fermentation

organic compounds-----fermentation products
organic compounds - glucose 6-C, electron and H+ flow is interal via redox rxns fermentation (ethanol, lactate) products contain much of orig E of glucose ---C in glucose in products too ---electrons/H+s not gone, still in products |
|
aerobic respiration
|
organic compounds---CO2
org compounds (glucose) ---elec/H+ flow is external via redox rxns to O via ETS product is CO2 and E in glucose stored in reduced molecules (NADH and FADH2) |
|
anaerobic respiration
|
organic compounds---CO2
org compounds- (glucose, cellulose) --electron/H+ flow is external via redox rxns NO2-->NO3-->NH4 SO-->H2S CO-->CH4 product is CO2 and the E is reduced mol's NH4, H2S, CH4 swamp, flames bacteria live w/o much O look @ q's |

axioms of enzymology
|
1. enzymes are proteins
2. enzymes are macrmols 3. enzymes made from a.acids joined by peptide bonds 4. amino acids are of the l-config 5. props -->ed by sequence of a.acids 6. orderly structures (crystallized, or still retain activity) 7. catalytic action carried out at active site 8. enzymes form an enzyme substrate complex w/ their substrates 9. rxn rate of enzyme catalyzed rxn depends on [substrate] 10. rates of conversion of the enzyme substrate complex [ES] to product is very FAST (turnover number high) |
|
axioms of enzymology: 1. enzymes are proteins
|
enzymes are proteins, (a few RNA mol's that act similar to enzymes have been found)
|
|
axioms of enzymology: the active site
|
where enzyme acts w/ substrate
a geometrically discrete region of the enzyme ex: hemoglobin w/ oxygen catalytic action carried out within an active site |
|
axioms of enzymology: turnover number
|
how much substrate -->ed to product per enzyme per active site per unit of time
rates of conversion of the enzyme substrate complex [ES] to product is very FAST (turnover number high) |
|
___ and ___ affect active site
|
pH & temp
at higher temps, rate decreases quickly pH: pepsin works well low pH temp: trypsin high pH |
|
substrate level phosphorylation
|
ATP made on spot @ active site
substrate gives Pi to ATP from ADP enough E released to ADP --> ATP |
|
an ___ exists between substrate --> product
|
energy barrier
|
|
energy barrier is a ___ that ___ must overcome in order to be raised to a higher E level
|
energy barrier is a ENERGETIC HILL that the SUBSTRATE must overcome in order to be raised to a higher E level
|
|
activation E
|
'fleeting molecular moment'
enzymes decrease E of activation to start the rxn |
|
enzymes
|
--proteins, regulate metabolism
--specific --organic --large macromol's w/ small active sites don't change equilib of rxn speed up rxns by moving substrates, adding charges to substrates, or by inducing strain on substrate |
|
transition state
|
top of 'energetic hill' E barrier
reactant (A) raised to higher unstable E level and will --> forward P or decay bk to A diff b/t ground state and transition state = free E of activatoin |
|
rxn rates caused by
|
increasing temp, increasing # mol's
|
|
activation E can be lowered by
|
adding a catalyst
catalysts lowering activation energies |
|
in living systems, the ___ is an enzyme
|
in living systems, the catalyst is an enzyme
|
|
michaeli menten kinetics equation
|
E+S <--> ES ---> E +P
E enzyme S substrate ES enzyme substrate complex P products |
|
M&M kinetics factors of the equation
|
depends on
phy factors: pH, temp, pressure chem factors: [S] and [E] which --> [ES] --> [P] and [E] |
|
product is a ___
|
product is a rate
|
|
use ___ to compare enzymes
|
use MAX VELOCITY to compare enzymes
MAX amt of substrates per unit of volume since [E] not limiting the rxn, as amt of [S] increases, so does velocity of the rxn |
|
rate of enzymatic rxn if amt of [E] NOT limiting and substrate is increased
|
[S] v. V
levels off |
|
influence of phy factors pH and temp on enzymes
|
as [S] increases, so does volume
enzyme starts converting --> no limit --> keeps going up but not realistic b/c no space! not unlimtied supply of enzymes there is a fixed amt |
|
rate of enzymatic rxn if the amt of enzyme is limiting and substrate is increased
|
eventually will stop increasing -->
maximum velocity: max amt of substrate created |
|
max velocity
|
use max velocity to compare enzymes
max amt of substrate created enzyme limiting and substrate increased --> increased velocity |
|
vmax
---- 2 |
compare enzymatic rxns
since may [S] produce Vmax, proposed this 1 [substrate[ --> 1/2VMax Km - [S] that -->es 1/2 max vel |
|
Km
|
compares how single enzyme may react to 2 diff substrates
[S] that --> Vmax/2 S1 and S2 diff substrates, produce same max veloc Vmax....takes much more of S2 to reach Vmax than S1 S1 gets faster, takes less to get to Vmax no diff in how enzyme rxs Km1 lower than Km2 --> enz higher affinity for sub1 than sub2 E+S1 --> >er ES complex than E+S2 |
|
Km=[E][S]
---------- [ES] |
1. if [ES] is large then Km is small
small Km=good affinity of enzyme close to 0--> enz/sub high affinity 2. if [ES] small then Km large large Km=less affinity of enz for substrate |
|
almost impossible to measure [ES] so --> formula
|
v=Vmax [S]
-------- Km + [S] michaelis Menten Equation way of relating velocity of rxn to [substrate] |
|
michaelis menten kinetics and equation are true if following conditions met
|
1. enzymatic rxns go thru an ES complex
2. rate of conversion of [ES]--> [P] depends on rate of ES formed 3. [S] is greater --> no need to correct for S in ES complex 4. velocity proportional to [ES] complex 5. vmax is proportional to the amt of enzyme participating in the rxn (a) if [S] < Km, v depends on [S] (b) if [S] sig >er than Km, velocity is Vmax (c) when [S]=Km, velcotiy is Vmax/2 (equilib) (d) if [S] increased, other conditions constantm, velocity increase to Vmax and no more (e) at Vmax, an increase in [S] will have no influence on velocity |
