In an experiment, mitochondria were suspended in a buffered medium. The Oz electrode was used to monitor 0, consumption and assayed for the presence of ATP. Figure 3 shows the respiratory control by following the oxygen utilization (solid line) and ATP synthesis (discontinuous line) in the isolated mitochondria with additions of succinate, ADP, orthophosphate, oligomycin and dinitrophenol (DNP). Comment on the observations and relate the effects of the compounds added to electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation. Add DNP Add oligomycin Add ADP + P Add succinate Time Figure 3 Og consumed ATP synthosized

I'm studing Cellular Respiration. We did a lab. We had technical difficulties... our CO2 gas sensor wasn't working properly. So I am curious, what trends SHOULD I have seen. We compared the CO2 output of bean sprouts vs mealworms. We tested at both room temp (27 degrees C) vs cold temp (15 degrees C) for both the mealworms and bean sprouts. I need to know the trends I should have seen, ie. does an animal or plant produces more C02 and why? Also does the the cool temp make the reduction in CO2 production? Thank you.
Azathioprine is an immunosuppressant drug used in kidney transplants. In vivo, azathioprine is metabolized to the hypoxanthine analog 6- mercaptopurine, which is then converted into 6-mercaptopurine ribose monophosphate, the active form of the drug. 6- Mercaptopurine ribose monophosphate also inhibits de novo purine synthesis, reducing uric acid levels in the blood and urine. However, when administered to Lesch – Nyhan patients, there was no effect on uric acid levels. Explain why this is the case.

On the right is a table comparing the rate of lac- tate production in hemolysates (lysed cells) of human RBCs as a function of pH with dif- ferent substrates introduced into the glyco- lytic pathway. The hemolysate was fortified with 30 μmoles substrate, 7.5 μmoles MgCl2, 10 μmoles disodium phosphate, 1.5 μmoles NAD and 5 μmoles ATP in a volume of 5 mL. The rate of lactate production is given as μmoles of lactate/g Hb/hr at 37° C, buffered to either pH 7.1 or 7.8, as indicated. According to the results in the table which glycolytic enzyme is rate-limiting? Explain. Glucose-6-phosphate Glucose-6-phosphate Fructose-1,6-diphosphate…
The following kinetic data were collected for prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase, an enzyme involved in pain and inflammation. Using data in the first two columns, use a graphical analysis to determine the Vmax and the Km of the enzyme. Ibuprofen (Advil) is an inhibitor of prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase. By inhibiting this enzyme, ibuprofen helps to reduce pain and fever. Using the data in the first and third columns, determine the type of inhibition that ibuprofen exerts on prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase. In the presence of the inhibitor, determine the Vmax and the Km of the enzyme.

It is required to recover active extracellular enzymes from a completed fermentation mediumthat also consists of proteins (<200,000 molecular weight cut-off (MWCO)) and bacterial cells (1-2μm). A cross-flow 0.35 μm microfiltration (MF) with retentate recycled back to the fermenter willbe used over a period of 5 hours during which time flux is assumed to decline linearly. After 5 hours, assuming 95% of the bacteria are retained and given the additionalinformation below, what is the concertation of bacteria remaining in the fermenter and what area,in m2 , of MF membrane is needed? Initial bacterial concentration = 1.2 gdcw /L (dcw = dry cell weight)Volume of medium at the beginning = 15 m3Volume of medium left in the fermenter after 5 hours filtering = 1 m3Initial (starting flux) = 6.5 x 10-5 m sec -1Final flux (after 5 hours of filtering) = 3.9 x 10-5 m sec -
