Enzyme Review 1
BEAR program Exam Prep
| Factors | Characteristics |
|---|---|
| Double-Rciprocal plot | Lineweaver Burk (L-B) Plot 1/V on y-axis 1/[S] on x-axis |
| Holoenzyme | cofactor+enzyme |
| Apoenzyme | protein part of Holoenzyme |
| Non protein co-factor | metal ions (example Ze+, Fe+) |
| Coenzymes | Small organic molecules often derivatives of vitamins |
| Endergonic Reaction | Needs energy to proceed; free energy is positive |
| Exergonic Reaction | Energy is released; free energy is negative |
| Reaction Rate | Number of subtrate molecules converted per unit of time Directly proportional to enzyme concentration at all [S] |
| [S]< Km | Velocity is directly proportional [S], first order, dependant on [S] |
| [S]>Km | velosity is constant, equal to Vmax,independant of [S], Zero order |
| Big Km | high concentration of substrate needed to 1/2 saturate enzyme, low affinity |
| Small Km | low concentration of substance needed to 1/2 saturate enzyme; high affinity |
| Km | substrate concentration at 1/2 Vmax |
| Vmax | saturation of all available binding sites on the enzyme molecules |
| Competative Inhibition | Binds substrate reversibly, Vmax doesn't change, Km increases, L-B plot y-intercept the same |
| Non-competative Inhibition | binds different site on enzyme than substrate; can bind E or ES, Vmax Decreases, No change in Km, L-B plot same x-intercept |
| Six major classes | Oxidoreductase, Transferase, Hydrolase, Lyase, Isomerase, Ligase |
| Systemic Enzyme Naming | Name of substrate (more than one use colon) followed by action performed + ase |
| Regulating enzyme number | gene expression, covelent modification of proenzymes, proteolytic activity |
| Denature Enzyme | Extreme pH or temperature |
| Active Site | special pocket or cleft that creats 3-# surface complementary to substrate, chemical facilitation of substrate to product via stabilizing transition state and catalytic groups |
| Kinase | phosphorylates- adds a phosphate group to- proteins (+P) |
| Phosphotase | dephosphorylates- removes a phosphate group from- protiens (-P) |
| Equilibrium | delta G is 0 |
| Michaelis-Menten Equation (M-M eq) | V = (Vmax[S])/(Km+[S]) |
| Lineweaver-Burk Equation(L-B eq) | (1/V)=(Km/Vmax[S]) +(1/Vmax[S]) |
| y = mx + b | (x,y) points on graph. b = y-intercept. m= slope. In L-B plot m= (Km/Vmax) |
| Ribozymes | RNA's that act as enzymes |
| Homotropic Effector | when substrate serves as effector |
| Heterotropic effector | when effector differs from substrate |
| Allosteric Enzyme | Binds substrate + small, physiologically important molecule that can alter activity; composed of multiple subunits |
| Effector | Molecules that bind non-covalently at a site other than the active site; Can alter the Km and/or Vmax |
| Positive and negative effectors | Positive- increases enzyme activity; Negative- decreases enzyme activity |
| Isozyme (Isoenzyme) | catalyze same reaction but have different physical properties due to genetically different amnio acid sequences |
| zymogen | inactive precursors of enzymes involved in blood coagulation |
| Enzyme | Protein catalyst that increases the rate of reaction without being changed in the process; high specificity and catalytic efficiency (lowers activation energy of a reaction) |
| Free Energy | energy associated with a chemcial reaction that can be used to do work; change in free energy predicts which direction a reaction will spontaneously proceed |
| Oxidoreductase | catalyzes oxidation-reduction reactions where hydrogen, oxygen or electrons are transferred between molecules |
| Transferases | transfers atoms or groups of atoms/molecules |
| Hydrolases | cleaves bonds by adding water |
| Lyases | elimination reaction; removes group(s) of atoms |
| Isomerases | catalyzes interconversion of isomers (isomers- same chemical formula, different structure) |
| Ligases | catalyzes formation fo bonds and hydrolysis of high energy phosphates |
| Plasma | fluid, non-cellular part of blood |
| Serum | result of centrifuged, coagulated blood |
