BCHM Flashcards
A positive hydropathy index means the a.a are
hydrophobic - mor likely to bein PL - transmembrane NP - related to the number of spikes/stretches
what is Km
Km is the concentration of substrate which permits the enzyme to achieve half Vmax.
What is the DV in experiment that determines the MM kinetic parameters
initial velocity
how many molecules of NADH produced from 6 molecules of glucose that undergo glycolysis
12 - 2 NADH each glucose
lipid with unsat chains at high temp causes (disorder or order)
disorder
what happens when a G protein coupled receptor is activated
the alpha subunit binds to GTP
What is least likely to happen during apop and likely
NOT: damage to nearby cells causes by lysis( necrosis) but they DO: cause cytochrome c release, caspase activation, cell shrinkage, and blebbing
which compound is NOT a component of CAC
pyruvate
a.a. with the highest isoelectric point
arginine - most basic, has positive charge
which a.a form H bond with glutamate (-)
has to be one with hydrogen donor group - gln - not asp because opposing neg charges
uncompetivie inhibito parameters
low, low
slope of the lineweaver plot is
Km/Vmax
formula of MM equation
Vmax S/ Km + S
catalytic efficiency of an enzyme is given
by kcat/kM
specific activity is a measure of
the enzyme units per milligram of total protein in solution
