- MATHEMATICAL An organic chemist is generally happy with 95% yields. If you synthesized a polypeptide and realized a 95% yield with each amino acid residue added, what would be your overall yield after adding 10 residues (to the first amino acid)? After adding 50 residues? After 100 residues? Would these low yields be biochemically satisfactory? How are low yields avoided, biochemically?arrow_forwardNeed help fast In the structure of Alkaline Phosphatase enzyme what is the distance between the metal ion and the phosphate atom?, the distance between that metal ion and the PO32- group within the active site, what are the 3 amino acids that coordinate the metal ion in the active site of the enzyme?, other metal ion is located close to the zinc atoms.arrow_forwardQuestion: Explain: Lipids supply more than twice as many calories as carbohydrates.

He went through seven steps of purification and found that the enzyme activity was the same as the homogenate value. On the eighth step, when the protein washighly pure, the enzyme activity rose to five times that of the homogenate value. Can you suggest a possible reason? A. the homogenate assay was wrong B. step eight has co-purified an activator of the enzyme. C. the enzyme has an inhibitor present in the muscle cell homogenate D. the temperature at step eight was just right for the enzyme activity.arrow_forwardQuestion:- How can we determine trans-membrane domains of proteins in the absence of crystal structure?arrow_forward
