What is chitin?
polymer of an amino sugar exoskeleten of arthropods, cell walls of some fungi
Uses of proteins
Structure (hain, nails, fibrin), Transport (hemoglobin), Signaling (chem messengers (hormones) protein receptors, movement (myosin, actin), defense (antibodies), enzymes
Amino acids are joined together by...
peptide bonds (COOH + NH2)
Primary structure of a protein
linear unbranched aas
Secondary structure of a protein
alpha helix coils and Beta Pleated sheets *H-bonds*
Tertiary Structure
~ by interactions btwn R-groups(weak) and strong disulfide bonds
Quternary Structure
H-bonds, 2 or more poly peptide chains
Denaturation of proteins causes
pH, temperature, salinity
Lipids are --- and LDF
non-polar, holds them together
What are for classes of Lipids?
Fats (sat and unsat), Phospholipids (lipid bilayer), Steroids,(cholesterol-stabilizes struture of cell membranes and can be made into vitamens, bile salts and hormones)
Lipids are --- and LDF
non-polar, holds them together
What are for classes of Lipids?
Fats (sat and unsat), Phospholipids (lipid bilayer), Steroids,(cholesterol-stabilizes struture of cell membranes and can be made into vitamens, bile salts and hormones), Waxes ( fatty acid-alcohols)
Nucleic Acids function
transmits hereditary info, chemical NRG, subunits of coenzyems
(DNA, mRNA, tRNA, rRNA)
ATP does work
mechanical, transport, chemical
Enzymes are ____ specific, when _______ bind to active sites, enzymes undergo _______fit, [substrate] effects _____ rate
substrate (2), reaction
Factors effecting Enzyme activity
pH and temperature, cofactors (vitamins and Zn...)
competitive inhibitors
chemicals that resmeble an enzyme's normal substrat and compete for active site
noncompetitive inhibitors
bind to other part of an enzyme than active site and causes enzyme to change shape
allosteric site
receptor site and activate or inhibit an enzyme
feedback inhibition
regulation of a metabolic pathway by its end product binding to allosteric site
cooperativity
substrate binding to active site of 1 subunit that helps other substrats bind to theirs
Localiztion of Enzymes help ___ metabolism
orders
Summary of glycolysis
no C lost, each step enzyme catalyzed, partial oxidation of glucose, glucose rearranged and split
products vs. reactants in glycolysis
glucose, 2 ATP vs. 2 ATP, NaDH, 2 pyruvic acid
products vs. reactants in The Krebs Cycle
pyruvate + oxalacete = citric acid vs. NADH=8, FADH2=2, CO2=6, ATP=2
substrate level phosphoration
enzyme takes P1 from one molecule to ADP making ATP.
cristae
H+ pumps and other proteins embedded
dehyrogenase
accepts electrons from NADH
intermembrane space
high [h+]
chemiosomosis
movement of H+ down proton gradient accross a membrane coupled w/ ATP synthesis
Total # of ATP produced in ETC
36-38
oxidative phosphorlation
pass e- down ETC to make H20 and ATP
Where does photosynthesis happen?
in the thylakoid of a chloroplast
What happens?
light induces e- to pass through groups of chloroplasts in PSII to rxn center Chloroplast a. e- travel to H+ pump that pumps in H+ into the thylakoid space. ATP is made thru photophosphoration w/ the proton current. e- replaced w/ the splitting of water. in PSI, e- travel to NADP reductase to make NADPH
Why does the cyclic cycle happen?
to make more ATP. PS1 the e- go back to rxn center and do not make NADPH
Location of calvin cycle
stroma
What happens in the calvin cycle?
RuBP binds to Rubisco. Co2 enters and binds--> C6 compound. ATP and NADPH NRG added to make PGAL. RuBP regenrates
Reasons why calvin cycle does no occur at night
stomates close during the day, NADPH and ATP can't be made w/o light and last only for a few minutes, Rubisco is light activated
