M :   IB Biology Name __________________________________ Enzyme Lab Period _____ Date _____________________ Background: Enzymes are proteins produced by living cells; they act as catalysts in biochemical reactions. A catalyst affects the rate of a chemical reaction. One benefit of enzyme catalysis is that the cell can carry out complex chemical activities at a relatively low temperature. In biochemical reactions the enzyme, E, combines with its specific substrate, S, to form a complex, ES. One result of this temporary union is a reduction in the energy required to activate the reaction of the substrate molecule so that P, the products of the reaction, is formed. In summary: E+S > ES > E + P Note that the enzyme is not changed in the reaction and can be recycled to react with additional substrate molecules. Enzymes are extremely efficient and may be used over and over again. One enzyme may catalyze thousands of reactions every second. Both the temperature and the pH at which enzymes function are extremely important. Most organisms have a preferred temperature range in which they survive, and their enzymes most likely function best within that temperature range. If the environment of the enzyme is too acidic or too basic, the enzyme may irreversibly denature, or unravel, until it no longer has the shape necessary for proper functioning. A representative enzyme, catalase, contains 4 polypeptide chains, each composed of more than 500 amino acids. This enzyme occurs universally in aerobic organisms. One function of catalase within cells is to prevent the accumulation of toxic levels of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) formed as a by-product of metabolic processes. The primary reaction catalyzed by catalase is the decomposition of H2O2 to form water and oxygen. 2H2O2 ------> 2H2O + O2 (gas) This reaction occurs spontaneously, but not at a very rapid rate. Catalase speeds up the reaction considerably. Catalase will be made available from beef liver or yeast (red potatoes are another source, but will not be offered). In this experiment, a rate of reaction will be measured three possible ways: determining the time it takes for gas bubbles to reach a given distance in a test tube, measuring water displacement over a given amount of time, or by using a pressure sensor to determine the change in pressure over time to monitor the progress of the reaction. Much can be determined about enzymes by studying the kinetics (changes in rate) of enzymecatalyzed reactions. The rate of a chemical reaction may be studied in a number of ways, including the following: 1. Measuring the rate of disappearance of a substrate, in this experiment ___________________. 2. Measuring the rate of appearance of product, in this experiment _______________________. 3. Measuring the heat released (or used) during the reaction. Computer Protocol Materials: Lab Quest cheesecloth stop watch distilled water Gas Pressure Assembly ice cup to keep enzyme cold (reduces denaturing) Logger Pro graduated cylinders for measuring substrate test tubes for the experimental reactions berol pipette for measuring enzyme test tubes for controls thermometer rack for test tubes gas collection tube with tub blender gas collection stopper with tubing electronic balance Procedure: For beef liver catalase, place the beef liver and 100 mL of cold distilled water into a blender. Homogenize for 30 seconds. Filter the extract through cheesecloth. Once prepared, keep it on ice until used! For yeast catalase, combine 5.63 g of yeast, 30 mL of warm water, and 2.5 g of sugar in a flask. Place in water bath for 10 minutes. Once prepared, but sure to stir often and use liquid, not froth as your enzyme. Add 6 mL of hydrogen peroxide to a test tube. Add 1 mL of enzyme suspension to the test tube, mix quickly. Insert the stopper and click collect data. Gas Bubble Height Protocol: Design your own protocol to determine the time it takes for gas bubbles to reach a given distance in a test tube. Water Displacement Protocol: Design your own protocol to determine the amount of water displaced by oxygen in a given amount of time. Some thoughts: What is the value in running a trial without any enzyme? Sometimes the reaction itself alters the environment of the reaction. Should this be controlled? If so, how? If not, should it be monitored? Reported? You will have to divide the labor and work in exact tandem (rhythm) to maintain control and finish data collection in a reasonable amount of time! How will your group accomplish this? Assignment: Try the three protocols to measure the enzyme activity of catalase on hydrogen peroxide. Give me your choice of manipulated variable, responding variable protocol, and source of enzyme. Discuss your procedure with your group. Be sure to take good notes as your team plans. Make a list of materials that you will need. Be sure to try a trial using your procedure. Write background information, a focused question, and create a data table of your own design. Take a pre-lab quiz. Perform the experiment designed by your team. Collect as much data as possible. Revise the procedure if your team has made changes. Discuss your results with your team. After this discussion, you may no longer discuss the work with your team members. Write a formal report of your experiment. We will color mark your first draft.
