Biochemistry Lab Report 1 Spectrophotometry, Quantification of Protein Concentration, Chromatography, Gel Electrophoresis, Gel Electrophoresis of Proteins Abstract Over the course of three lab periods, many experiments were performed in order to set up a stable base for this class of Biochemistry lab. To do this, we made many measurements to create many standard graphs so that we have them in our arsenal for future experiments. In order to perform detailed studies on the structure and fun...

1) What is the basic structure of an amino acid? List the 4 groups and describe what they look like. + alpha carbon ©, Amino group ( NH2 or NH3, Carbonyl group( cooh) and variance or side chain(R group) 2) How do you identify the 3 different types of side chains: non-polar/hydrophobic, polar, and charged? Non Polar:::: ( Hydrophobic)- water hating -Ch3 or C and H ( side) special case: Tryptophan is a hydrophobic nonpolar even tho is has a single N Polar:::: ( Hydrophilic): OH, NH, ( cen...

Final Bio chem 1. The polymerase chain reaction is a tool used to study protein structure. True False False Feedback PCR is a tool used to amplify a specific segment of DNA. What color is the primer in the following diagram? Red Purple Blue Red Feedback Recall from the section on DNA replication that DNA polymerase needs a primer to begin DNA synthesis. This requirement means the primers will direct the DNA polymerase to only synthesize complementary strands of the target DNA. (Not...

Biochemistry – C785 Unit 2 Quiz 1. Which level of protein structure is disrupted through the hydrolysis of peptide bonds? a. Primary 2. A mutation in the beta-hemoglobin gene, which results in the replacement of the amino acid glutamate in position 6 with the amino acid valine, leads to the development of sickle cell anemia. The structures of glutamate and valine are shown below. If the beta hemoglobin gene in a patient with sickle-cell anemia were to be edited so that the valine in po...

*** Module 1***  Hemophilia pedigree- father has hemophilia, mother does not. Outcome for kids? His daughters would be carriers, this is x-linked recessive.  X-linked dominant: an affected male will have 100% of his daughters affected and 0% of his sons.  Pedigree chart: only one is autosomal dominant Autosomal= males and females are EQUALLY affected. Dominant= non-carrier parents.  Punnett square question: 4 squares w. drop down boxes, select the correct answer for each one. T...

Biochemistry Readiness Check The 2nd OA Readiness Check is designed to give you additional practice with new assessment-style questions to help prepare for success on the OA. Thus, please try to mimic exam-like conditions by taking the test in one <2 hr sitting without any study aids apart from your whiteboard/scrap paper. Note: Responses cannot be edited. You will be able to see the results and feedback after submitting the test. A score of 70% is required for OA approval. If you score...
