Where does lactose synthesis take place? Which enzyme, made of what?
|
only in mammary glands
ER enz: called lactase synthetase made of glalactosyltransferease + α-lactalbumin |
|
Which hormonal signal stimulates lactose synthesis?
Describe what happens: |
Prolactin following partution
lowers Km of α-lactalbumin from 1200 to 1 mM. |
|
What other role will galactotransferase take in the absebce of α-lactalbumin?
|
Function in the glycoprotein pathway
|
|
What 2 substate are needed for lactose synthesis?
|
UDP-glalactose
GLucose |

GAG:glycoaminoglycan (repeating dissach units GalNAc or GlcNAc + uronic acid (glucuronic or iduronic)) trissacharide (gal/gla/xyl) O-glycosidic bond to S residue of core protein |
|
Why are proteoglycans possess lg neg charge?
Advantage? |
1. residues are frequently sulfated
2. highly hydrated --> take large space in ECM (good as lubricant and molecule stucture |

|
ECM
joint fluid, humor of the eye, arterial walls bone and cartilage |
|
What are glycosaminoglycans (GAGs)?
|
long unbranched polysacc of repeating disacc(contain either of 2 modif. sugars (N-GalNAc or N-GlcNAc, and uronic acid (glucuronate or iduronate)
