Chapter 10, Problem 11P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason corresponding to the fact that the given analog PALA is used in the X-ray crystallographic study of ATCase instead of actual substrates is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

A molecule that disturbs or inhibits the activity of an enzyme is known as enzyme inhibitor. The enzyme inhibition stops the generation of enzyme-substrate complex whichin turn, inhibits the formation of the product.

Why is the reaction rate low at pH7? Be specific and say something about the enzyme structure at the molecular level!
kcat = ? an enzyme has an aspartic acid in the active site with a pKa = 4.0 and the kcat for this enzyme is directly proportional to the fraction of this side chain that is ionized. If the kcat at pH = 4.0 is 52.9x103 s-1 what is the kcat for this enzymes at pH 3.5
