A student purified a protein, resulting in a fraction with a volume of 240 µL. The sample has a corrected A280 of 0.234, and the blank corrected A280 was 0.069. (Both values were measured with a path length of 1.00 cm.) The student then added 6.00 µL of the sample to a reaction tube. Calculate the mass of protein in the reaction (in µg).

A purified protein fraction has a total sample volume of 360 µL. The sample has a corrected A280 of 0.484, and the blank corrected A280 was 0.052. (Both values were measured with a path length of 1.00 cm.) If 5.00 µL of the sample was used in a reaction, calculate the mass of protein in the reaction (in µg).
You perform a Bradford assay to determine the concentration of isolated α-lactalbumin. You use 50 μL of a two-fold diluted solution of α-lactalbumin in the assay. You generate a standard curve with the following equation for the line: y = 0.163x + 0.082. The absorbance of your sample was 0.674 AU. What is the concentration of α-lactalbumin, in mg/mL, in your sample? Give your answer to three significant figures.
A student performed an invertase activity assay on samples from a purification. All reactions occurred in a reaction volume of 100 µL and lasted 3.1 minutes. For each reaction, 8.50 µL enzyme was mixed with 50.0 mM sucrose in 10.0 mM acetate pH 4.8. Then 400 µL of DNS was added, the samples were heated to 90 °C for 5 minutes, and 300 µL of 50.0 mM acetate pH 4.8 was added before loading a 96 well plate in triplicate. Samples were measured at 540 nm using a path length of 0.730 cm. The fraction with the highest activity had A540 of 0.743. The standard of 14.00 mM hydrolyzed sucrose had A540 of 1.087 (the concentration given is of the 100 µL sample). The no-enzyme control had A540 of 0.139. Calculate the activity of the fraction (in nmol min-1).

A vial of Doxorubicin reads 0•5g per vial. Instructions say to reconstitute each 12mg with 2•5ml of NS. How many ml of NS will be needed to reconstitute the vial of the recommended concentration? please show working
You need to calculate the volume of the forward and reverse primers you need to add to each reaction tube using the following information: The stock concentration of each primer is 10 mM. You need a final concentration of 0.3 µM in a 25 µl reaction.
First, they ran samples of the enzyme on denaturing and non-denaturing gels; the results are shown in the figure to the right. In addition, they ran the protein through a calibrated gel filtration column, the results of which indicated that the PYC enzyme had a molecular weight of 540 kiloDaltons. In the figure, the rightmost column are where molecular weight standards of various sizes would occur if they’d been on the gels. How many subunits are in the PYC enzyme? Are the subunits the same, or are they different in some way? Are the subunits made up of distinct chains of primary structures, and, if so, how many? Are the chains the same, or are they different in some way?
You have been given a stock solution of dye that has a 10X concentration. You wish to make 750ul of a 1X dilution of this dye. Give the volume of 10X dye that you will use (in ul)
The standard curve to determine the amount of betacyanin is shown below. You extracted a red pigment from a beet disc (the mass of a disc is 2 g) using 10 ml of 20% ethanol solution. You measured absorbance of the solution above the beet disc every minute for a total time of 20 minutes. The increase in absorbance was linear during a period of time from 1 min to 10 min. The absorbance at 10 min was 0.8. Calculate the amount of betacyanin extracted from 1g of a beet tissue per minute. Explain your calculations. You can use Excel or a calculator.
After performing the manual Albumin assay, you get the absorbance value of 0.205 for a 4.5 g/dL albumin standard and 0.114 for control A. What is the calculated value of the control? (just write a number with one decimal, the units will be mg/dL)
An ion-exchange chromatographic separation is performed using a diethyl-aminoethyl- (DEAE)-sepharose column to separate proteins in a mixture. The mixture contains Protein A (pl=6.0), B (pl35.0), C (pl=7.5), D (pl =1), and E (pl=4.0). The protein mixture is prepared in a buffer solution pH =5. When the protein mixture is loaded onto the column, and the column is washed with a buffer solution pH 5, which protein(s) will be captured by DEAE-sepharose in the column? O Protein B because it is predominantly in net negative charge form. O Proteins D and E because they have predominately net negative charge in pH 5 solution O Proteins A, C, D and E because they have charges O Proteins A and C because both both predominantly have net positive charges O Proteins Band E because both predominantly have net positive charges
