The active site of lysozyme contains two amino acid residues essential for catalysis: Glu35 and Asp52. The pKa values of the carboxyl side chains of these residues are 5.9 and 4.5, respectively. What is the ionization state (protonated or deprotonated) of each residue at pH 5.2, the pH optimum of lysozyme? How can the ionization states of these residues explain the pH-activity profile of lysozyme.

Suppose you are researching a special enzyme named "Generic Enzyme." Generic Enzyme has an amino acid side chain functional group that must be in the protonated form for the enzyme to be active. You have just purified Generic Enzyme and found that 1 in every 4 individual Generic Enzyme molecules is active. Your special Generic Enzyme is at a pH of 7.75. Generic enzyme has a phenolic hydroxyl group which is responsible for its catalytic activity. What is the pKa...
