kinetics mode can be programmed <strong>and</strong> how to set the wavelength at 340 nm. If there is no kinetics<br />

mode, readings at 340 nm can be taken manually every 15 seconds for 150 seconds <strong>and</strong> written<br />

down.<br />

Note: UV compatible cuvettes (trUView or quartz) that can read 1 ml samples must be used for this<br />

activity.<br />

5. Aliquot 1 ml of 1x PBS into a 2 ml microcentrifuge tube for each workstation.<br />

6. Set up student workstations according to the student workstation list below.<br />

Student Workstations<br />

Each student team requires the following items to analyze enzymatic activity of their purified, desalted<br />

GST-DHFR-His protein sample:<br />

Material Needed for Each Workstation Quantity<br />

Purified, desalted eluate protein sample 15 µl<br />

2–20 µl adjustable-volume micropipet <strong>and</strong> tips 1<br />

100–1,000 adjustable-volume micropipet <strong>and</strong> tips 1<br />

1x PBS 1 ml<br />

Marking pen 1<br />

NADPH cofactor 8 µl<br />

DHF substrate 10 µl<br />

trUView disposable cuvettes (or UV compatible cuvettes) 1–3<br />

Parafilm 1 square<br />

Common Workstation Quantity<br />

UV spectrophotometer capable of three decimal place accuracy 1–2<br />
