Agbay, Philip D.1. For a given species of an enzyme that doubles every 3 hours, what is the mass of the biomass that may be expected from 100 liters of seed if each liter contains 8 grams biomass the first order removal rate constant is 2.6 per hour. SOLUTION:t = ln 3 hr = ln k = 0.231Using the obtained value of k = 0.231, and substituting to the new conditionst = ln 24 = ln C = 204 kg

2. A mouse-mouse hybrodoma cell line is used to produce monoclonal antibody. Growth in batch culture is monitored with the following data.

(a) Determine the specific growth rate during the growth phase.(b) What is the culture doubling time

SOLUTION:(a) The data are plotted as in Figure E8.1.

= 0.67 d 1

(b) The doubling time is:t2 = ln 2/0.67 = 1.00 day

3. In an experiment conducted to evaluate the Michaelis Menten constant, it was found out that 1 g of bacteria could decompose the waste at a maximum rate of 35 g/day when the waste concentration was high. It was also found that the same quantity of bacteria would decompose waste at a rate of 18 g/day when the waste concentration was 20 mg/L. Calculate the rate of waste decomposition by 2 grams of bacteria if the waste concentration were maintained at 8 mg/L.

SOLUTION:V = Vmax Km = 18.89

Vmax = K3 EoK3 = 35 / day

V = K3 Eo = 35 x 2 x V = 20.8256 / day

SOLUTION: We can use the Lineweaver-Burk equation for the analysis. For this, the reciprocals of the entries in Table 1 must be calculated and then plotted as shown in Fig. 1.

Dimayuga, Evytte M. 1. From the following kinetic data, estimate Vmax and Km for the catalysis of Substrate 1 by the enzyme Questionase. Draw a curve for the data you would expect to observe for Substrate 2 if Km = 30 uM for this substrate (assuming the both have the same Vmax).

Solution: Determining Vmax for Substrate 1 might vary, depending on how you draw the curve. The value of Vmax = 200 uM/sec) was used to calculate values for the data. Whatever you chose, Km will be determined from the substrate concentration that gives you Vmax/2. Your curve for Substrate 2 might look a little different as well.

2. If [Questionase] = 0.05 uM, calculate kcat for Substrate 1 and what would be the value for kcat/Km in units of M-1s-1? (Hint: you need to convert Km to units of Molar)

SolutionVmax = kcat [Etotal]

kcat = Vmax / [Questionase]= (200 uM/sec)/0.05 uM= 4000 s-1Km = 10 uM= 10 x 10-6 M= 1 x 10-5 Mkcat/Km= (4 x 103 s-1)/(1 x 10-5 M)= 4 x 108 M-1 s-1.

3. Immobilized enzyme beads of 0.6 cm diameter contain an enzyme which converts a substrate S to a product P by an irreversible, unimolecular enzyme reaction with Km0.012 kmolm_3 and a maximum rate Vmax3.6_10_7 kmol (kg-bead)_1 s_1.

Determine the effectiveness factor and the initial reaction rate, when the substrate concentration is 0.6 kmolm_3.

Solution

The value of the Thiele modulus is calculated from Equation 7.21.

In this experiment, the chemical engineering students of Batangas State University were tasked to determine the velocity of enzymatic reaction using Michealis-Menten constant via the Lineweaver-Burke Plot when the particular aqueous substrate generated 3000 Pascals of osmotic pressure upon diffusion in an organic cell of a human body in normal temperature. Solution:To solve this problem, the Michaelis-Menten constant (Km), limiting or maximum velocity (Vmax), and the substrate concentration (S) must be determined.

For Km and Vmax:Plot the data using Lineweaver-Burke plot by designating x as 1/S and y as 1/-rs.

Thus, the y-intercept is 1/Vmax and Km/Vmax is the slope.From the plot, the y-intercept is 4.9760 x 10-8 L-s/mmol.1/Vmax = 4.9760 x 10-8 L-s/mmolVmax = 2.0096463 x 107 mmol/L-s

From the plot, slope = 8.1515 x 10-8 sKm/Vmax = 8.1515 x 10-8 sKm = 2.0096463 x 107(8.1515 x 10-8)Km = 1.63816 mmol/L

To solve for the concentration of substrate:Because the substrate is an organic substance, vant Hoff factor = 1, and the temperature of a normal body is around 37C. Gas constant is taken as 0.08206 atm-L/mol-K.3000/101325 = M(0.08206)(37+273.15)(1)M = 1.163325 x 10-3 mol/LM or S = 1.1633256 mmol/L

The equation for Michaelis-Menten Theory: v = Vmax[S]/(Km + [S])v = 2.0096463 x 107(1.1633256)/(1.63816 + 1.1633256)v = 8.345109 x 106 mmol/L-sPROBLEM NO. 2 ARE YOU STILL THE FASTEST?

