enzyme III
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| enzymes activity | measured as the rate of product formation and varies with the substrate concentration |
| V = S ----> P | velocity is disappearance of substrate and appearance of product |
| zero order | velocity rate does not depend on substrate concentration |
| unimolecular first order | velocity rate is dependent on the concentration of only one substrate V= A ----> P ; V= k [A] |
| bimolecular second order | velocity rate is dependent on two substrate concentrations v = A + B ----> P v= k [A] [B] |
| many enzymes obey _________ kinetics | Michaelis-Menten |
| Michaelis-Menten | enzyme catalyzed reactions in terms of Km and Vmax |
| Problems? | ES is difficult to measure |
| Michaelis Constant | Km = k-1+k2 / k1 |
| Michaelis Menten Equation | v = Vmax [S] / Km + [S] |
| The Michaelis-Menten Equation is | hyperbolic |
| Km | substrate concentration at 1/2 Vmax |
| Km is unique for | each enzyme substrate pair |
| Lower the Km | more efficient the enzyme is at low substrate concentrations and vive versa |
| Kcat = catalytic rate constant aka turnover | The number of substrate molecules transformed into product molecules by an enzyme per unit time when the enzyme is saturated with the substrate |
| kcat/KM = catalytic efficiency | How avidly the enzyme binds its substrate and how rapidly it converts the substrate to product |
| The Lineweaver-Burk plot linearizes | Michaelis-Menten kinetics data |
| Lineweaver-Burk | 1 / V = ( Km / Vmax ) 1 / [S] + 1 / Vmax |
| The slope in a Lineweaver-Burk plot | Km / Vmax |
| Not all enzymes fir the Michaelis-Menten model because | some enzymes have multiple substrates |
| Not all enzymes fir the Michaelis-Menten model because | some enzyme-catalyzed reactions have many steps |
| Velocity plot is | sigmoidal |
| Allosteric enzymes exhibit | cooperativity |
| substances that bind ________ to an enzyme can inhibit its activity | irreversibly |
| competitive inhibitor | increase Km without affecting Vmax |
| noncompetitive inhibitor | decreases Vmax without affecting Km |
| Allosteric regulators can | inhibit or activate enzymes |
| 5-Fluorouracil | a suicide inhibitor |
| competitive inhibitors bind to | the sam site as the substrate |
| Transition state analogs | often make better inhibitors than substrate analogs |
| allosteric regulation can inhibit or enhance enzyme activity ? T or F | True, glucose ----> phosphofructokinase (ADP) ---> phosphoenolpyruvate |
| This type of inhibitor binds to a site other that the active site on the enzyme | noncompetitive inhibitor |
