Alcohol dehydrogenase (AD) is an enzyme which catalyzes the reaction of its natural substrate ethanol to form acetaldehyde.The Km of AD, from rhinoceros livers, for ethanol is 1 X 10-3M.
This enzyme is however somewhat non-specific and will recognize substrates other than ethanol. How would the kinetic plot be affected if AD were to separately catalyze methanol and isopropanol instead of ethanol?Assume that the overall Vmax remains the same in all 3 cases.
How would the Km change for methanol compared to ethanol (higher, lower, the same)?
How would the Km change for isopropanol compared to ethanol (higher, lower, the same)?
How would the Km's of methanol and isopropanol compare (which higher than the other or about the same).Based upon your knowledge of the mechanisms by which enzymes work, briefly explain how you decided to place your new Km's.
A condition known as icthyosis hystrix gravior appeared in a boy in the early eighteenth century. His skin became thick and formed loose spines that were sloughed off at intervals.
An enzyme and its substrate are combined in a test tube but no product is formed. Another molecule is added to the tube, and now the product is formed at the normal rate. Give 2 reasons.what type of inhibition is working on the substrate.
Why is it necessary to have a different mechanism for sexual reproduction, and how does the process of meiosis fulfill this purpose? What do you think are the advantages of this mechanism?
Explain how glycolysis becomes critical to cellular ATP production during severe hypoxia. Your answer should mention the allosteric regulators that accelerate glycolysis.

A zoologist is investigating a population of squirrels whose coat color is controlled by a single gene whose two alleles (B 1 & B 2 ) are codominant.
After some week's plants that were transplanted into nonsterile soil exhibited a much higher growth rate compared to the plants transplanted into sterile soil. What would be the most likely explanation for this result.
Determine which type of chromosome structure is characterized by the centromere position very near the end of the chromosome with the short arm composed of highly repetitive DNA?
What will be the net charge of a typical water-soluble protein at pH 3? Briefly describe how you arrive at your answer. Which residues will carry this charge?
You have screened for several new recessive mutations in a species of wasp. Wasps homozygous for apricot (aa) have pale orange eyes.
Two solutions of sodium acetate are prepared, one having a concentration of 0.1 M and the other having a concentration of 0.01 M. Calculate the pH values when the following concentrations of HCl have been added to each of these solutions: 0.0025M,..
