J. C. Servaites, in Plant Physiol. (1985) 78:839–843, observed that Rubisco from tobacco leaves collected before dawn had a much lower specific activity than the enzyme collected at noon. This difference persisted despite extensive dialysis, gel filtration, or heat treatment. However, precipitation of the predawn enzyme by 50% (NH4)2SO4 restored the specific activity to the level of the noon-collected enzyme. Suggest an explanation.

- The purpose of the progress curve is to determine if an enzymatic reaction rate remains constant for given concentrations of enzyme and substrate, for a given assay time (20 min).

The experiment consists of incubating a small amount of14C-labeled substrate (the pulse) with the yeast extract just long enough for each intermediate in the fermentation pathway to become labeled. The label is then “chased” through the pathway by the addition of excess unlabeled glucose. The chase effectively prevents any further entry of labeled glucose into the pathway.(a) If [1-14C]glucose (glucose labeled at C-1 with 14C) is used as a substrate, what is the location of 14C in the product ethanol? Explain.(b) Where would 14C have to be located in the starting glucose to ensure that all the 14C activity is liberated as 14CO2 during fermentation to ethanol?
