Chapter 18, Problem 21DAP

(a)

Summary Introduction

To draw and name: The amino acids from which alpha keto acids were derived

Introduction:

An autosomal metabolic problem in the body indicates the maple syrup urine disease. This disease directly affects the branched chain amino acids. This situation results in sweet odor in urine. This is mainly seen in the children. The amino acids are organic compounds which consist of amine and carboxyl groups. These compounds are organic in nature. The amino acids combine with each other and form a protein structure.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The reason for most likely amino acid precursor of taurine.

Introduction:

An autosomal metabolic problem in the body indicates the maple syrup urine disease. This disease directly affects the branched chain amino acids. This situation results in sweet odor in urine. This is mainly seen in the children. Taurine is the amino acid that is majorly found in the tissues of animals. Taurine is an amino acid that is not normally found in proteins. Taurine is often produced as a byproduct of cell damage.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The amino acid that shows significant elevated level in the patient blood in January 1957 and also determine which amino acid is present in the urine of patient.

Introduction:

An autosomal metabolic problem in the body indicates the maple syrup urine disease. This disease directly affects the branched chain amino acids. This situation results in sweet odor in urine. This is mainly seen in the children. Dancis and coauthors concluded that although it appears most likely to the authors that the principal block is in the metabolic degradative pathway of the branched-chain amino acids.

(d)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The way in which data presented here supports the conclusion.

Introduction:

An autosomal metabolic problem in the body indicates the maple syrup urine disease. This disease directly affects the branched chain amino acids. This situation results in sweet odor in urine. This is mainly seen in the children. The data include the information about amino acids. Taurine is an amino acid which is not normally found in proteins. The amino acids combine with each other and form a protein structure.

(e)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The data which do not fit this model of maple syrup urine disease. Also determine the way in which these different data are contradictory.

Introduction:

An autosomal metabolic problem in the body indicates the maple syrup urine disease. This disease directly affects the branched chain amino acids. This situation results in sweet odor in urine. This is mainly seen in the children.

(f)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The data that need to be collected to be more secure in the conclusion.

Introduction:

An autosomal metabolic problem in the body indicates the maple syrup urine disease. This disease directly affects the branched chain amino acids. This situation results in sweet odor in urine. This is mainly seen in the children. The amino acids combine with each other and form a protein structure. Taurine is an amino acid that is not normally found in proteins. The data include the information about the amino acids.

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.
Background Freezing isn't the only challenge in cryopreservation - thawing can be just as difficult. A microwave oven seems like a nice solution, since it deposits energy quickly and microwaves are non-ionizing radiation (they do not cause DNA mutation). However, water absorbs microwaves more effectively than ice does, meaning that the portion of an organ that has already melted will get warmer at a higher rate than the remaining ice – the opposite of what we want! - The transmission of radiation through a weakly absorbing material such as ice or water can be modeled by Beer's law, which assumes that the rate of absorption at a depth x is proportional to the local radiation intensity I(x) times an absorption coefficient, which is often written as μ or a or just µ). Noting that absorption decreases the intensity, we can write a differential equation a Solving the differential equation with the boundary condition on the surface being gives the relationship For a standard microwave oven…
