Penicillin is hydrolyzed and thereby rendered inactive by penicillinase, an enzyme present in some resistant bacteria. The mass of this enzyme in Staphylococcus aureus is 29.6 kDa. The amount of penicillin hydrolyzed in 1 minute in a 10 mL solution containing 10.9 g of purified penicillinase was measured as a function of the concentration of penicillin. Assume that the concentration of penicillin does not change appreciably during the assay. Note that kiloDalton is the unit for MW for biological molecules. A Dalton is another name for atomic mass unit. For example, a protein with a mass of 15 kDa means that the MW is 15,000 g/mol.Penicillin (M) Amount hydrolyzed (nanomoles)1 0.113 0.255 0.3410 0.4530 0.5850 0.611. Plot Vo versus [S] for these data. Does penicillinase appear to obey Michaelis-Menten kinetics? If…

One design option is to add materials that react with potential poisons before they reach the catalyst. Among the commonly encountered catalyst poisons are silicon and phosphorus, which typically form phosphate or silicate ions in the oxidizing environment of an engine. Group 2 elements are added to the catalyst to react with these contaminants before they reach the working portion of the catalytic converter. If estimates show that a catalytic converter will be exposed to 625 g of silicon during its lifetime, what mass of beryllium would need to be included in the design?arrow_forward
