Myoglobin

-Located in Sarcoplasm ( cytoplasm of multinecleate muscle cell)


Heme

prosthetic group

confirmational chanage in heme

-pucker- hemoglobin bends out to bind to proximal his


02 pulls iron back to center from other face of heme


-distal his pulls O2 away preventing oxidation

Hemoglobin

-2 alpha 2 beta heterotetramer


-O2 binding can be measure photospectrometerically at 580nm

Kd

[P][L]/[P-L]

Theta

occupied sites/ total sites


[P-L]/([P-L]+[P])= [L]/([L]+Kd)


O2/(O2+Kd)


pO2/(pO2+p50)

Michaelis-Menten'Equaton

where V0 is the instantaneous change of concentration of Product over time

where V0 is the instantaneous change of concentration of Product over time

Oxidoreductases


remove hydrogen atoms from (oxidize) a donor molecule and concomitantly add hydrogen atoms to (reduce) an acceptor molecule.

Transferases

transfer a group of atoms (such as an acetyl moiety or a phosphoryl group) from one
molecule (usually an "activated" donor) to another molecule (acceptor). Such enzymes can also catalyze the attachment of such substituents as amino groups or acyl chains to other molecules.

Hydrolases

cleave a bond by adding the atoms of a water molecule across it. Such enzymes catalyze the hydrolysis of the anhydride bonds in all biopolymers, namely proteins (amide bonds),
polysaccharides (glycoside bonds), lipids (ester bonds), and nucleic acids (phosphodiester bonds).

Lysases

remove a group of atoms (like CO2 or H2O) from a substrate, leaving a double bond; or,
conversely, add a group of atoms across a double bond. Such enzymes include those that can add (or remove) a group HX (where X is a substituent other than OH) across alkene, imine, and carbonyl bonds.

Isomerases

change the relative configuration of atoms within a molecule with respect to one another
without changing the total number of atoms. Such enzymes can carry out epimerization, racemization, and
other interconversions of stereoisomers.

Ligases

join two previously separate molecules together, using the energy derived from cleavage of
a pyrophosphate bond in ATP to drive the reaction. Such enzymes can lead to formation of C-O, C-N, C-S, and C-C bonds.

Bohr effect

Acidity and higher CO2 concentration causes Hb to release O2


-in muscles where CO2 and H+ concentrations are high, the hemoglobin will relase O2 to help

Explain the saturation curve of Hb

sigmoidal: When it starts to bond, the affinity increases, afterwards is it rate dependent then it decreases

Dihydrofolate reductase

When dUMP turns to DTMP which turns to DNA


- DHFR turns NADPH+ H+ --> NADP

Hallmarks of enzyme-mediated catalysis

1. Tremendous rate enhancement


2. Occurs under physiological conditions


3. Precise reaction: highly selective for substrates; stereo-specific products


4. Subject to metabolic regulation

How does an active site expedite a chemical reaction

1. Entropy gain from substrates shedding water of solvation and displacing water bound in active site


2. Molecular complementary


3. H-bonds and salt bridges between groups on substrates and side chains in the active site are stronger in the absense of competition or shielding by water


4. Binding at the active site holds the substrates in close procimity


5. some binding energy expended to introduce strain into bonds into induced fit

linear plot of Michaelis Menten eqn

Kcat

same as k2, turnover number per second

Specificity constant

Kcat/Km


A good enzyme has a high Kcat and a low Km

Reversible inhibitors (4 types)

Do not covalently react with enzyme


(1) Competitive (Transition state analogues) Vmax constant, Km --> alpha(Km)


(2) Uncompetitive (Lowers Vmax, Lowers Km)


(3) Mixed inhibition (binds both to enzyme and enzyme substate complex) EI <--> ESI as well, increases Km, decreases Vmax


(4) Noncompetitive inhibitors (special case where Ki = Ki') Km doesn't change

Progression from primary polypeptide to mature protein: alpha Chymotrypsin

-Hydrophobic chain at beginning acts as "baggage ticket" to enter cell

Km

(kr+kcat)/(kf)


kr=enzyme unbinding


kcat=product formation


kf=enzyme binding

(kr+kcat)/(kf)


kr=enzyme unbinding


kcat=product formation


kf=enzyme binding

What is the molecular structure of Sarin

Group specific reagents

Reactive substrate analogs

Suicide (Mechanism-based) inhibitors

Nonreactive until substrate starts to react with it


Catalysis generates the compound to make the enzyme become inactive

Configuration of active site of chymotrypsin

Asp102...His57-NH2... HO-Ser195

Acylation 1

Deacylation 2 (final step of mechanism)

Threonine products

Hydro xyethyl _TP


same enzyme uses 3 subsrates to create Ille , Val, Leu

K allosteric enzyme

small, sigmoidal curves


adding substrate --> more active sites


substate is an allosteric effector, makes binding to subrate easier.


Inhibitor Km increases, substrate to the left


vmax stays the same

Confirmational preferences

multiple isozymes subject to independent feedback inhibition (E-T)

How T, I, and V are kept in balance
