slide 11
Pathology

Pharmocology

What does a perm do to your hair and how?

slide 12
It reorganizes the disulfide bridges.

Keratin in human hair is 14% cysteine

Disulfide bridges here create the protein structure leading to the type of hair you have.

you oxidize the hair to make new dissulfide bonds.
what is phosphorylation frequently used for?

slide 14
used to control enzyme activity

- usually on Ser, thy or tyr (hydroxyl containing groups)

catalyzed by kinases using ATP

reversible phosphotase action

can increase or decrease activity
what are the results of phosphorylating translation initiation factors

eIF2
eIF4E
4E-BP

eIF4E - Stiumulate

4E-BP stimulatory (derepression) ie. indirectly stimulates by deactivating something else
Functional aspects of post translational modificiations
1. Genetic Dieases - MSD

2. Nutrition - Se and SeCys

3. Anticoagulants - vitamin K and warfarin (coumadin)

4. Diabetes mellitus - protein glycation
Mutliple Sulfatase Deficiency (MSD)
progressive paralysis, skeletal deformities, neurological defects.

Infants develop slowly, lose abilities at 1

Combinees the enzyme deficiency and phenotypic features of several diseases
What is the molecular basis of MSD
Increased accumulation of mucopolysaccarides (heparan sulfate, dermatan sulfate) and other sulfates (cholesterol sulfate)

Defect in cysteine oxidation common to all sulfatases

Primary defect is in sulfatase-modifying factor-1 gene (SMF-1)

sulfatases cannot be converted to 2-amino-3oxopropionic acid
What is selenium?

What are the ramifications of having a diet where you do not get enough selenium?
Selenium is an essential micronutrient

Lack of selenium leads to dilated cardiomyopathy, congestive heart failure, striated muscle degeneration, weakenes (AKA Keshan disease)
What is Keshan disease caused by and what are its symptoms?
caused by lack of selenium

leads to cardiomyopathy, congestive heart failure, flabby heart
Why do we need selenium?

slide 18
because it is an essential part of a small number of proteins (about 25)

most selenoproteins catalyze oxido-reduction reactions
What do selenoproteins do? And an example.

slide 18
they catalyze oxido-reduction reactions

ex. Gluthione peroxidase 5'-delodinases (T4--->T3)
What does a Gluthione Peroxidase do?

slide 19
Destroys reactive damaging H2O2

Reduces organic peroxides (R-OOH to R-OH)

uses Gluthiathione (G-SH) as a reducing agent

Glutathione is oxidized and peroxide is reduced
where is glutamate attached to G-SH glutathione?
one the gamma carbon
What is used to convert dietary idodide to activated iodine [I]ox?

When is Selenium incorporated into a protein?
Cotranslatinally, ie, at the time of translation
How is a selenocysteine incorporated into a protein?
considered to be the 21 amino acid.

Uses a modified UGA codon (usually a stop codon.

Later will have a UAA codon and after in the 3' UTR will have SECIS element which helps the cell to recognize that the UGA codon should be the SeCys and not a stop
Where and how is selenium attached to protein?
Attached to a Ser-tRNA residue by HSePo3^-2 using ATP

becomes SeCys-tRNA

The selenocysteine tRNAs are initially charged with serine by seryl-tRNA ligase, but the resulting Ser-tRNA(Sec) is not used for translation because it is not recognised by the normal translation factor (EF-Tu in bacteria, EF1-alpha in eukaryotes). Rather, the tRNA-bound seryl residue is converted to a selenocysteyl-residue by the pyridoxal phosphate-containing enzyme selenocysteine synthase. Finally, the resulting Sec-tRNA(Sec) is specifically bound to an alternative translational elongation factor (SelB or mSelB) which delivers it in a targeted manner to the ribosomes translating mRNAs for selenoproteins.
What is vitamin K essential for?
koagulatin

Vitamin K mediates gamma-carboxlation
What is selenocystein? selenoprotein?
Selenocysteine has a structure similar to cysteine, but with an atom of selenium taking the place of the usual sulfur.
Proteins that contain one or more selenocysteine residues are called selenoproteins.
What happens when the SEICS element is deleted in translation of a selenoprotein?
the UGA that is normally used in this instance to code for the selenocysteine instead is read as a stop codon and the protein is truncated
What reaction does vitamin K mediate?
Gamma carboxylation

is a post translational modification where an additional carboxyl is attached to gamma carbon of Glutamate
What is Vitamin K / cogulation inhibited by?

slide 22
Coumadin
warfarin - used as toxin for rats

nope but can affect other proteins in the body
How does glycosylation of RBC occur?
occurs spontaneously, not catalyzed by anything
what is AGE?
advanced glycosylated endproducts,
caused by gyoslyation of proteins
How could you get a false high AIC?
RBC live longer than expected. Could be caused by someone who lacks a spleen - this is where RBC go to die
