Chapter 12, Problem 47Q
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
A brief report about the way in which the method of preparing sitagliptin using of enzymes has to be written by citing the source
Concept Introduction:
Drugs: Drugs are molecules which are taken from an external source to change the normal functioning of the body. The action of drug is in molecular level and the design of many drugs are in such a way that it mimics a particular neurotransmitter or hormone. Drugs bind with receptors showing an increased or decreased effect.

1.What makes ionic bonds different from covalent bonds? Explain with respect to the bond formation between MgCl2 and N2.
2. A group of young researchers was working on a biochemical pathway. At that time, they produced an enzyme having altered active site. Do you think, the activity of the new enzyme would differ from the original one? Why? On a different reaction they found, an enzyme works best at a temperature near about 30 degree Celsius. At 60 degree Celsius, the enzyme becomes inactivated. Briefly explain, why that enzyme is not working at elevated temperature?
what is a reason why company leaders would add melamine to their product to make the protein content appear higher than the actual amount of the product?
Describe two possible reasons for why food safety inspectors often use an overall nitrogen content test, instead of Bradford assay, to determine the protein content in a product.
You ask the individual if they are taking any non-prescription drugs. They tell you they recently started taking a coenzyme Q10 supplement based on a recommendation from a friend. The structure of coenzyme Q10 is shown below. Looking at the structure of the molecule, which one of the 4 major classes of macromolecules (carbohydrate, lipid, proteins or nucleotides) does it most closely resemble? Be sure to include specific chemical characteristics that support this decision.

- You're an undercover biological weapons agent who has been given an unknown liquid - you suspect that it is just sugar water (because you drank some by accident - you know you're not supposed to have food or drink in the lab, but you do it all the time, and it tasted sweet - plus you didn't die!) One of the tests you need to run is to see if it contains protein (remember, foreign proteins can cause severe immune responses which can be a powerful biological weapon). You set up 3 test tubes each with 10mL of the following: distilled water, gelatin solution and the unknown. The distilled water is clear, the gelatin solution is clear with a beige tint, and the unknown is clear. You use Biuret's Reagent - a dark blue dye which will turn a liquid sample purple in the presence of protein. 1. When Biuret's Reagen is added to the unknown, predict what color you expect it to become if the unknown is just sugar water: [a] (no change | blue | purple). 2.You included both a positive and negative…arrow_forwardFor years we’ve been told that eating fat will cause various health problems and have been warned to eliminate it from our diet. But now we know that not all fat is the same. By understanding the difference between good and bad fats and how to include more healthy fat in your diet, you can improve your mood, boost your energy and well-being, and even lose weight. Since fat is an important part of a healthy diet, rather than adopting a low-fat diet, it’s more important to focus on eating more beneficial “good” fats and limiting harmful “bad” fats. What is their experience with the health risks associated with ‘bad fat’ intake for example obesity, diabetes, heart disease, strokes, cancer, etc.? Why is eating healthy so important? What are are recommendations for maintaining a healthy diet of ‘good fats’? What's the deal with fats?arrow_forwardPAP Chemistry-2903012-42100P-1/ Le Chatelier's Principle/ Lesson 128 2. Zinc (Zn) granules react slowly with dilute hydrochloric acid (HCI), but much faster if the acid is concentrated. Zn(s) 2HCI(aq)ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g) Zinc + Hydrochloric Acid Zinc Chloride + Hydrogen What causes the reaction to proceed faster with concentrated acid? The concentrated hydrochloric acid causes more hydrogen gas to be produced. The pressure of hydrogen gas molecules increases as concentration increases. The concentrated hydrochloric acid molecules move faster than in dilute acid. There are more collisions between the zinc and concentrated hydrochloric acid. PREVIOUarrow_forward
- Enzymes function most efficiently at the temperature of a typical cell, which is 37 degrees Celsius. Increases or decreases in temperature can significantly lower the reaction rate. What does this suggest about the importance of temperature-regulating mechanisms in organisms? How does this translate to the development of enzyme assays for clinical laboratory testing equipment? Explain.arrow_forwardEnzyme b. Binding: Electrostatic Forces Substrates bind to receptors and enzymes through non-covalent interactions (intermolecular forces – IMF).