After a whole school year, the new batch of fifth year chemical engineering students at Batangas State University learned about carbonic anhydrase. Because of their fascination, they were eager to determine if the newly synthesized compound could increase the speed even more. They found the enzyme inside a cooler and added the compound. However, the professor came and he was angry telling that he was extrapolating the enzymes speed.Here are the data written in his notes:1. 0.0172 % mol/V (in L) is dissolved in the aqueous solution.2. The plot of Lineweaver-Burke is accurate in dealing with the kinetics.Later, the professor found out that the students added a compound in the enzyme. The furious professor asked for how much amount, but the students only said it was strychnine. The professor was infuriated even more shouting, Its a very poisonous competitive inhibitor! Go back to the lab and determine how much you added, unless you will not graduate this school year!The only test the student made was a speed test which resulted to 1.13 x 104 mmol/L-s at the given enzyme concentration. They also found that it was indeed a competitive inhibitor with KI = 2.1388 mmol/L. Help the students in determining the strychnine concentration.

Solution:

To determine the amount of the competitive inhibitor, the data given in problem number 1 must be utilized prior to the fact that it is accurate in dealing with the kinetics. The obtained constants will be used to solve for the concentration of the said inhibitor.Using the obtained constants: Km = 1.63816 mmol/L and Vmax = 2.0096463 x 107 mmol/L-s, and on the basis of 1 L solution of enzyme:

S = 0.172/100 = 1.72 x 10-4 mol/LS = 0.172 mmol/L

The equation for competitive inhibition is given by:v = Vmax[S]/{[S] + Km(1 + [I]/KI)}1.13 x 104 = 2.0096463 x 107[0.172]/{[0.172] + 1.63816(1 + [I]/2.1388)}[I] = 397.01404 mmol/LThus the students added 0.39701 M strychnine.

PROBLEM NO. 3 MY PROFESSOR IS CURIOUSAfter determining the concentration, the professor was impressed and got the idea of determining an aid in HIV. To accomplish this, he needs the constant of inhibition provided by the enzyme peptide-based HIV-1 protease. He has done researches about the inhibitor.1. HIV-1 protease is an organic compound exhibiting uncompetitive inhibition to carbonic anhydrase.2. Its aqueous solution lowers the freezing point of water to -0.0771C.3. It forms an enzyme-substrate complex with the carbonic anhydrase that follows Lineweaver-Burke plot.4. The inhibitor affects the speed of an enzyme by lowering the speed three-folds.As compensation to what the students did, the whole batch was assigned to rework the enzyme and determine the constant of inhibition (KI) of HIV-1 protease for the professor to formulate the medicine. The aqueous enzyme is preserved inside the refrigerator with the freezing point lowered by 0.0122 K.

To determine the concentration of the substrate and the inhibitor:T = KfmiFor HIV-1 protease: 0 + 0.0771 = 1.86(m)(1)m = 0.04145 m ~ 0.014145 mol/L[I] = 41.45161 mmol/LFor carbonic anhydrase:0.0122 = 1.86(m)(1)m = 6.5591 x 10-3 m ~ 6.5591 x 10-3 mol/L[S] = 6.55914 mmol/L

At [S] = 6.55914 mmol/L, evaluate the speed (v).v = Vmax[S]/(Km + [S])v = 2.0096463 x 107(6.55914)/(1.63816 + 6.55914)v = 1.60804 x 107 mmol/L-s

Substituting to the equation for uncompetitive inhibition by dividing the obtained speed by three (3) since it reduces three-folds:

v = Vmax[S]/{Km + [S](1 + [I]/KI}1.60804 x 107/3 = 2.0096463 x 107(6.55914)/{1.63816 + 6.55914(1 + 41.45161/KI)}KI = 16.56972 mmol/L

The inhibition brought by HIV-1 protease is 16.56982 mmol/L. Maybel De La CruzBS ChE5201Enzyme Kinetics
