3.1.3 Enzymology Intro (MEasurement of Enzyme activity and Other factors that influence enzymatic reactions) Flashcards
IU and Katal is used for Expression of Enzyme Activity
T or F
T
Which among is Traditional or Conventional unit?
a. IU
b. Katal
a
Which among is SI unit?
a. IU
b. Katal
b
Amount of enzyme that catalyzed the reaction or umoL of substance per min
umoL / min
a. IU
b. Katal
a
Amount of enzyme that catalyzed the reaction of mol or substrate per sec
mol/sec
a. IU
b. Katal
b
Conversion:
1 IU = 0.0167 ukat
1 kat = 6x10^7 IU
T or F
T
Convert
32 IU = ______ ukat
then convert it into _______ mkat
0.5344
0.0005344
Solution:
32 x 0.0167
= 0.5344
0.5344 / 1000
= 0.0005344
Convert
3 kat = ______IU
1.8 x 10^8
Solution
3 x (6x10^7)
= 1.8 x 10^8
