- in human 2. Human xanthine oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of hypoxanthine to xanthine and can further catalyze the oxidation of xanthine to uric acid. For the treatment of hyperuricemia and gout. several medications are used to inhibit the activity of xanthine oxidase and reduce the production of uric acid. You are a biochemist and just discovered a chemical that can inhibit the activity of the human xanthine oxidase. When analyzing its mode of inhibition, you found that the enzyme inhibitor complex requires 450 kJ.mol to dissociate and that it displays kinetics somehow similar to noncompetitive inhibition. You sent your inhibitor to the ministry of health for approval as a medication for gout. Based on the data provided, are they going to authorize it as a medication or not?

(notice that its 450 kj not j)Carbonic anhydrase is strongly inhibited by the drug acetazolamide, which is used as a diuretic (i.e., to increase the production of urine) and to lower excessively high pressure in the eye (due to accumulation of intraocular fluid) in glaucoma. Carbonic anhydrase plays an important role in these and other secretory processes because it participates in regulatingthe pH and bicarbonate content of several body fluids. The experimental curve of initial reaction velocity (as percentage of Vmax ) versus [S] for the carbonic anhydrase reaction is illustrated below (upper curve). When the experiment is repeated in the presence of acetazolamide, the lower curve is obtained. From an inspection of the curves and your knowledge of the kinetic properties of competitive and mixed enzyme inhibitors, determinethe nature of the inhibition by acetazolamide. Explain your reasoning.enzyme-inhibitor complex requires 450 kJ.mol-1 to dissociate and that it displays kinetics somehow similar to non-competitive inhibition, does this is inhibitor good to use to inhibit toxanthine oxidase in the case of hyperuricemia and gout?
- When enzyme solutions are heated, there is a progessive loss of catalytic activty over time due to denaturation of the enzyme. A solution of the enzyme hexokinase incubated at 45 degrees Celsius lost 50% of its activity in 12 minutes, but when incubated at 45 degrees Celsius in the presence of a very large concentration of one of its substrates, it lost only 3% of its activity in 12 minutes. Suggest why thermal denaturation of hexokinase was retarded in the presence of one substrates.Regarding the physical condition (characteristics of the solution/environment) in which an enzyme finds itself: sometimes enzymes are most active at a certain level and still active but to a lesser degree at a level above or below the optimal level. Describe the likely reason for the enzyme’s decrement in function at levels other than the optimal level?Human xanthine oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of hypoxanthine to xanthine and can further catalyze the oxidation of xanthine to uric acid.
