proteins contain lots of _

nitrogen

Aa can be used for _

-protein synth


-glucose synth


-ketogen


-synth of N containing stuff like nucleotides, neyroTs

Aa contain two thing

alpha amino group (NH3)


carbon skeleton

what happens to parts of Aa

alpha amino grp gets extreted in urine as urea or NH4


C skeleton gets metabolized inot TCA cycle intermediate, or made into glucose

digestion of proetins happens where

in stomach and small intestine

in stomach, theres __ which is protease that digest whole proteins into polypeps and invd Aa

pepsin

complete digestion happens in _ of _

lumen of small intestine

trypsin is the master protease. it is synth as a __ known as __ which is inactive. once it comes into contact with __, then another protease known as __ cuts off portion converting it to trypsin. then trypsin cleaves __.

zymogen known as trypsinogen.


dietary proteins, enteropeptidase.


trypsin cleaves series of other zymogens, activating them.

reason for this is

want to keep them inactive until needed.

trypsin two main roles

-cut peptide bond next to arginine and lysine, helps digest them


-cleaves more small zymogens, activating them

so now they are all di-peps and tri-peps and indv __

Aa

now these can be __ into __ and released as __, where theyre carried to the __ by circulation

absorbed into enterocytes, Aa into the bld stream. carried to liver.

c skeletons of Aa can be used to make (once nitrogen has been made into urea)

glucose


ketons or FA


ATP (via TCA)

intracellular proteins are marked for degredations by __

ubiquitin proteasome system

first step is to attach sm protein called__

ubiquitin

ubiquinated proteins then sent to the _ for degradation

proteasome

__complex binds to UB protein, __ them, threads a linear __ into the core of the complex

-barrel-shaped


-unfolds them


-threads linear polypeptide thru proteolytic core

when leave proteasome, they are in form of __

small peptides



sm peptides degraded further into Aa by

non specific proteases

this process is for __ proteins

endogenous

proteasome pathway is active when ___ is low. bc Aa needed for _

when insulin is low bc Aa needed for gluconeogenesis

diets rich in protein stim enough __ to not degrade muscle

stim enough insulin

Steps for Aa metabolism.


Aa can come frmo __ or __

dietary proteins


endogenous proteins

1) Removal of __

alpha amino grp (NH3)

can be done two ways:


-transfer a amino grp to __ (catalyzed by __)


-__ deamination (process where a amino grp directly cleaved off as NH3)

-alpha keto acceptor (by aminotransferases)


-oxidative deamination

after deamination, amino grp goes to __ and the C skeleton goes to __ for complete oxidation (fed state) or to __ (fasted state)

-urea cycle for disposal.


-TCA cycle, make glucose or make ketones

fate of Aa depends on

whether in fasted or fed state.

Carbon skels of glucogenic Aa are used to make glucose during __. they enter cycle __ of __.

gluceneogenesis.


enter downstream of alpha ketoglutarate.

C skels of ketogenic Aa can ONLY be used to make ketones. its bc their C skels metabolize to __. in fasting state, most __ will be converted to ketones bc of lack of __

their C skels metabolize to acetyl-coA. acetyl coA gets turned into ketones in fasting state bc of lack of OAA.

in aminotransferase rn, the __ grp of one __ is transfered to __ of a __. makes new __ and new __.

alpha amino grp of Aa transfered to alpha positino of an alpha-keto acid acceptor. makes new alpha keto acid, and new Aa.

enzyme used is

aminotransferase

there are 12 dif __ in our bodies. each have dif.


every Aa has corresponding __

aminotransferases. each has dif substrate.


corresponding alpha-keto acid.

another word for carbon skeletons of Aa

alpha-keto acids

all aminotransfer rns need __.


all are __.

need PLP (vit B6)


are reversible.

after this, glutamate can get oxidatively deaminated by ___ to regenerate alpha-ketoglutarate and make __. This will enter urea cycle or be __. depends on what hepatocytes it happens in .

glutamate dehydrogenase. makes NH4. goes to urea or incorp into glutamine, depends.

Glucose-Alanine cycle:


way for __

muscles to makes glucose without brking down own proteins

muscle cells cant to __, rely on hepatocytes

cant do gluconeogenesis

When needed, muscle proteins degreade to Aa. __grps transfered to __, makes glutamate. then __ tranfered to pyruvate to make __ (by ALT enz).

alpha-amino grps transfer to alpha-ketoglutarate. then alpha-amino transfer to pyruvate.

alanine goes___

into blood to the liver

once in the liver, alpha-amino grp is ___ onto ___ makes pyrivate and glutamate (by ALT enz).


Pyruvate gets __. the glutamate gets __, enters __.

transfered back onto new molec of alpha-ketoglutarate.


pyruvate to glucose thru normal gluceneogenesis.


glutamate deaminated, NH4 does to urea cycle.

ALT enzyme is present in both __ cells.


catalyzed opposite rns the cells types both during FASTING.

muscle and liver.



its the __ and __ that are transported btwn muscle and liver. __ doesnt get transported, just exists in both tissues

alanine and glucose.


alpha keto glutarate doesnt get transported.

arginosuccinate to urea is catalyzed by

arginine

2 sources of N in urea

ammonia and aspartate (from AST rn)

stages where ATP used for urea cycle

with carbamoyl synthetase 1


and


when aspartate to arginosuccinate

where does ATP come from for urea cycle

from FA oxidation )B ox)

aspartate from AST + ___ = ___


uses

citrulline = arginosuccinate


uses 1 ATP

if theres lots of E coming in , lots of acetyl coA, glutamate will accum.


enzyme will link 2 together and make

urea cycle go faster
