The enzyme glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase catalyzes the first step of the Pentose Phosphate Pathway (we will study this pathw

ay after the exam). Based strictly on the KM values of the three potential substrates listed below, which of them would best interact with this enzyme and be converted to product?
Compound KM
fructose 6-phosphate 1.5 mM
glucose 6-phosphate 0.05 mM
galactose 6-phosphate 0.02 mM

Answer and Explanation:

By michaelis mentos equation

Rate of reaction, V_0 = \frac{V_{max}[S]}{K_m + [S]}

where K_m is michaelis mentos constant

For same value of Vmax and [S] the rate of reaction will be higher for that as lowest(minimum) value of Km

Here for galactose-6-phosphate the Km value is minimum (Km = 0.02 mm)

So "Galactose-6-phosphate" will best interact with this enzyme and be converted to product

These cells produce pepsin, which breaks down proteins
zhenek [66]
The cells that produce pepsin, an enzyme that breaks down proteins during the digestive process is Chief cells.  Pepsin is the main digestive enzyme in the stomach that breaks down proteins. Pepsin is produced by the chief cells in the inactive form pepsinogen, which is then converted to pepsin by the hydrochloric acid from the parietal cells.

Compare a bituminous roof membrane to a single ply roof membrane.
Digiron [165]

<span>Single-ply membranes are a assorted and promptly increasing group of sheet materials that are functional to the roof in a single layer. As equated to built-up membranes, they need less on-site labor, and they are usually more flexible and therefore less liable to to cracking and ripping. They are attached to the roof surface by any of several means.</span>
