catalysis by approximation
nucleoside monophosphate kinases (NMP kinases) catalyze transfer of phosphoryl group from NTP to NMP without catalyzing hydrolysis of NTP.
conformation of enzyme changes upon binding substrates, facilitating reaction and preventing water from hydrolyzing NTP.
covalent catalysis
nucleophilic attack results in temporary covalent attachment between enzyme and substrate
acid/base catalysis
uses molecule (not water) that can accept or donate a proton
-histidine is common because side chain has pKa ~7 that can function as acid/base at physiological pH
in aspartate ammonia lyase, deprotonated serine sidechain performs nucleophilic attack on carbonyl carbon of substrate
covalent catalysis
substrates of chymotrypsin
cleaves peptide bonds after aromatic or bulky hydrophobic side chains
substrates of trypin
cleaves peptide bonds after basic amino acid residues
substrates of elastase
cleaves peptide bonds after small uncharged side chains
specificity pocket of trpysin
shorter, negative asp residue
specificity pocket of chymotrypsin
longer, hydrophobic
catalytic triad
active site: aspartic acid, histidine, serine
-serine proteases
tetrahedral intermediate
proteases
aspartic protease active site
2 asp residues
mechanism of serine protease
covalent intermediate
mechanism of aspartic protease
nu attack by water
a proton is transferred between enzyme and substrate
acid-base catalysis
may use amino acids such as asp or lys for protonation or proton abstraction
acid-base catalysis
covalent bond forms between enzyme and substrate
covalent catalysis
uses nucleophilic functional group
covalent catalysis
two-part catalytic process
covalent catalysis
-chymoptrypsin
catalysts may participate in redox reactions
metal ion catalysis
Zn2+ cofactor may properly orient substrate in active site through ionic interactions

control by covalent modification
phosphorylation of glycogen phosphorylase
control by covalent modification
allosteric enzymes
-interconvert between more/less active form (concerted model)

-multiple subunit proteins
michaelis-menten kinetics
-hyperbolic curve
-more active enzyme
isozymes
-present in various developmental stages
-different amino acid sequences
-lactate dehydrogenase
kinases
-catalyze phosphorylation reactions
-may use ATP as phosphoryl group donor
phosphatases
-remove phosphoryl groups from proteins: dephosphorylation
-turn off signaling pathways triggered by kinases
-NOT the reverse of phosphorylation
master activator in digestion
enteropeptidase
pancreatic zymogens directly activated by trypsin
-procarbozypeptidase
-chymotrypsinogen
-proelastase
-prolipase
