Textbook Question
Chapter 9, Problem 3P
Answers to all problems are at the end of this book. Detailed solutions are available in the Student Solutions Manual, Study Guide, and Problems Book.
- Understanding the Densities of Membrane Components Sucrose gradients for separation of membrane proteins must be able to separate proteins and protein—lipid complexes with a wide range of densities, typically 1.00 to 1.35 g/mL.
a. Consult reference books (such as the CRC Handbook of Biochemistry ) and plot the density of sucrose
solutions versus percent sucrose by weight (g sucrose per 100 g solution), and versus percent by volume (g sucrose per 100 mL solution). Why is one pint linear and the other plot curved?
b. What would be a suitable range of sucrose concentrations for Separation of three membrane-derived protein—lipid examples with densities of 1.03, 1.07, and 1.08 g/mL?

What is the importance of glutamic acid in the metabolism of nitrogen from amino acids? (we know therole; it’s used to remove the nitrogen from amino acids so that the remaining carbon skeleton can bebroken down by the “usual” pathways, but what is the important, unique role that only glutamicacid/glutamate can do?)
