Chapter 24, Problem 5P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Stoichiometry of the stearoyl-CoA desaturase should be convinced correct.

Concept Introduction:

In eukaryotes, addition of double bond to fatty acids does not occur until the fatty acid chain occupied its full length. But the dehydrogenation of stearoyl-CoA occurs in the middle of the chain

  Stearoyl-CoA + NADH + H+ + O2 Oleoyl-CoA + 2 H2O

Above reaction is catalyzed by stearoyl-CoA desaturase enzyme. This enzyme has a nonheme iron center. NADH and O2 is required to run this reaction. As well as, two other proteins cytochrome b5 reductase and cytochrome b5 are needed. These three proteins are incorporated with ER membrane.

9) Below, there is a representation of an SDS-PAGE gel. Assuming the samples in the MW standard have masses of: 66 kDa, 45 kDa, 36 kDa, 29 kDa, 24 kDa, 20.1 kDa, and 14.2 kDa, a) Figure 4: indicate where each of the measurements were taken and label as in II.6. figure 2 above. b) As in II.7. Table 1 above create Table 2 using the data below. Determine the r.f. values for the MW standards, plot the relative mobility versus the log of the mass for the standards, and use the best fit straight line to determine the molecular weights of the proteins in the whey, peak 1, and peak 2 lanes. (5 pts—this will be scaled up appropriately if your gel did not develop properly) dye MW Whey Peak 1 Peak 2
what are the different classes and some examples of neuroprotectants that can be used to treat, prevent, or combat neurotoxicity/a neurotoxicant...for example, antioxidants, nutraceuticals, etc.,..?
Imagine that aldolase can react with the seven carbon molecule Sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphate (below). Use the mechanism to predict the two products generated. Please draw out the stereochemistry in a fischer projection.
