Chapter 31, Problem 47P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Effects on eIF-4 helicase activity in the presence of eIF-4H should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are the proteins, which are used during the initiation of the eukaryotic translation process. The function of these proteins is to stabilize the ribosomal complexes that are near the start codon on the mRNA strand.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The importance of measuring the helicase activity of eIF-4H as control should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are the proteins, which are used during the initiation of the eukaryotic translation process. The function of these proteins is to stabilize the ribosomal complexes that are near the start codon on the mRNA strand.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The ratio of eIF-4H and eIF-4 should be determined to attain optimal activity.

Concept introduction:

Eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are the proteins, which are used during the initiation of eukaryotic translation process. The function of these proteins is to stabilize the ribosomal complexes that are near the start codon on the mRNA strand.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The varying effect f eIF-4H with helix stability should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are the proteins, which are used during the initiation of the eukaryotic translation process. The function of these proteins is to stabilize the ribosomal complexes that are near the start codon on the mRNA strand.

Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

The effect of eIF-4H on the helicase activity of eIF-4A should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are the proteins, which are used during the initiation of eukaryotic translation process. The function of these proteins is to stabilize the ribosomal complexes that are near the start codon on the mRNA strand.

The preferred substrate is T because the enzyme half-saturates at 7.00 mM for T, but requires 28.0 mM for U, and 112 mM for S. b Question Content Area The rate constant k 2 with substrate S is 9.60×107 sec-1, with substrate T, k 2 = 6.00×104 sec-1, and with substrate U, k 2 = 2.40×106 sec-1. Calculate the catalytic efficiency with S, T, and U. Catalytic efficiency with S =  Catalytic efficiency with T =   Catalytic efficiency with U =   Does enzyme A use substrate S, substrate T, or substrate U with greater catalytic efficiency?
Fumerase catalyzes the conversion of fumerate to malate. fumerate + H2O ⇋ malate The turnover number, kcat, for fumerase is 8.00×102 sec-1. The Km of this enzyme for fumerate is 5.00×10-3 μmol mL-1.   a   In an experiment using 2.00×10-3 μmol·mL-1, what is Vmax?
Suppose you wanted to make a buffer of exactly pH 7.00 using KH2PO4 and Na2HPO4. If the final solution was 0.18 M in KH2PO4, you would need 0.25 M Na2HPO4. Now assume you wish to make a buffer at the same pH, using the same substances, but want the total phosphate molarity ([HPO42−]+[H2PO−4]) to equal 0.20 M. What concentration of the Na2HPO4 would be required?
