what are the sevendietary carbohydrates include
starch(amylose and amylopectin), glycogen, isomaltose, maltose, lactose, sucrose and cellulose
why is cellulose not digested
because it contains B-1,4 glycosidic bonds),
what are the bonds of the other dietary carbs that are digested
alpha1,4 and alpha1,6 glycosidic bonds
where does carbohydrate digestion begin?
what enzyme
the mouth alpha-amylase(ptyalin)
where is alhpa amylase active and what does it break down
near neutral pH, and breaks long oligosaccharides into shorter chains and disaccharides
what digests carbs in the stomach
digestion stops in the stomach b/c the low pH inactivates the alpha amylase
what aids in carb digestion and is added to chyme whenit reaches the duodenum
pancreatic alpha-amylase
what are the resulting products of pancreatic a-amylase
disaccharides
maltose
sucrose and
lactose
can disaccharide be absorbed?
no
where do the the enzymes come from that catabolize disaccharides?
on the luminal membranes of enterocytes
name the enzymes that break down the disaccharides on enterocytes
glucoamylase (maltase)
lactase
sucrase
what are the percentage of monosacs that are transported into the blood
80% glucose, 10% frctose and 10% galactose
how does glucose and galactose cross the enterocyte cell membrane
via sodium-dependent transporters
the hexoses are transported across the abluminal membrane of the enterocyte and into the?
hepaatic portal circulation
also Na+ dependent
stoped at protein digestion and absorption
k
how much protein do we digest a day
70-100gm
2x the amount needed to replace amino acids
where are the proteases secreted by which accomplish the digestion of protein
stomach, pancreas, and small intestines
what gartic secretion aids in catab of protein
pepsinogen
what does pepsin primarily produce
short chian polypeptides and some aminocids
what does the pancreas secrete that aids in catab of protein
inactive proteolytic precursors (trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen, procarboxypeptides, proelastase
the zymogens of the pancreas are converted to there active form by?
the secretion of enterocytes, a proteolytic enzyme called enterokinase (or enteropeptidase
what does the enterokinase convert?
trypsinogen to trypsin and the trypsin does the rest of the activation
the actions of what four enzymes take the shorter length poplypeptides and oligopeptides (short chains
trypsin, chymotrypsin, carboxypeptidease and elastase
enterocytes also express a proteolytic enzyme of their own called?
aminopeptidase
what is the fun't of aminopeptidase
clips off single a.a. form the N-terminal of oligopeptides and eventually yields single a.a. and di and tripeptides
the a.a. di and tri peptides are transported into? by?
enterocytes by a fmaily of at least sodium-dependent a.a. transporters
what happens to the di or tripeptides once inside the enterocytes
are broken down into single a.a. by intracellualr peptidases
what? are transported across the abluminal membrane into what?
only a.a
hepatic portal circulation
