protein folds?
• How can you identify a transmembrane
protein?
pH, pKa, HH equation
• What is the charge on an amino acid in
a solution that is 0.1 unit below its pI?
• How do you make a buffer of a
particular pH and concentration?
50mM glycine buffer, pH 8.8
• What is its ionic strength?
Solubility

to precipitate?
• Describe three ways to cause an
insoluble protein to dissolve?
Separations

the size of a protein?
• What techniques separate according to
charge on a protein?
• What techniques separate based on a
combination of both charge and size?

What is an activity unit?
How is it different from a rate?
What is total activity?
What is specific activity?
What is purification fold?
What is recovery?
Reaction Order
•
•
•
•
Define the order of the reaction
Define the order in a component
What does pseudo zero order mean?
How could a reaction be pseudo zero order
in a component?
• What does the order of reaction imply about
a mechanism?
Determine the order of the
reaction
• Initial rates
– Change one [reactant]
– Measure initial rate
– See how the rate changes
• Integrated Rate Equation
– Follow the reaction until significant changes in
concentrations occur
– See which integrated rate equation describe
the data
