Consider the role of Histidine in the Serine protease mechanism and sketch a plot showing
the predicted pH profile of chymotrypsin which has a pH optimum of approximately ~8. The pk,
for the His in the catalytic triad is 7.3 in free chymotrypsin which increases to greater than 8 with
a bound peptide. Be sure to label the plot axes and indicate the pka of His on the plot,

De novo purine biosynthesis is a 10-step pathway that builds the purine rings one atom, or one group of atoms, at a time. The
pathway converts 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP) to inosine monophosphate (IMP).
