If pH > pI‚ then the protein will have a negative charge and if pH < pI‚ the protein will have a positive charge. Buffer I has a pH >5‚ meaning both proteins carry a negative charge and bind to the DEAE (a positively charged resin). (b) pH = pKa + log10(Base/Acid) [Base = mM of sodium acetate; Acid = mM of acetic acid] = 4.7 + log10 (40/40) = 4.7 In order for the catalase to elute from the column‚ it must have lost its negative charge and stopped binding to the DEAE.

Purpose Determine which kinds of reactions involve electron transfer as the driving force. Background Redox (reduction-oxidation) reactions include all chemical reactions in which atoms have their oxidation state changed. So‚ when a metal and a nonmetal react‚ there is an ionic bond formed‚ which means one of them loses electrons while the other gains them. Since this reaction involves the exchange of electrons it is termed as a redox reaction. The oxidation states in a metal- nonmetal are simple

1: INTRODUCTION When studying the function of catalysts in reactions during the kinetics unit‚ I was eager to know more about the position of enzymes‚ which function as biological catalysts in biological systems. After doing some further research‚ I found that catalase‚ an enzyme‚ which is found in nearly all living organisms such as animals‚ catalyses the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the blood. H2O2 is produced by reactions in the white blood cells in our body to fight against diseases

Introduction: A chemical reaction involves the breaking and forming of bonds in order to create the necessary energy required to cause movement. Each reaction is catalyzed (an increase in rate because of a present catalyst) by a specific enzyme. Enzymes are able to denature proteins‚ meaning that a protein loses its original shape by uncoiling‚ giving it a random‚ unstructured shape. The pineapple plant contains bromelain which‚ because of its unique characteristics‚ keeps gelatin from thickening

In this lab my group and I tested to see how yeast would react to different substances. Yeast is a fungi that releases carbon dioxide which can be used in the process of bread making. During this lab we used sugar‚ warm water‚ cornstarch‚ yeast‚ a gas sensor‚ plastic cylinders‚ and a laptop. The process of this lab was to create cellular respiration‚ which is what cells do to break up sugars into a form that the cell can use as energy. When yeast and a certain substance were combined‚ this substance

Enzyme Controlled Reactions 1) Describe the relationship between substrate concentration and the initial reaction rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction. Is this a linear relationship? What happens to the initial reaction rate as substrate concentration increases? A) The relationship between the substrate concentration and the initial reaction of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction is very productive‚ but is dramatically affected by the pH level of the given solution. The most productive pH level is
