain the conformation in dilute solutions without the proper osmoticum.
why do we start with the highest dilution (lowest amount of enzyme) when running the enzyme...
When running enzyme assays, why do you need to normalize enzyme activity to total protein concentration? What does the specific activity mean in the research lab where enzymes are used? (Hint: are enzymes always pure?)
General Biology / Biol 101 REVIEW QUESTIONS ON ENZYME KINETICS 10) Why did we do all of our work in a water bath and use buffer in all of our tubes? 11) What happens to velocity of an enzyme catalyzed reaction as we increase the amount of initial substrate available with a constant amount of enzyme? Be specific. 12) What is the purpose of calculating Km? (What does it tellus about an enzyme?) 13) What are the advantages of the...
why you will start by filtering the 1 ml dilution of river water and working your way up to the 50 ml dilution and not the other way around (in membrane filter technique)
When and why do we do a nursing reassessment
why do we add an when naming organic compounds. example is why do we write methanal and not methal
Mayo is among the lowest cost and highest quality health care systems in the US. How do we get the rest of the country to follow suit or shouldn't we?
Vmax of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction is A. the rate observed when the enzyme active sites are saturated with substrate B. independent of the amount of enzyme present C. the rate observed at the highest substrate concentration that can be experimentally obtained D. the initial rate observed at very low substrate concentrations
We have just enough time to get our bearings when we see a huge enzyme (called hexokinase) closing in. We are wrapped into the active site of the enzyme. Your classmate sitting on Carbon #6 is brutally launched as the enzyme removes a phosphoryl group from ATP and attaches it to the carbon. We are released from the enzyme and the molecule on which we ride is now Glucose-6-phosphate. What is this type of active site binding called? What type...
When using a spectrometer to measure the absorbance as a function of concentration, why do we have to plot our calibration curve at the maximum wavelength (lambda max)? I know it's to get the highest point of absorbance and therefore ensure high sensitivity, but how does it affect my answers on the calibration curve? what if I didn't use lambda max?
Elimination Reactions Prelab Date 1. Explain why we get a different product when we use bulky bases compared to smal bases. (3 pts) 2. If we start with 25.0 mL of 0.100 M sodium methoxide and 25.0 g of 2-bromobutane, what will be the theoretical yield of your product? (Use dimensional analysis/ Do not break up your steps/Read the beginning of your lab to guide you on how to do this problem). (3 pts) 3. How can one determine which...
