Question
You are trying to come up with a drug to inhibit the activity of an enzyme thought to have a role in liver disease. In the laboratory the enzyme was shown to have a Km of 1.0 x 10-6 M and Vmax of 0.1 micromoles/min.mg measured at room temperature. You developed a competitive inhibitor. In the presence of 5.0 x 10-5 M inhibitor, the apparent Km of the enzyme was found to be 1.5 x 10-5 M. What is the Ki of the inhibitor?

- Given this, if you used 6g of vitamin Z powder to make 20 ml of solution, what is the % concentration of this solution? (I gave the image since I don't know if that info is needed to solve this question.)It also gives a follow-up, if you can help here too: You work in a lab as a summer student. One of your tasks is to make sure that there is enough cell culture medium containing antibiotics to grow bacteria. One day you realize that there is only 5 ml of 10% Antibiotic stock solution in the freezer. You decide to use it all to prepare the working culture medium with 0.01% antibiotic. In the lab there is plenty of growth medium without antibiotics. (Note: dilution in medium is like dilution in water). You remember the equation to make dilutions of stock solutions. You usually use this formula to calculate the required volume of a stock solution, but you realize it can apply here as well, even though the unknown is the final volume. So, you make that dilution.

To verify the prepared concentrations, the samples were analyzed by measuring the absorbance at 280 nm in a short path length (5 mm) cuvette. The molar absorption coefficient for human insulin is approximately 5.875 x 10³ M-¹cm-¹. a. Calculate the extinction coefficient in mL mg-¹cm-¹. b.

Why is it not considered to be an accurate method for this purpose? It is very difficult to draw a straight line on a computer. It is very difficult to calculate the variables required for the "x" and "y" axis. It is more accurate to use the standard "V versus [S]" plot to determine Vmax and KM- The plot weights the least accurate data points the most heavily. It is no longer considered to be acceptable to extrapolate from known data.arrow_forward

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…arrow_forwardIn 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?
