I only need help with part D. The answer is
0.065 sec-1, but I need help to understand why.
You are studying a dehydrogenase enzyme that catalyzes the formation of NADH from NAD^+. Subsequent studies determined that NADU will absorb at 340 nm while NAD^+ will not. The extinction coefficient for NADH is 6220 M^-1 cm^-1. The reaction volume is 750 mu L total and the substrate molecular weight is 223 g/mol. You used 20 mu L of enzyme from...
Catalase (MW250,000Da) has one of the highest turnover numbers we know of. It catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide as shown in the reaction (2H2O2à2H2O + O2) If 15.0 mg of pure catalasecatalyzes the decomposition of 0.40 g of H2O2in 1 min at 37 °C at its Vmax, what is the turnover number (kcat) of catalase(in units of sec-1)? Plot a graph of Abs vs. time at different concentrations of enzyme and replot a figure and find out the optimal...
1. MICHAELIS-MENTON-(REQUIRED) a. Draw a simple graph, showing the classic Michaelis-Menton plot of enzyme activity as a function of substrate concentration; label both axes. Write the associated Michaelis-Menton equation and show the location of Km and Vmax on your graph. b. Draw a second graph showing the classic Lineweaver-Burk plot; label both axes. Show the location of Km and Vmax on your graph. Discuss which plot is the most useful to determine Vmax. Draw a second line on each graph...
1. (4 points) Given that the average molecular weight of an amino acid is 110 daltons (Da), determine the following. Remember to convert between daltons and kilodaltons (kDa) where necessary. Each of your answers must be numerically correct and expressed in proper units (1 pt) and show how the value was arrived at using the amino acid molecular weight above (1 pt) for you to receive full credit. A. A molecule of human a-tubulin has a molecular weight of 50.1...

Lab 8: Exercises EXERCISE 8.1 GM is a 20 y/o male who was admitted to the ICU for severe closed head injury and multiple fractures resulting from a fighting engagement at the bar on his birthday. According to his friends, his Ht is 178 cm. His measured Wt at admission is 76 kg. His lab values were normal except for low Hgb and Hct due to bleeding (which was well controlled). He was unconscious, thus was tube fed for one...
