Chapter 23, Problem 5P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The advantages of numerous different active subunits in the proteasomes should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Proteasome is a composite of proteinases that are involved in the breakdown of specific intracellular proteins. ATP hydrolysis is a catabolic process that helps in releasing the chemical energy from the high-energy phospho-anhydride bonds in ATP. Energy is liberated by splitting these bonds.

Biological Molecules. How does Mycobacterium tuberculosis obtain the requirements to build its biological macromolecules? discussing where your bacteria gets its basic requirements for the elements of life - carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur. Basically the nutritional requirements, not specifically each element individually).
Just Arrange.  The enzyme serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) requires pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) as a cofactor. Arrange the steps of the likely mechanism for SHMT‑catalyzed serine degradation (producing glycine and N5,N10‑methylenetetrahydrofolate)
Fo-F1 ATPase. The energy for ATP synthesis from ADP and Pi is provided by the downhill transport of protons through the rotary FoF1 ATP synthase (lecture 22).   The enzyme has 3 a-b and 12 ‘c’ subunits. The mitochondrion maintains Df=180 mV (negative inside), pHin = 8, pHout=7, [Pi] = 3 mM and ADP is present as well. How much energy is available (from the proton electrochemical gradient) for ATP synthesis under these conditions (in kJ/mol)?                                                                                                                  What [ATP]/[ADP] ratio will be established at steady-state under these conditions?                                                                                                                                                What would be the [ATP]/[ADP] ratio if the enzyme had only 9 ‘c’ subunits? Remember that full revolution of the crank (gamma subunit) produces 3 ATP.
