dc.description.abstract | A theoretical and experimental analysis of facilitated transport of CO2 across membranes containing NaHCO3 and the enzyme carbonic anhydrase (carbonate hydro-lyase EC 4.2.1.1) is presented. The necessary diffusion reaction equations are derived and the system constraints defined. For the CO2---HCO3- system, mathematical simplifications based on the magnitude of various reaction and concentration terms are made to make the equations tractable to solution. The resultant equations are solved by a number of analytical and numerical techniques, each having a limited, though useful, range of validity.The experimental arrangement consists of a liquid membrane (created by soaking a porous filter paper in the test solution), a diffusion chamber, and gas metering and analysis equipment. Conditions were selected to cover the range from diffusion- to reaction-dominated behavior.The flux of CO2 across a membrane containing 1 M NaHCO3 was measured at various partial pressures of CO2 (2-28 in Hg) and with membrane thicknesses of 0.02, 0.06 and 0.10 cm. The extent of facilitation (defined as the ratio of reaction-related flux to the expected Fick's Law flux in the absence of reaction) ranged from near zero to nearly 5 in these experiments. The agreement between model calculations and experimental observation was found to be excellent over the entire range of near-diffusion to near-equilibrium behavior.In the presence of enzyme carbonic anhydrase (0.10 mg/ml, activity approx. 80%) and 1 M NaHCO3, the CO2 flux across a 0.02 cm membrane was 3-10-fold higher than the corresponding flux in the absence of enzyme. From experiments at various enzyme concentrations and membrane thicknesses, it appeared that the apparent CO2 reaction rate was directly proportional to the enzyme concentration. The model calculations for the enzyme-catalyzed reactions agreed with the experimental observations to within +/-10%. | en_US |
