Interpretation:

Each item should be matched with its description.

Concept introduction:

Phosphorolysis is analogous to hydrolysis.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

Each item should be matched with its description.

Concept introduction:

Transferases are enzymes that catalyzes the transfer of certain functional groups form one molecule to another.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

Each item should be matched with its description.

Concept introduction:

a-1,6-glucosidase is a glycogen debranching enzyme which involves in glycogen catabolism.

Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

Each item should be matched with its description.

Concept introduction:

The free glucose molecule released from the cleavage of glucosyl residue from glycogen after glycogen phosphorylase activity, has a phosphate group on C-1. This glucose-1-phosphate is not a useful metabolite. So it should be converted to glucose-6-phosphate.

Interpretation Introduction

(f)

Interpretation:

Each item should be matched with its description.

Concept introduction:

Phosphorylase kinase is a serine/threonine specific protein kinase.

Interpretation Introduction

(g)

Interpretation:

Each item should be matched with its description.

Concept introduction:

Protein kinase A perform several functions like regulation of glycogen, sugar and lipid metabolism. This enzyme activity depends on cyclic-AMP.

Interpretation Introduction

(h)

Interpretation:

Each item should be matched with its description.

Concept introduction:

Calmodulin is a calcium binding protein which is found in all eukaryotic cells. Ca2+ is required for the activation of calmodulin.

Interpretation Introduction

(i)

Interpretation:

Each item should be matched with its description.

Concept introduction:

Epinephrine is a hormone and also known as adrenaline. It is secreted by adrenal glands and used as a medication for various illnesses.

Interpretation Introduction

(j)

Interpretation:

Each item should be matched with its description.

Concept introduction:

From the reaction data below, determine whether the reaction is first order or second order and calculate the rate constant. Time (s) 0 Reactant (mM) 5.4 1 4.6 2 3.9 3 3.2 4 2.7 5 2.3 Only a plot of In[reactant] versus t gives a straight line, so the reaction is s-1. . The negative of the slope, k, is
A protein has a molecular mass of 400 kDa when measured by size-exclusion chromatography. When subjected to gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), the protein gives three bands with molecular masses of 180, 160, and 60 kDa. When electrophoresis is carried out in the presence of SDS and dithiothreitol (DTT), three bands again form, this time with molecular masses of 160, 90, and 60 kDa. How many subunits does the protein have, and what is the molecular mass of each? four subunits: 180, 160, 90, and 60 kDa three subunits: 180, 160, and 60 kDa three subunits: 160, 90, and 60 kDa four subunits: 160, 90, 90, and 60 kDa Correct Answer
