A recently discovered enzyme is found to have maximum activity in a pH range of 6-8. It is thought that histidine and cysteine r

esidues are a part of the active site. Kinetic experiments of pH dependence in the wild type (WT) enzyme, as well as kinetic experiments at pH 7.0 in site-specific mutants of residues thought to be in the active site, showed the results below.
pH KM(mM) Kcat(s^-1)
5 0.14 15
7 0.12 332
9 20.1 281

Answer:

Cysteine

Explanation:

<u>Determine the Amino acid that is primarily involved in Binding </u>

The Amino acid that is primarily involved in Binding is Cysteine. while the other Amino acid ( i.e.  Histidine ) will be involved in Catalysis.

since the enzyme is functional at pH 6 to 8. and Cysteine has a pH of 5, it should be deprotonated and used primarily for Binding .

Which vascular component of the client’s nephron delivers arterial blood from the glomerulus into the peritubular capillaries or
seropon [69]

The efferent (efferent means outgoing) arterioles are the blood vessels, which carry the blood away from the glomerulus. From the anastomotic capillaries into the cortex, which are also known as peritubular plexus the efferent arterioles bring the blood to the capillaries present in the medulla or vasa recta.  

Hence, the correct answer is efferent arterioles.
