The denaturing of proteins occurs when the stabilizing forces are altered. Below is the set of processes in which proteins are denatured. Classify the following processes according to the denaturing agent involved. Please help me understand the diff and correct any mistakes.
An enzymatic assay was performed using the enzyme phophofructokinase-1, which catalyses the committed step of the glycolysis pathway. What is the final concentration of the fructose 6-phosphate substrate in a test tube containing the following: 250 µL of 150pM fructose 6-phophate, 100 µL 20 mg.ml-1 phosphofructoskinase-1 and 150 µL 100mM buffer pH 7.5
Draw the sequential transition of glutamic acid as it passes from its fully protonated form to its fully deprotonated form as the pH rises. If the pH of an amino acid solution is lowered by adding an acid, like , the group of glutamic acid accepts the proton, acid, to form a positive ion.
The pKa values of an amino acid are the following: pK1 = 2.18; pK2 = 8.95; pK3 = 10.53, what is the isoelectric point of the amino acid? Show the solution and express the your answer in three significant figures.
The -helical parts of myoglobin and other proteins stop whenever a proline residue is encountered in the chain. Why is proline never present in a protein helix?
Because of its bat configuration, Batman's body produces excess nitrogen and excretes it as a form of urea, NH2CONH2. The reaction that produces it is the combination of arginine (C6H14N4O2) with the body's water to give urea and ornithine (C5H12N2O2), according to the following reaction: C6H14N4OR2 + H2O → NH2CONH2 + C5H12N2OR2 arginine urea ornithine a. Assuming Batman is a perfect (ideal) machine, his body completely removes the produced urea which is 95 mg of urea; calculate the mass of arginine that must have been used by his body. b. Calculate the mass of ornithine that his body produced. c. If the rest of normal humans are not a perfect machine, it has been established that for this case, the normal human produces 0.0003686 lb of ornithine. What is the reaction efficiency of the normal human body compared to Batman's.
