(a) At what substrate concentration would an enzyme with a kcat of 30.0 s−1 and a Km of 0.0050 M operate at one-quarter of its maximum rate? (b) Determine the fraction of Vmax that would be obtained at the following substrate concentrations [S]: ½Km, 2Km, and 10Km. (c) An enzyme that catalyzes the reaction X ⇌ Y is isolated from two bacterial species. The enzymes have the same Vmax but different Km values for the substrate X. Enzyme A has a Km of 2.0 μM, and enzyme B has a Km of 0.5 μM. The plot below shows the kinetics of reactions carried out with the same concentration of each enzyme and with [X] = 1 μM. Which curve corresponds to which enzyme?

The missing graph is in the attachment.

Answer: (a) [S] = 0.0016M

              (b) Vmax = 3V; Vmax = [tex]\frac{3V}{2}[/tex]; Vmax = [tex]\frac{11V}{10}[/tex]

              (c) Enzyme A: black graph; Enzyme B = red graph

Explanation: Enzyme is a protein-based molecule that speed up the rate of a reaction. Enzyme Kinetics studies the reaction rates of it.

The relationship between substrate and rate of reaction is determined by the Michaelis-Menten Equation:

[tex]V=\frac{V_{max}[S]}{K_{M}+[S]}[/tex]

in which:

V is initial velocity of reaction

Vmax is maximum rate of reaction when enzyme's active sites are saturated;

[S] is substrate concentration;

Km is measure of affinity between enzyme and its substrate;

(a) To determine concentration:

[tex]0.25V_{max}=\frac{V_{max}[S]}{0.005+[S]}[/tex]

[tex]0.25V_{max}(0.005+[S])=V_{max}[S][/tex]

[tex]0.00125+0.25[S]=[S][/tex]

0.75[S] = 0.00125

[S] = 0.0016M

For a Km of 0.005M, substrate's concentration is 0.0016M.

(b) Still using Michaelis-Menten:

[tex]V=\frac{V_{max}[S]}{K_{M}+[S]}[/tex]

Rearraging for Vmax:

[tex]V_{max}=\frac{V(K_{M}+[S])}{[S]}[/tex]

(b-I) for [S] = 1/2Km

[tex]V_{max}=\frac{V(K_{M}+0.5K_{M})}{0.5K_{M}}[/tex]

[tex]V_{max}=\frac{V(1.5K_{M})}{0.5K_{M}}[/tex]

[tex]V_{max}=[/tex] 3V

(b-II) for [S] = 2Km

[tex]V_{max}=\frac{V(K_{M}+2K_{M})}{2K_{M}}[/tex]

[tex]V_{max}=\frac{V(3K_M)}{2K_M}[/tex]

[tex]V_{max}=\frac{3V}{2}[/tex]

(b-III) for [S] = 10Km

[tex]V_{max}=\frac{V(K_{M}+10K_M)}{10K_M}[/tex]

[tex]V_{max}=\frac{V(11K_{M})}{10K_{M}}[/tex]

[tex]V_{max}=\frac{11V}{10}[/tex]

(c) Being the affinity between enzyme and substrate, the lower Km is the less substrate is needed to reach half of maximum velocity.

Km of enzyme A is 2μM and of enzyme B is 0.5μM.

Enzyme B has lower Km than enzyme A, which means the first will need a lower concnetration of substrate to reach half of Vmax.

Analyzing each plot, notice that the red-coloured graph reaches half at a lower concentration, therefore, red-coloured plot is for enzyme B, while black-coloured plot is for enzyme A

You are asked to devise a procedure for quality control in a fertilizer plant to check that the nitrogen and phosphorus content is within a specified range. You decide on the outlined steps to monitor a production run of 1000 bags of fertilizer. A. A 50 g sample is removed from every 100th bag of fertilizer produced, resulting in ten 50 g samples. B. Samples 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 are thoroughly mixed and a 50 g sample of the mixture is removed. C. Samples 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 and the 50 g sample from the mixture are taken to the analytical laboratory. D. Each 50 g sample is separately dissolved in a fixed volume of water and the solution is filtered to determine the quantity of insoluble material. E. Separate aliquots of the water solutions are subjected to the procedures of phosphorus and nitrogen analysis.

geochemist measures the concentration of salt dissolved in Lake Parsons and finds a concentration of 3.89·gL−1. The geochemist also measures the concentration of salt in several nearby non-isolated lakes, and finds an average concentration of 2.1·gL−1. Assuming the salt concentration in Lake Parsons before it became isolated was equal to the average salt concentration in nearby non-isolated lakes, calculate the percentage of Lake Parsons which has evaporated since it became isolated. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
