If you were given the task of determining the approximate % solute of potato cells. You decide to set up a series of 10 cups ranging from dH2O to 1% sucrose solution. You intend to drop a potato stick in each cup. a. What data would I need to collect for each potato stick?  b. Why would I need to look for the solutions that have no effect on the potato stick?

Non-specific interactions present a real challenge to co-IP experiments because non-physiological binding to the target complex is likely to occur. Group of answer choices True False

In an experiment, three batches of the same enzyme were incubated with 5 mM of substrate and 2 mM of inhibitor. In each batch, the inhibitor was of a different type: a.Batch 1: competitive inhibitor b.Batch 2:uncompetitive inhibitor c.Batch 3:non-competitive inhibitor Assuming that Vmax = 80 mM s', Km = 8 mM, and Kiof all three inhibitors was 10 mM, which of the inhibitors was the most efficient on Vo? Explain your answer.

6. A valid question for Jim's next experiment would be? a) is strawberry production different in lime treated vs. normal (unacidic) soil? b) Does Jim really like strawberries? c) Are strawberries always red? d) Will strawberries be available in the market? 7. Your tire blew out on the way coming to this exam. What would your hypothesis for the cause of the blowout be? a) A nail pricked into the tire b) The weather was bad c) Your dog chewed on the tire d) Tires are made to blow out 8. A scientist testing the affects of a chemical on apple yield sprays an orchard with the chemical. A second orchard does not receive the chemical. In the fall, the number of apples harvested from each forest is counted. Which of the following is the independent (manipulated) variable in the experiment? a) chemical b) Number of apples c) First orchard d) Second orchard 9.

Which of the following is true about a mixed type inhibition? a. None of these is true b. A Lineweaver-Burk plot will give parallel lines c. The lines of a Lineweaver-Burk graph will cross in the top left quadrant d. The KM will change but not the Vmax

You design an enzyme assay and choose a substrate concentration equal to the Km of the enzymatic reaction. You measure the rate of the reaction at this substrate concentration to be 75.0 μmol/min. Calculate the Vmax of this reaction in μmol/min. Express your answer with one decimal place.  Your previous attempt suffered from low signal-to-noise ratio when you used a substrate concentration equal to the Km. So you decide to increase the substrate concentration to 0.45 mM. You remeasure the rate of the reaction at this new substrate concentration and find it to be 135.0 μmol/min. Using the same Vmax value found above, calculate the Km value of this enzymatic reaction. Express your answer in μM with one decimal place.  Considering the previous two questions, what would be the rate of the reaction at a substrate concentration of 0.01 mM? Express your answer in μmol/min with one decimal place.
