Question
You wish to separate and purify enzyme A from contaminating enzymes B and C. Enzyme A is found in the matrix of the mitochondria. Enzyme B is embedded in the mitochondrial membrane, and enzyme C is found in the peroxisome. Enzymes A and B have molecular weights of 60,000 Da. Enzyme C has a molecular weight of 100,000 Da. Enzyme A has a pI of 6.5. Enzymes B and C have pI values of 7.5. Design an experiment to separate enzyme A from the other two enzymes.

- 1st Bag: shredded wheat original cereal, Warm water, and yeast (no sugar) 2nd Bag: Cinamon Toast Crunch, Warm Water, and yeast 3rd Bag: Fruit Loops, Warm Water, and yeast (all these bags were placed under a heat lamp for 25 minutes) (After these bags were placed under the heat lamp and they all had different reactions after put under the heat lamp, due to the sugar contents in the cereals) So the question is: What is the relationship between the amount of sugar available to an organism and the carbon dioxide that is produced?arrow_forwardEvery valentine’s day, CVS sells chocolate-covered cherries. The chocolate-covered cherries are like a mini cake with a cherry inside. The cake comprises a combination of sucrose (powder sugar), butter, cherry juice, and an enzyme (invertase). While stored at 5.00C, the sucrose hydrolyzes to produce glucose and fructose. The mixture of the glucose and fructose is a liquid called invert sugar. Below you will find the concentration of sucrose in the cake as a function of time. For the cherries to be edible, more than 80% of the sucrose must be hydrolyzed. Before you start to answer the question, create a data table that comprises sucrose concentration in units of moles per liter.

Building on the results from this experiment, scientists decide to test the effect of varying the initial amount of NH3 on monomer formation. They set up the same simulation with the exception of starting with three different concentrations of NH3. The amounts of H2 and CH4 are kept constant in each treatment. They run five simulations per NH3 concentration, as well as five simulations that only have H2 and CH4.
