- Concentrations in biochemical systems are often very dilute. Consequently, scientific notation and logarithms are often used to express concentrations. In scientific notation, numbers are expressed as coefficient x 10" To convert a number to scientific notation, proceed as follows: 1. Move the decimal place so that there is one digit in front of the decimal. 2. Account for the moved decimal in the value of x. If the decimal moved to the right, x is negative; if it moved to the left, x is positive. A logarithm is basically an exponent. Unless otherwise indicated, a logarithm is the a of 10". The numbers after the decimal point are significant; the number before the decimal just identify the location of the decimal point for the number. Notice that it is easy to estimate a logarithm from scientific notation; it's the exponent! Logarithms are commonly used to express the concentration of H. The pH is defined as pH= log (In), where the base number is 2.303. The same general rules as logs…A purified protein sample was used in a reaction, resulting in an activity of 696.7 nmol min-1.

- You are working on an enzyme that obeys standard Michaelis-Menten kinetics. What variable is the V, dependant on if the concentration of the substrate is substantially higher than the concentration of the enzyme? [S] [E] [ES] O [P] O not enough information providedMike has determined that enzyme he is attempting to purify has an isoelectric point of 4.5 (pI = 4.5). He has decided to examine anion exchange chromatography as a potential purification step. He tested out using 2 different buffer and linear NaCl gradient on HPLC (like what you did). His results are shown below. Which buffer should Mike uses for his purification (both buffer has pH higher than enzyme’s pI)? Why?Enzyme A catalyzes the reaction S → P and has a KM of 50 μM and a Vmax of 100 nM s–1. EnzymeB catalyzes the reaction S → Q and has a KM of 5 mM and a Vmax of 120 nM s–1. When 100 μM ofS is added to a mixture containing equal amounts of enzymes A and B, which reaction product (Por Q) will be more abundant after 1 minute of reaction?
