Serine 14 of glycogen phosphorylase was replaced by glutamate in an experiment. The Vmax of the mutant enzyme was compared to wi
grigory [225]

Answer:

b) Glutamate's negatively charged R group mimics a phosphorylated serine residue. The Vmax is reduced because the carboxyl group is smaller and less charged than a phosphate group.

Explanation:

Vmax is the maximum velocity of a reaction. It is achieved when all the binding sites of an enzyme are occupied. Glycogen phosphorylase enzyme has a serine residue on position 14. Serine is important for its activity because serine's phosphorylation activates it. Hence, phosphorylated Glycogen phosphorylase is active.

Serine has a hydroxyl group which acts as a nucleophile leading to its phosphorylation and addition of negative charge. Glutamate is already a negatively charged amino acid so it repels the phosphoryl group. However because of its negative charge it acts like phosphorylated serine, making the enzyme functionally active. But due to lesser negative charge and smaller size as compared to phosphoryl group, it is not able to fully restore the wild type Vmax.
