3) Suppose the major solutes in intact lysosomes are KCI (-0.1 M) and NaCl (-0.03 M). When isolating lysosomes, what concentration of sucrose is required in the extracting solution at room temperature (25°C) to prevent swelling and lysis? 4) The following questions will help you review and understand pH, pKa, and buffering by weak acids/bases. a) Water is a weak acid; write the ionization reaction of water and the expression that describes its K. (Hint: K, is the equilibrium constant for proton dissociation). b) What is the concentration of H* in a solution of water when the concentration of OH = 108 M? What is the pOH of this solution? What is the pH? Is the solution acidic or basic? c) Draw a titration curve for a molecule with a pKa = 4.7 and label all the axis, indicating clearly the buffering region and the pKa value. d) Calculate the fraction of histidine (amino acid shown below), that has its imidazole side chain protonated at pH 6.4. The pK, value for the imidazole group of histidine is 6. Protein CH₂ Protein NH NH pH5 pH 7 CH+H

The folding and unfolding rate constants for a myoglobin mutant have been determined. The unfolding rate constant ke-u = 3.62 x 10-55 and the folding rate constant ku-p = 255 s1, where Fis the folded protein and U is the unfolded (denatured) protein. For wild-type myoglobin, AG;u = +37.4 kJ/mol. Which myoglobin is more thermodynamically stable, the mutant or the wild-type?

Please consider Figures, 10.28, and Table 10.2 (attached), which contain data that were collected by Delph and Lively, are redepicted from their paper that was published in 1989, and for which information is provided on pp. 391-383 in the textbook (pp. 385-388 in the 4TH edition textbook); assess the lowercase-Roman-numeral-labelled statements that appear immediately below; and click the uppercase-letter-labelled response that is presented below and conveys the most accurate information. i. Germinated pollen grains in Fuchsia excorticata grow tubes that extend from the stigma, through the style, to the ovary, where one sperm unites with one egg; this requires approximately 3 days. ii. Before a Fuchsia excorticata flower can detach from the tree, an abscission zone must be developed; this typically requires 1.5 days. iii. Colour change in Fuchsia excorticata probably evolved as an adaptation to the physiologically constraining 4.5 days that are required for fertilisation and abscission…
