Biochemical events in the synthesis of ATP: I. Subunits of ATP synthase chages in conformation and twists/rotates as H+ moves through it II. H+ gradient is the driving force (through the ATP synthase) to form ATP from ADP + Pi. III. H+ moving across the membrane through ATP synthase rotates its ring of c subunits II and III only I, II, III I and II only I and III only

Properties of an Enzyme of Prostaglandin Synthesis.Prostaglandins are a class of eicosanoids, fatty acid derivatives with a variety of extremely potent actions on vertebrate tissues. They are re-sponsible for producing fever and inflammation and its associated pain. Prostaglandins are derived from the 20-carbon fatty acid arachidonic acid in a reaction catalyzed by the enzyme prostaglandin en-doperoxide synthase. This enzyme, a cyclooxygenase, uses oxygen to convert arachidonic acid to PGG2, the immediate precursor of many different prostaglandins (prostaglandin synthesis is described in Chapter 21). a)The kinetic data given below are for the reaction catalyzed by prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase. Focusing here on the first two columns, determine the Vmax and Km of the enzyme. b)Ibuprofen is an inhibitor of prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase. By inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins, ibuprofen reduces inflammation and pain. Using the data in the first and third columns of…

Mechanisms of catalysis: 2.5 Mechanism of chymotrypsin summary. These mechanisms involve several of the above-mentioned catalyses. In these summaries, do not just draw a diagram of the proposed mechanisms. It is more important to understand which reaction steps involve what kind of catalysis and how these help to reduce the activation energy needed for the reaction (e.g. a step in the reaction mechanism could be electrostatic catalysis to stabilise the transitions state)
Initial rate data for an enzyme that obeys Michaelis–Menten kinetics areshown in the following table. When the enzyme concentration is 3 nmolml-1, a Lineweaver–Burk plot of this data gives a line with a y-intercept of0.00426 (μmol-1 ml s). (a) Calculate kcat for the reaction.(b) Calculate KM for the enzyme.(c) When the reactions in part (b) are repeated in the presence of 12 μM ofan uncompetitive inhibitor, the y-intercept of the Lineweaver–Burk plotis 0.352 (μmol-1 ml s). Calculate K′I for this inhibitor.
4. a. Calculate the KM (Michaelis constant) and the vmax (the maximum initial rate) for both substrates (sphingosine and ATP). Show your work, and be careful about units. b. threo-dihydrosphingosine, a stereoisomer of sphingosine, is an inhibitor of sphingosine kinase. What kind of inhibitor (competitive, uncompetitive, noncompetitive) is threo-dihydrosphingosine? Citing information from the Lineweaver-Burke plots, explain how you can tell.
What biochemical function do these Omega-3 fats play? Much cheaper alternative sources of omega-3 fats include fats from some seeds and nuts (most often from flax seed in consumer products), but the allure of fish oil sources maintains these products' popularity despite much higher prices. Is there a difference in the omega-3 fats derived from plant and animal sources? If so, explain the difference and why one is "better" than the other.
