7 Flashcards
function of serine protease
to digest food: trypsin, chymotrtpsin
coagulate blood: thrombim and brkdown blood clot )plasmoin)
form a catalytic triiad vinvolveing HIS 57, Ser, Asp
what happens in SERINE PROTEASE hydrolysis?
His accepts a proton from Ser. forms a transient cov bond to the substrate protein
cleaves its N-C bond in half
lysozyme = part of ____ _____ system
has __ @ active site
found in tears ___ and saliva
stabilize by ___ bonds
innate immune
Asp
mucus
disulfide
Enzyme lower delta G = activation E
to lower the delta G
1) Enzyme binds to __ S, reorg the __ rxn
2) rearrange the e— to encourage a favourable __/___ ___
3) strains the S, encourage a favourable ___ ___
2 / encourage
+/- charge
transietn state
what is a transient state
transient high Energ state
an intermeidate from btw product and reactants
bonds on the verge of breaking and forming
describes Enzymes
can be __ or __:
fidelity:
perform nearly all chemical transformation
ACCELERATE =/ dissapear
mostly proteins
- can be specific or not: recognize 1 or thousands molec
fidelity: almost never fail
in mild condition: 37C or neutral pH
how does it work?
has a cleaaget: __ ___
E has a small active site (5%) where rxn happens
S binds to E @ active site -> ES complex -> catalysis -> form EP complex -> release -> regenerate
Has a cleft where S binds: multiple weak bonds, binding is reversible
iN ES, cleavage brks bond in half
enzyme kinetics
study of rate of rxn as influenced by c of S, inhibitor and E’s affinity for S
describe the enzyme kinetic graph
S starts @ high concentration
as S binds to E tp make ES complex, both >
=> ES increase until it achieves an unchanging steady state
> enzyme kinetic is determine @ that steady state
describe v0 and S plot
v- is rate of txn
Km is determined at half of V max
as S <. v0 also increase until it ahieves vmax
what is zymogen function? e.g
serine protease is initially created as zympgen = an inactive enzyme
in this case trypsinogen
to have a storage of zymogen activ if needed and not harm as E
compounds tht resemble the transition state bt doesnt undergo the rxn (similar geometry, charge distri)
transition state analogue
are excellent competiive inhibitors bcs they ind tightly, block active sight
tamiflu is a neuraminidase inhibitor that prevent flu virus from releaseing itself from host
cofactor need apoenzyems. T OR F
F. apoenzymes need cofactors. can be essential or elevate the rate of exn.
what is the Michaelis-Menten equation
v (initial) = v max x [S] / Km + [S]\
starts with low c of S. as you < color gets bluuer and V <
what is the Michaelis constant
Km
- reflects E’s affinity for S
- independent of E concentration
