You are studying an enzyme and wish to determine how an inhibitor functions. The enzyme reaction is A->P. You perform two experiments, one measuring enzyme activity without inhibitor and one measuring enzyme activity with 200 uM inhibitor. The results are presented below: No inhibitor a (uM) v (uM/sec) 10 15 25 40 70 8.333 10.714 13.889 16.667 19.444 200 uM inhibitor a (UM) v (uM/sec) 10 15 25 40 70 6.250 7.500 8.929 10.000 10.938 What are Vmax, KM, K₁. What type of inhibition does I cause?

Under the following conditions, fill in the blanks. Then, describe why this inhibitor is the type of inhibitor you identified it as. If you were to add 5nM of a reversible inhibitor, the Km for the measured enzyme catalyzed reaction would ______ (Increase, Decrease, Stay the same) to ______µM (choose appropriate value) and Vmax would _______ (Increase, Decrease, Stay the same) to ______µMs-1. So, this inhibitor is a ______ (Competitive, Uncompetitive, Mixed) inhibitor. Conditions: kcat = 130 s^-1 Vo = 3.0 μMs-1 S = 10 μM Et = 0.09 µM

Idris has successfully extracted enzymatic proteins from the fish viscera (intestines and stomach). After homogenization and centrifugation, he managed to pool the crude enzyme extract. He is characterizing the enzymes. Please help Idris by answering the followingquestions: (a) How do I run the experiment to find the kinetic properties of the enzyme, KMand Vmax? (b) The enzyme decreased in activity in the presence of NaCl. How do I find out if NaCl is a competitive or non-competitive inhibitor? Explain.
Draw the Michaelis-Menten Plot and Lineweaver-Burke Plot of an enzyme in thefollowing situation. An enzyme, Enzyme A, has an optimal temperature at 34.5oC. The enzyme kinetic parameters were recorded to be Km = 15.0 μM, Vmax = 12.0 μM/s. The condition for an enzyme kinetic experiment has the temperature raised to 36.5oC. What will happen to the results? Provide at least five data sets prior to raising the temperature and after raising the temperature and plot the graphs as overlaying figures for comparison. Explain youranswer using a minimum of 200 words.
