CK (38 -174 U/L normal range) and CK-MB (0- 24 U/L normal range) assays: give 3 or more examples of diseases or circumstances that could cause patient results outside the expected range. The CK-MB reagent contains the chemical components for the same enzymatic reactions that the CK reagent does. Explain briefly how we are able to measure only the CK-MB activity with the CK-MB kit.

8 The optimal temperature for the action of lactate dehydrogenase is 36°C. It is irreversibly inactivated at 85°C, but a yeast containing this enzyme can survive for months at —10°C. Explain how this can happen.
5 At a very low concentration of a certain substrate, we find that when the substrate concentration doubles, the rate of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction also doubles. Would you expect the same finding at a very high substrate concentration? Explain.
You performed a kinetic study of the enzyme lipase and you obtained the following double reciprocal (Lineweaver-Burk) plot: 4 y = 4.3511x + 1.8889 %3D 1 -0.5 -0.3 -0.1 0.1 0.3 0.5 0.7 0.9 1/[S] When you performed the same kinetic study in the presence of an inhibitor, you obtained a new line that had y-intercept 3 and x-intercept -0.3. Based on this information select all correct statements about this inhibitor. This is mixed inhibitor. When this inhibitor is present apparent Km of enzyme decreases. This inhibitor prevents substrate from binding to the enzyme. This is uncompetitive inhibitor. When this inhibitor is present apparent Vmax of enzyme decreases. When this inhibitor is present apparent Km of enzyme increases. This inhibitor can bind to either enzyme or enzyme-substrate complex.
Could someone explain what this is saying? I would like a better understanding. FIGURE D CPP32 (Caspase-3) protease activity. Aliquots of cell lysates (50μL) were incubated with an equal volume (50 μL) of the reactionbuffer and 5 μL of 7-amino-4-trifluoromethyl coumarin (AFCDEVD) for 1 hour at 37˚C (Clontech). The shift in fluorescenceemission of AFC-DEVD, on its proteolysis to free AFC by theprotease, was detected in a fluorometer, using a 400 nm excitationfilter and 505 nm emission filter.
