Protein X has a pI of 5.9, Protein Y has a pI of 7.6, and Protein Z has a pI of 8.5. For each of the methods below, describe how you would go about purfying Protein Y from Proteins X and Z (provide a pH that you would use and why.) Anion exchange chromatography: In anion exchange chromatography negatively charged ions will bind to the column. This will leave positively charged ions flushed through the column. By picking a pH of 6.5, protein X will flush through the column while protein Y and Z…

Bella Sowers NUTR 104 May 12, 2018 A4 -Ergogenic Aids Whey Protein The ergogenic aid I chose is called whey protein which is used by athletes in all different physical activities. It is a mixture of globular proteins from whey which is a byproduct of cheese. It is an excellent source of protein and has been marketed as a dietary supplement with various scientific and medical claims attributed to its success in the athletic community. It is not a good dietary option for those who have milk…

Kess Wieser Mr. Quillin Honors Biology, Block 5 11/01/17 1. The equations are the opposite of each other. Photosynthesis uses sunlight to convert foods from carbon dioxide and water light energy into a six-carbon simple sugar, and also produces oxygen. While cellular respiration uses the oxygen and sugars to release chemical energy for the cells to use, and also produces water and carbon dioxide. 2. The rate at which photosynthesis occurs needs to be higher because photosynthesis creates…

Introduction In mostly all living things, many biological processes are too inefficient to occur on their own. With the help of enzymes, or protein catalysts, the efficiency of these chemical reactions becomes much greater having less of an effect on the cells they occur in. Enzymes help to increase the overall rate of these reactions by lowering the energy needed to activate this process during the transitional phase. They can do this without being consumed or permanently altered by the…

Steroids Could affect the coming generation.My opinion steroid in sports is people should win with their own strength instead of external energy. because a competition is measured by our own strength, not by other external elements. Most of the time steroid is used for winning a competition in different fields like Athletics, Wrestling and e.t.c. for a distance Tyson Gay was one of the biggest stars in sprinting. But BBC reported that he tested positive for a banned substance(steroids) in 2013…

Enzymes are biological molecules macromolecules that catalyze chemical reactions. Enzymes are usually proteins; however, it has been discovered that some enzymes are RNA molecules. The molecules at the beginning of the process to which enzymes act upon are called substrates, which are converted to the products by the actions of the enzyme. Almost all metabolic processes require enzymes to catalyze reactions to a rate that is fast enough to sustain life. Enzymes increase the rate of the reaction…
