AMYLASE breaks down polysaccarides to disaccharides
What is the FUNCTION of …TRYPSIN?
TRYPSIN breaks down polypeptides into peptides
What is the FUNCTION of …INTRINSIC FACTOR?
INTRINSIC FACTOR allows VIT B12 to be absorbed in the small intestine
What is the FUNCTION of …HCl? (2)
HCl CONVERTS pepsinogen (in the stomach) into pepsin *AND* breaks down connective tissue in foods
What is the FUNCTION of …PEPSIN?
PEPSIN breaks down proteins into polypeptides
What is the FUNCTION of …CARBOXY-PEPTIDASE?
CARBOXY-PEPTIDASE breaks down PEPTIDES into amino acids
What is the FUNCTION of …AMINO-PEPTIDASE?
AMINO-PEPTIDASE breaks down PEPTIDES into amino acids
What is the FUNCTION of …GASTRIN? (2 …)
GASTRIN stimulates gastric secretion and motility, and **Intestinal motility"
What is the FUNCTION of …LIPASE?
LIPASE breaks down triglycerides into fatty acids, monoglycerides
What is the FUNCTION of …LEPTIN? (2…)
LEPTIN ==> CONTROLS food intake and metabolic rate
What is the FUNCTION of … SECRETIN?
SECRETIN stimulates secretion of bicarbonate buffers from pancreas, liver
What is the FUNCTION of …ELASTASE?
ELASTASE breaks down polypeptides into peptides
What is the FUNCTION of …CHYMOTRYPSIN?
CHYMOTRYPSIN breaks down polypeptides into peptides
What is the FUNCTION of …GIP?
GIP stimulates **INSULIN** secretion
What is the FUNCTION of … CHOLECYSTOKININ? (2)
CHOLECYSTOKININ INHIBITS gastric activities, causes release of bile and pancreatic juice
What is the FUNCTION of …ENTERO-KINASE? (2…)
ENTERO-KINASE CONVERTS the TRYPSINOGEN in the S.I. (entero) into TRYPSIN, & TRYPSIN activates other pancr proteases
What is the FUNCTION of …RIBONUCLEASE?
RIBONUCLEASE breaks down RNA into nucleotides
Name 3 digestive substances that are neither enzymes nor hormones.
Bile (fat emulsifier), HCl (acid), Intrinsic Factor (protein)
Name the digestive enzymes that DO NOT end in "-ase".
Pepsin, Trypsin, Chymotrypsin - "sin" endings.
How many digestive enzymes are considered? How many are synthzd in the stomach? small intestine? pancreas? liver? salivary glands? gall bladder? in fat cells?
11 digestive enzymes; stomach ; small intestine 2; pancreas 8; liver 0, as does the salivary glands, gall bladder and fat cells.
Name the enzyme synthesized in the stomach.
PEPSIN is synthesized in the stomach.
Name two NON-enzymes synthesized in the stomach.
HCl (acid) and Intrinsic Factor (protein)
What digestive substance is synthesized in the liver? What kind of substance is it? What is its function?
Bile (fat emulsifier) is synthesized in the liver. Bile functions to break APART the flat globs into small fat droplets in order to be absorbed by the cells; to emulsify = to solubilize
Describe protein break down:
Proteins -> PEPSIN -> Polypeptides -> TRYPSIN, CHYMOTRYPSIN, ELASTASE ->Peptides -> CARBOXYPEPTIDASE, AMINOPEPTIDASE -> Amino Acids
Name two digestive enzymes that are synthesized in the small intestine, and describe their function.
(1) Aminopeptidase; enzyme synth in S.I.; breaks down peptides into amino acids.
(2) EnTerokinase; enzyme synth in S.I.; CONVERTS Trypsinogen into Trypsin
Name 3 substances that act on polypeptides; state site of synthesis.
Trypsin, Chymotrypsin and Elastase breakdown polypeptides into peptides. All are synthesized in the pancreas.
What substance acts directly on proteins? Where and why?
Pepsinogen breaks down proteins into polypeptides; is activated by HCl in stomach.
What substance controls food intake?
Leptin - HORMONE - synth in adipocytes. Also controls metabolic rate.
Adipocytes synthesize _________ which functions to ___________ & _________ .
Leptin (hormone); control food intake and control metabolic rate.
