Question
Chapter 14, Problem 22PDQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The reason due to which difference in an amino acid is shown by fingerprinting technique, but no difference is revealed by electrophoresis in case of migration of amino acids.
Introduction: Electrophoresis and fingerprinting techniques are effective tools for the determination of migrating abilities of different types of macromolecules.

- A plaque assay is performed beginning with 1 mL of a solution containing bacteriophages. This solution is serially diluted three times by combining 0.1 mL of each sequential dilution with 9.9 mL of liquid medium. Then 0.1 mL of the final dilution is plated in the plaque assay and yields 17 plaques.

After isolating the protein, the student characterized the isolate using the Bradford assay. Standard solutions of bovine serum albumin (BSA) were prepared and 0.1 ml of each solution was subjected to Bradford assay. Absorbance readings were made at 595 nm and summarized below. Concentration of Absorbance at BSA (mg/mL) 595 nm 1.2 1.12 1.0 0.97 0.8 0.79 0.6 0.59 0.4 0.37 0.2 0.17 The student found out that 0.1 mL sample of the protein extract from mungbean gave an absorbance of 0.83 in the same assay. 1. How much was the concentration of the protein in the mungbean sample (in mg/mL)? Show all equations and calculations. 2. Draw a graph for the readings of the standard solutions and absorbances. Indicate the approximate location of the calculated concentration of the mungbean sample in your graph.arrow_forward

- Hemoglobin, a protein found in red blood cells, carries oxygen. Abnormal hemoglobin cannot carry as much oxygen as normal hemoglobin. The sequences below show sections of the DNA sequence that produce both the normal and abnormal types of hemoglobin.

First, go to the NCBI homepage using the link on the lab webpage, or by going to: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Select “Gene” from the database pulldown menu. Type “PTGS” in the search box, then click “Go.” Scan the results for the “Homo sapiens” entries. There should be one called “PTGS1” and one called “PTGS2.” Select each entry by clicking on its name, then read the paragraph under the “Summary” section for each entry. The drug Celebrex selectively inhibits PTGS2 while aspirin and other NSAID’s inhibit both PTGS1 and PTGS2 in the same way. Why do you think researchers wanted to discover a selective inhibitor to PTGS2? 2. Describe how studying 3-D structures of PTGS1 and PTGS2 could help researchers design a drug that binds to PTGS1, but not to PTGS2.arrow_forwardIn general, what is the purpose of washing the red blood cell prior to testing?
