    tubes which contained the same amount of enzyme to substrate were tested for reaction rate with pHs ranging from 4 to 9 as the only difference‚ in order to determine what the optimum pH was. According to previous experiments‚ protenation of the nucleophile limits catalysis at low pH‚ and deprotenation of the hydrogen donor limits it at high pH (Nielsen‚ Vriend & Borchert‚ 2001). In addition‚ a review paper states alpha-amylase

    expensive as Oxone and leaves behind the epoxide plus m-chlorobenzoic acid while Oxone creates non-toxic byproducts and recycles acetone in the epoxidation reaction. Introduction The epoxidation of an alkene creates an epoxide that is reactive to nucleophiles. This is important in organic chemistry as well as biological sciences. For example epoxide hydrolase aids in purification during drug metabolism. The mechanisms for Oxone and mCPBA epoxidation can be found in figures 1 and 2 below. Figure

    crucial secondary side reactions‚ such as those in equations (iii)‚ (iv) and (vi)‚ and this in turn results in the main product formed in (i) being only available in small amounts because of the previously mentioned unstable equilibrium‚ while nucleophile OH- in equation (iii) is much higher1. When the OH- reacts with alkyl halide (iii) or acyl halide (iv)‚ the conjugate base will tend to react with the unreacted carbonyl compound by means of an aldol condensation reaction as shown in equation

    Thiamine was the catalyst in this reaction. The thiazolium ion attacks the benzaldehyde. Thiazolium is made in situ by adding base‚ which was NaOH in this reaction. The thiazolium ion attacks the carbonyl of the benzaldehyde‚ this served as a nucleophile. This created a negative charge on the benzaldehyde‚ which attracted another molecule of benzaldehyde. The thiamine leaves the compound and a double oxygen bond is made‚ leaving this new compound‚ benzoin‚ neutral. The second step was an

    ATP synthase (EC 3.6.3.14) is an important enzyme that provides energy for the cell to use through the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the most commonly used "energy currency" of cells from most organisms. It is formed from adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate (Pi)‚ and needs energy. The overall reaction sequence is: ADP + Pi → ATP‚ where ADP and Pi are joined together by ATPsynthase Energy is often released in the form of protium or H+‚ moving down an electrochemical

    carbon will have a partial positive charge compared to the two functional groups mentioned. In nucleophilic substitution reaction‚ the electrons of the partially negative hydroxyl group of the alcohol (nucleophile) attacks the partially positive carbon on the acid (electrophile). Eventually‚ the nucleophile donates its electrons to
