True or False
All bio catlysts are proteins and these are known as enzyme.
False, in 2000 we know some RNA can act as catalysts - Ribozymes (T.Czech)
How do catalysts increase rate of reaction?
molecules go through the transition state (rotational, vibration).

No
T or F
enzyme can make reaction reversible irreversible vic versa?
True

How do enzyme work?
tend to be specific. If it hydrolyze one thing it probably won't hydrolize another compound
what is substrate binding site?
active site

Enzyme cannot be used over and over again?
False
T or F
binding substrate and the release product has to be rapid?
True
T or F
Binding substrate has to be tightly bound?
False
Lock and Key model?
base on the idea that you have a lock
Induced fig model
this is moreflexible.
What is an important feature of enzyme?
Very efficient as a catalysts.
Prosthetic Groups
organic or inorganic molecules that are attach to enzyme that helps it work
ex. hemoglob. hem is prostehic
Vitamins are? And what is its function?
Co enzymes. modified vitamins inserted into protein into prostehtic groups
T or F
Trace metals are covalently bound?`
False they are not. metal ions
What other group fall in prosthetic group class?
Trace Metals. Presence as ions. Iron in heme also in non-heme.
How is Biotin attached to a protein?
Through a carboxy group.
What does Biotin do?
Involve with enzyme that take Cl2 and put it somewhere. bound at the active site of the enzyme.
What makes metal ions unique?
Very unusual feature.
What are two things that can affect enzyme activity?
Temperature and pH
Competitive inhibitors
compete with substrate (where binds at the active site of the enzyme) No or little product formation. But more substrate can overcome this. One way is to increase substrate concentration
Non-competitive inhibitors
do not bind at the active site. not affected by increase substrate concentration. Distorts enzyme and thereby decreasing likelihood of substrate binding.
What cooperativity in enzyme activity?
multiple substrate binding sites
Wehre is cooperativity generally located?
Different subunit of a protein
Where do Allosteric enzymes bind?
bind at sites other than active sites
Allosteric inhibition
binding of an allosteric inhibitor stabilizes to low affinity form
Allosteric activation
binding of this allosteric activator will stabilize enzyme in high affinity form. lots of product.
T or F
Allosteric is a substrate
False
What is allosteric enzyme consist of?
one or more catalystic subunits (C) and one or more regulartory subunits (R). each with allosteric and active site respectively.
What is Post-translational modification?
It occurs during the process of synth of proteins.
What is translation?
mRNA is read and the protein is made by putting amnio acid next to each other.
Glycosylation
addition of sugar groups in Rough ER. inolve in targeting
Proteolysis
Proteolytic cleavage is 2nd method. cleaving the polypeptide allows the fragments to fold into different shapes.
Phosphlorylation
additon of phosphate alters shape of protein.
protein kinase
adds phosphate
protein phosphate
remove phosphate
What is the general idea of adding phosphate group to inactive protein
Go from totally inactive. put a phosphate it becomes totally active. Generally all or none. 0-100% activity
BIG TAKE HOME LESSSON
what makes us different than a chimp?
Two basic reasons:
1. every cell has the same dna, but not all dna are expressed.
2.assume cells have same protein not all are active
Hydrolyzes of ATP releases how much energy?
-7.3 kcal/mol
ATP lsoing terminal phophate leaving ADP and pi. what is pi
inorganic phosphate
High energy phosphate bond is a misleading term
true
When you hydrolyze ADP what do you get?
forms AMP and pi. free energy is -7.3 kcal/mol b/c it is a phosodiester bond.
How about hydrolyzing AMP?
adenonsine and pi. -3.5 kcal/mol b/c phosoester bond.
NAD+ and NADH
Know this structure. fig 101. Know how it works.

2 electrons 1 proton.
What is different about NADP+
has phosphate group
Oxidative phosphorylation
CO2 as prodcut, requires O2. respiration
fermentation
incomplete oxidation of glucose. anaerobic process no O2 required
