What is the role of a cofactor in enzyme activity?
An enzyme requires a Zn2+ ion in order to function correctly. In this case, the Zn2+ is a(n)
a. apoenzyme
b. coenzyme
c. cofactor
d. subunit
24. A substance that can bind to an enzyme at a location other than the active site and increase or decrease the activity of that enzyme is called a(n)
a. subunit
b. proenzyme
c. modulator
d. feedback inhibitor
3) The enzyme aldolase catalyzes the conversion of fructose-1,6-diphosphate (FDP)to dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) and glyceraldehide-3-phosphate (G3P). Thereaction isFDP ⇄ DHAP + G3P , ∆rG0(298.15 K) = 23.8 kJ mol−1In red blood cells the concentration of these species are [FDP] = 35 µM, [DHAP] =130 µM, and [G3P] = 15 µM. (Remember that 1.0 µM = 1.0 × 10−6 mol L−1. Thestandard state for reactions in solution can be taken as c0 = 1.0 mol L−1).Calculate ∆rG in a red blood cell at 25 0C. Will the reaction occur spontaneouslyin the cell at this temperature?
