You were asked to perform an experiment using spectrophotometric analysis. The system that you are studying is a reaction catalyzed by the enzyme TDET and requires the coenzyme GWRM. In the reaction, substance SHARE is converted to a colored substance CRMSN that can be detected spectrophotometrically. All other substances will not absorb at the Amax of CRMSN. Test tube set-ups were prepared as follows: T1: SHARE + TDET T2: SHARE + TDET + GWRM T3: SHARE + TDET + GWRM + gradual heating until boiling T4: SHARE + TDET + GWRM + WARN* T5: TDET + GWRM *Substance WARN can bind to GWRM and prevent it from binding to TDET. QUESTION: Will product CRMSN form over time in the tubes you prepared? Complete the table below: Write a brief explanation Do you expect product CRMSN to be formed over for your answer. time?

Two experiments were performed with the enzymeribonuclease. In experiment 1 the effect of increasingsubstrate concentration on reaction velocity was measured.In experiment 2 the reaction mixtures were identical tothose in experiment 1 except that 0.1 mg of an unknowncompound was added to each tube. Plot the data accordingto the Lineweaver-Burk method. Determine the effect of theunknown compound on the enzyme’s activity. (Substrateconcentration is measured in millimoles per liter. Velocity ismeasured in the change in optical density per hour.)

The kinetics of this novel amylase were observed using lz in KI indicator to track the amount of starch at t-O min and t-1 min. They set up the following tubes and measured the absorbance after 1 minute of incubation. The reaction was stopped with HCl and 5 ml of Iz in KI indicator was added. One ml of each was used as sample in the spectrophotometer. Table 3.

Pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) is a coenzyme for the enzyme ornithine aminotransferase. The enzyme was purified from cells grow in PLP = deficient media as well as from cells grown in media that contained pyridoxal phosphate. The stability of the two different enzyme preparations was then measured by incubating the enzyme at 37°C for different lengths of time and then assaying for the amount of enzyme activity remaining. The following results were obtained. (a) Why does the amount of active enzyme decrease with the time of incubation? (b) Why does the amount of enzyme from the PLP deficient cells decline more rapidly?

after a 5 g onion sample is divided into two equal parts, heat treatment to one of these partsit is being implemented. Then both heat-treated and non-treated parts are 10 times their weightit is ground in an environment containing as much buffer and the determination of pyruvate in the supernatants obtainedit's being done.a) As a result of measurements taken at 520 nm; absorbance value for the heat-treated sample;it was found that the absorbance value in the sample that was not heat treated was 0.123 and the absorbance value in the sample that was not heat treated was 0.520.The equation of the calibration accuracy for pyruvate is that y = 0.1367x – 0.001 (nmol/mL)according to the onion sample; a) independent of alinase activity; b) dependent on alinase activityand c) calculate the total pyruvate amounts in terms of nmol/g of onion.b) How is there a relationship between the activity of the enzyme allinase in onions and the amount of pyruvate?Dec,please explain.
