name two types of enzyme regulation via covalent modification.
which type is reversible? |
Proteolysis - cleaves PEPTIDE bonds specifically
phosphorylation - is reversible! |
|
where does the end-product in feedback inhibition act in the rxn sequence?
|
always at the rate limiting step or step unique to pathway.
|
|
are allosteric inhibitors reversible?
what kind of enzyme kinetics to allosteric inhibitors follow? |
yes.
SIGMOIDAL. |
|
allosteric enzymes tend to stabilize what state?
pushes curve which way? |
T state -
pushes curve to the -----> right. |
|
what does K0.5 mean?
|
1/2 of the enzyme is in T state and half is in R state.
|
|
Describe the steps in the ATC-ase rxn for allosteric regulation.
What allosterically inhibits this rxn? What allosterically activates this? |
asp + carbamoyl phosphate (ATC-ASE)--->N-carbamoylasp (ATP)-->(ATP)--->CTP
CTP INHIBITS THIS ATP ACTIVATES THIS |
|
What does CTP actually do to inhibit the ATC-ase rxn?
|
binds to regulatory subunit on ATC-ase and locks it in T state -pushing the curve to the RIGHT ---->
K0.5 is INCREASED |
|
What state does ATP push ATC-ase rxn toward?
What happens to K0.5? |
ATP ACTIVATES this rxn...pushing the curve <---- LEFT toward the R state.
K0.5 is decreased |
|
Is the LDH isozyme H4 or M4 inhibited by allosterically inhibited by pyruvate?
Why? |
H4 is allosterically inhibited by buildup of pyruvate.
It allows aerobic respiration to occur as long as possible. |
|
Carboxylation, hydroxylation, N-glycosylation, O-glycosylation and phosphorylation are examples of what kind of enzyme regulation?
|
Short acting covalent R-group modifications.
