3) The enzyme aldolase catalyzes the conversion of fructose-1,6-diphosphate (FDP)to dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) and glyceraldehide-3-phosphate (G3P). Thereaction isFDP ⇄ DHAP + G3P , ∆rG0(298.15 K) = 23.8 kJ mol−1In red blood cells the concentration of these species are [FDP] = 35 µM, [DHAP] =130 µM, and [G3P] = 15 µM. (Remember that 1.0 µM = 1.0 × 10−6 mol L−1. Thestandard state for reactions in solution can be taken as c0 = 1.0 mol L−1).Calculate ∆rG in a red blood cell at 25 0C.

Assume that in a certain cell, the ratio of products/reactants or Keq = 614.9 (Keq is dimensionless) for the reaction Glucose + ATP <> Glucose-6-P + ADP, at a particular instant, the concentrations of each compound were Glucose =4.3M, ATP =10.5M, ADP =17.3M and G-6-P =23.5M. Calculate the difference (dimensionless) between Keq and the ratio of products/ractants at this instance, in this cell, to five significant figures.

The equilibrium constant, Keq, for the isomerization of dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) is 0.0475 under standard conditions (298 K, 1 atm, pH 7). Calculate ∆G ̊’ for the reaction. What is ∆G’ for the isomerization reaction when the initial concentrations of DHAP and GAP are 2.2 ́ 10-4 M and 2.9 ́ 10-6 M, respectively?

The catalytic efficiency of many enzymes depends on pH. Chymotrypsin, which has a well-known catalytic mechanism, shows a maximum value of kcat/Km at pH 8.0. A) Draw a pH curve of chymotrypsin activity over the pH range of 5 to 10 and briefly explain the rationale within the context of catalysis for your depiction. In particular, note how kcat and Km may change over this pH range. B) Enzymes of the a-amylase family catalyze a reaction by forming a covalent intermediate analogous to chymotrypsin, but to a conserved aspartate residue. Illustrate a catalytic mechanism containing a tetrahedral intermediate for a glycogen debranching enzyme based upon its potential membership in the a-amylase family. (don’t need to draw a whole glycogen)
