6 elements making up protein
|
C,H,N,,P,S,
|
|
|
monomer of protein
|
amino acid
|
|
|
examples of protein
|
hemoglobin-carry o2
albumin-food in eggs (white) insulin-control blood sugar keratin-nails, hair amylase-enzyme that breaks down starch(in salavia) |
|
|
function of enzymes
|
lock&key-the substrate/enzyme complex "fit" generally on a 1:1 basis, speeds up the process of RX
|
|
|
Enzymes in digestion
|
in stomach: proteases=breaks down glactose
lipases=break down fats ATP synthase=make (put together) ATP |
|
|
factors effecting enzymes
|
protein makeup(amino acid determined by DNA0,
size and shape, concentration of E vs. S, temperature(rising denotes proteins), poisons PH |
|
|
What do amylase(starch) and maltase(maltose) and galactase(glactose) break down-
|
amylase-starch
galactase-galactose maltase-maltose |
|
|
# of amino acids
|
20
|
|
|
carbohydrates
|
bread, rice, potato, candy, fruit, pasta
|
|
|
monomer
|
glucose, dextrose, galactose,fructose
|
|
|
polypeptide vs polysaccharide
|
polypeptide-protein,long chains of amino acid
polysaccharide-carbs, long chains of sugars or monosacraides |
|
|
function of coenzymes
|
NOT, protein, enter the rx, not helper and recyclable
DOaccepts from electrons, store energy, transfer parts of molecules from one rx to next |
|
|
why we die from high temperatures
|
denatures enzymes,
metabolism slows or stops can't get energy from food to get ATP LACK OF ENERGY |
|
|
lock and key with enzymes
|
the substrate/enzyme complex "fit" generally on a 1:1 basis, reusable, regulates the rx, some enzymes are for synthesis and others for decomposition
|
