Questions;
Thomas was purifying an enzyme from a homogenate of muscle cells. He went through seven steps of purification and found that the enzyme activity was the same as the homogenate value. On the eighth step, when the protein washighly pure, the enzyme activity rose to five times that of the homogenate value. Can you suggest a possible reason?
A. the homogenate assay was wrong
B. step eight has co-purified an activator of the enzyme.
C. the enzyme has an inhibitor present in the muscle cell homogenate
D. the temperature at step eight was just right for the enzyme activity.
Follow up question:...
The answer given in problem 31. 17 is inadequate for me, and I simply don't understand the explanation for the answer...
The problem is: Ribosoms were isolated from bacteria grown in a "heavy" medium (13C and 15N) and from bacteria grown in "light" medium (12C and 14N). These 70S ribosoms were added to an in vitro system engaged in protein synthesis. An aliquot removal serveral hours later was analyzed by density-gradient centrifugation. How many bands of 70S ribosoms would you expect to see in the density gradient?
Is it possible to give a more comprehensive explanation? :)
Expert Solution
Step 1
Introduction :-
A ribosome is a sophisticated molecular machine that produces proteins from amino acids during the process of protein synthesis, also known as translation. Protein synthesis is a fundamental operation that all live cells must carry out.
Step 2
Answer :-
One light band, one heavy band, a hybrid of light 30S and heavy 50S, and a hybrid…

- To approximate the concentration of enzymes in a bacterial cell, assume that the cell contains equal concentrations of 1,000 different enzymes in solution in the cytosol and that each protein has a molecular weight of 100,000. Assume also that the bacterial cell is a cylinder (diameter 1.0 μm, height 2.0 μm), that the cytosol (specific gravity 1.20) is 20% soluble protein by weight, and that the soluble protein consists entirely of enzymes. Calculate the average molar concentration of each enzyme in this hypothetical cell.arrow_forward) To better understand how the lacR works, let's start let's approximate the volume of a bacterial cell by treating it as a cylinder with radius that is 0.5 um and length that is 2 um. What is the volume of the cylinder in liters, L)? Next, let's calculate the concentrations of the lacR (ligand) and the operator site (Op) (primary receptor) in this volume. There are 10 lacR molecules in the cell and 1 operator site. Using this information calculate [lacR] and [Op] in molar units in one cell? (see eq. 13.17 and 13.18).arrow_forwardI.
