[4 marks] Table 2 Biological molecule Enzyme Name of bond hydrolysed Product of digestion Starch Maltose Dipeptide Dipeptidase A student investigated starch digestion by mixing starch with a solution of the enzyme used to digest starch. The student did a biochemical test for protein when starch digestion was completed. 0 2 . 2 Describe a biochemical test to show the presence of protein.

[2 marks] 0 2 . 4 An enzyme’s turnover number (kcat) is the number of substrate molecules converted into product molecules by one enzyme molecule in 1 second. It is determined using this equation. kcat = Maximum rate of enzyme-controlled reaction / μmol dm–3 s–1 Enzyme concentration / μmol dm–3 A scientist investigated the action of a protease enzyme. The scientist prepared a reaction mixture with a protease concentration of 0.0118 µmol dm–3 . The kcat for the protease is 110 substrate molecules per second. Use this information and the formula to calculate the maximum rate of the protease-controlled reaction. Give your answer to 3 significant figures. Show your working.

The scientist: • mixed a diluted sample of the virus with a bacterial culture in liquid agar • poured the liquid agar into a Petri dish and let the agar set • incubated the virus-bacterial culture at 30 °C for 24 hours. Figure 3 shows the appearance of the Petri dish after 24 hours.
