Chapter 27, Problem 27.68AP
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The reason as to why the denaturation of protein occurs when they are extracted from membranes into an aqueous buffer is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Denaturation of protein is the dissociation of the secondary and tertiary structure of proteins. It is possible through a variety of reagents and reaction conditions. The primary structure remains the same after denaturation. The one common example of denaturation is a coagulation of protein.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The explanation for the prevention of the denaturation of protein when they are extracted from membranes with detergents is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Denaturation of protein is the dissociation of the secondary and tertiary structure of proteins. It is possible through a variety of reagents and reaction conditions. The primary structure remains the same after denaturation. The one common example of denaturation is a coagulation of protein.

The activity of an enzyme requires a glutamic acid to display its -COOH functional group in the protonated state. Suppose the pK, of the -COOH group is 4.07. (a) Will the enzyme be more active at pH 3.5 or 4.5? Explain. (b) What fraction of the enzymes will be active at pH = 4.07? Explain. (c) At what pH will the enzyme show 78% of maximal activity?
What is K. for the reaction? Express your answer using two significant figures.
4) In the lab you are extracting and enzyme called catalase from a potato and want to use this enzyme to speed up a reaction in the lab. The potato usually grows in soil pH of 5.5 and a temperature of 18 °C. You extract the enzyme and run a reaction with it in the following conditions. pH 9.5 and temperature = 20 °C. What can be said about the enzymes activity? If activity is low how would you correct this issue? Please explain in detail and in your own words.
