Question
Part 1: Assess the following partial results section below by editing it for brevity by omitting
any unnecessary parts (1 point), explain why you decided to remove certain sections (1
point):
To evaluate inhibitory effects of the selected molecules, 10mM stock solutions of each molecule
were prepared in DMSO. A reaction mixture (200μl) was prepared with the same formula optimized for
the enzyme activity assay (0.1 M Tris-HCl ph 8, 0.1 M KCI, 25 mM NaCl, 0.25 mM ATP, and two units of
inorganic yeast pyrophosphatase) with 10 µM of the sample molecule. The reaction mixture was
incubated for 20 minutes at ambient temperature. Enzymatic reaction was triggered by addition of the
substrate B (0.2 mM) and the absorbance of the product was monitored at 290 nm for 10 minutes.
Six out of 15 sample molecules showed appreciable inhibition at 10 μM (Figure 5). Three of the
molecules, A3, A6, and A7 exhibited more than 50% inhibition of the enzyme activity and were further
diluted to find the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC). Molecules A3 and A6 exhibited 30% and 45%
inhibition of the enzyme activity respectively, even at 1 μM. DMSO was found not to interfere with the
enzyme.
