Chapter 10, Problem 10.88AP

Chymoirypsin, an enzyme that hydrolyzes peptide bonds in proteins, functions in the small intestine at a pH optimum of 7.7 to 8.0. How is the rate of the chymotrypsin-catalyzed reaction affected by each of the following conditions?

  1. a. decreasing the concentration of proteins
  2. b. changing the pH to 3.0
  3. c. running the reaction at 75 °C

4.     The amino acid Asp189 lies at the base of the substrate specificity pocket in the enzyme trypsin. a.   How is this related to typsin’s substrate specificity? Briefly describe the interactions between the substrate and the Asp 189. b.   If the Asp189 was replaced with a lysine residue, how would this affect substrate specificity? c.   The scientists that actually mutated the Asp189 to a lysine analyzed the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme and found that the lysine is actually not located in the specificity pocket. Instead, the Lys side chain reaches out of the base of the pocket, rendering the pocket nonpolar. With this additional information, determine how the substrate specificity would differ in the lysine-mutated enzyme.
