Chapter 11, Problem 30CQ
Summary Introduction

To explain: The reason behind optimum pH for the enzymes that are located in lysosome.

Concept introduction: Lysosome is a membrane bound organelle that contains hydrolytic enzymes that involve the breakdown of many biomolecules. Lysosome acts as digestive system of cell that degrades material outside the cell and also helps to digest its own compounds. Lysosome’s main function is degrading intracellular material.

Summary Introduction

To explain: The reason behind the protection of rest of the cell from the destructive power of these enzymes upon the accidental rupture of a lysosome.

Please help with this Mass Spectrometry Question. Thank you For the mass spec. shown in the attached image, please determine and give the amino acid sequence of the pentapeptide. Show which end is the amino terminus and which is the carboxy terminus. How does one arrive at the solution?
Draw a tripeptide of your choosing at pH 7. Have the N-terminus on the left and the C-terminus on the right. Then: Draw a triangle around the α-carbons. Draw a box around the R-groups. Circle the atoms capable of hydrogen bonding. Highlight the atoms involved in the formation of the peptide bonds. What type of structure have you drawn? (primary, secondary, tertiary or quaternary protein structure).
2. For the flow of fluid over a flat membrane of length 10cm, determine the length-average mass transfer coefficient. The relevant properties of the system are u=0.01cm²/s, D=5 x 106 cm²/s, and v = 5.0 cm/s.
