Bellwork: Tues. Sept 25, 2018 read the following Enzyme Amylase Reaction on Starch Introduction: Tomorrow you’ll observe the action of amylase on starch. Amylase changes starch into the dissaccaride maltose, which is water soluble. Amylase is in our saliva, and begins to act on starchy food in our mouth as we chew.. Exposure to heat, extreme pH (acid or base) & an inorganic salt or organic solvent (e.g., alcohol) denature proteins (like an egg white cooking) Enzymes, including amylase, are proteins. If denatured, an enzyme can no longer act as a catalyst for the reaction. Benedict's solution, a test reagent that reacts positively with simple reducing sugars like maltose, will not react with starch. A positive test forms a brownish-red cuprous oxide precipitate. A weaker positive test will be yellow to orange –a negative result is blue. 1. What enzyme is in your saliva?_____________________ 2. What three things will denature a protein ________________, ________________, _______________________________________ 3. Benedict’s solution turns ___________________ in the presence of the “sugar” ____________________ in this lab

Amylase is an enzyme in human saliva that catalyses the breakdown of starch into sugar – maltose – two linked glucose molecules. The chemical process of digestion begins the moment we put food into our mouth. Food that contains a lot of starch but very little sugar (potatoes and rice) taste slightly sweet as they are chewed because amylase turns some of their starch into sugar in our mouth!

PRE-LAB I’m adding 1g (approx ¼ tsp) of cornstarch to a beaker containing 100ml of cold distilled water. While stirring frequently, heat the mixture just until it begins to boil. Allow to cool.

PRE-LAB: large batch Add 10g of cornstarch to a beaker containing 1000ml of cold distilled water. While stirring frequently, heat the mixture just until it begins to boil. Allow to cool.

1. "Spit" between 1 to 2 mL of saliva into each test tube (A,B,C) vinegar 2. Into tube A, add 2 mL of vinegar. Into tubes B and C, add 2 mL of distilled water. Thump the tubes to mix. Place Test tube B in boiling water 5 min. 4. Cool test tube B distilled water 5. Add 5 mL of the starch solution to each tube(A,B, & C) and thump to mix. Allow the tubes to sit for 10 minutes, occasionally thumping the tubes to mix. 6. Add 2-3 mL of Benedict's solution to each tube and thump to mix. 7. Place the tubes in the hot water bath. The reaction takes several minutes to begin. Boil until you see a color change

Bellwork: Wed. Sept. 26, 2018 At the end of every lab make sure you leave your lab station ______________. After the lab ______________ your test tubes and leave them _______________ in the rack.

All enzymes are macromolecules called proteins http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-_r3omrnxw The function of an enzyme: speed up chemical reactions in organisms by lowering activation energy! All enzymes are macromolecules called proteins

Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Each protein has a specific, complex shape. The substrates bind to a site on the enzyme called the active site. The active site and the substrates have complementary shapes. The fit is so precise that the active site and substrates are often compared to a lock and key. http://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072943696/student_view0/chapter2/animation__a_biochemical_pathway.html Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 17

Denaturation of Proteins: When proteins lose structure by application of stress or compound - reactions with: 1. a strong acid or base 2. an inorganic salt or organic solvent (e.g., alcohol) 3. heat http://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072943696/student_view0/chapter2/animation__protein_denaturation.html
