Answer;
- 1.2 nM
Explanation;
-Smallest Km means highest affinity, can bind substrate better at lower concentrations. The relationship between rate of reaction and concentration of substrate depends on the affinity of the enzyme for its substrate. This is usually expressed as the Km (Michaelis constant) of the enzyme, an inverse measure of affinity
-Km is therefore, the concentration of substrate which permits the enzyme to achieve half Vmax. An enzyme with a high Km has a low affinity for its substrate, and requires a greater concentration of substrate to achieve Vmax.
Answer:
LPL Lipoprotein Lipase
Explanation:
LPL is a ubiquitous enzyme that is found in the lumen of blood capillaries. It hydrolyzes the tracilglycerols of lipoproteins rich in triacylglycerols and breaks them down to free fatty acids and glycerol, releasing them into muscle and adipose tissue. It also allows the uptake of the resulting free fatty acids by the underlying tissues.
The graph would be the 4th picture, a bell-shaped graph.
The optimum temperature should have the highest rate of enzyme activity. When the temperature is increased or decreased, the enzyme activity would be decreased. The graph that follows both conditions should have a bell shape graph.
Answer:
<u>Starch</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in plants and the glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,4 glycosidic linkage.
<u>Cellulose </u>is a structural component of the plant cell wall and glucose molecules are linked by beta 1,4 glycosidic linkage.
<u>Glycogen</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in animals and glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,6 glycosidic linkage.
Explanation:
All of these sugars are polysaccaride sugars containing large number of glucose subunits.
Starch is a polysaccharide extracted from agricultural raw materials. It contains amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is an un-branched chain polymer of D-glucose units while amylopectin is a branched chain polymer of D-glucose units.
Glycogen is the storage form of glucose in animals, It is stored in muscles and liver and it is a branched polysaccaride.
Cellulose is the storage form of glucose in plants and leaves.
