For the chloroplast, the thylakoid membrane separates the thylakoid lumen from the stroma; the protons from the photosystems are transported, like with the mitochondrial inner membrane, against the gradient from the lumen to the stroma. However, the pH(lumen) – pH (stroma) is much larger, about 3.4. Calculate delta psi (the electric potential) for the thylakoid membrane, given that ∆G of proton transport is about the same as for the mitochondrion. Then comment on its permeability to ions, compared to the mitochondrial inner membrane’s permeability to ions.

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…
