25
Q

when k’eq is 1

A

delta G is zero and is in equilibrium

26
Q

Redox

A

oxidation is loss of e- reduction is gain of e-

27
Q

Rank in order of how much energy can be made from oxidation of carbon? Co2, lipid, carbohydrate

A

Lipid>carb> CO2

28
Q

General acid base catalysis

A

amino acid side chains donate or accept protons to stabilize TS. with this, unstable intermediates break down rapidly to form reactants when proton transfer is show, only a small portion of intermediates are made, adding more proton donors and acceptors increase reaction rate.

29
Q

Mixed inhibition where it is non-competative

A

rare only when alpha = alpha’ Kcat and vmax are affect Km remains the same

30
Q

what does lyase do?

A

addition of groups to double bond, formation of double bonds by removal of groups

31
Q

how does ES complex form?

A

multiple weak non-covalent interacts provide specificity as well as catalysis enzymes are optimized to bind the transition state

32
Q

Keq

A

Kf/kr = [c][d]/[a][b]

33
Q

what bonds make the high energy bonds in ATP

A

phosphoanhydride where ADP and AMP are more stable than ATP nucleophilic attach can occur at 3 positions where they transfer a phosphoryl transfer

34
Q

Entropy

A

S - qualitative exp for disorder Positive: disorder increases (favorable) negative : disorder degreses (unfavorable)

35
Q

what do oxidoreductase enzymes do?

A

transer electrons

36
Q

Cofactor

A

either one or more inorganic ions such as Fe2+, Mg2+, Mn2_ and Zn2+ provide chemical groups and are not used up alcohol dehydrogenase

37
Q

Velocity of enzymatic reaction is dependent on..

A

concentration of substrate low [sub] low velocity at saturation v = vmax

38
Q

A

create a negative number!

41
Q

Irreversible Inhibtion

A

combine with or destroy a functional group on enzyme that is essential for their activity Penicillin cymotrypsin

42
Q

Allosteric Regulation of enzyme

A

Binding of another molecule, a regulator, to change conformation of enzyme to alter its function. Most feedback loops are regulated this way

43
Q

Reduction potential

A

E readiness to accept electron positive value is ready to gain electrons; negative is ready to loose electrons

44
Q

transition state theory

A

there is a single path for ground state to convert to the ground state of product and the TS is the highest energy state along this path. At TS, the reaction is equally likely to go forward or reverse

45
Q

How do enzymes work?

A

provide a specific environment within with a given reaction can occur more frequently. Decreases the rate of a reaction and does not affect reaction equilibria. lowers the activation energy (transition state)

46
Q

Mixed Inhibition

A

bind to both E and ES complex reversible Km, Vmax, and Kcat are affected. V = Vmax [S]/(alphaKm +alpha’ [S])

A

1) make primarily of proteins with specific structures and active sites 2) some use cofactors or coenzymes 3) they are classified and named by what they do

51
Q

how are unfavorable reactions cone

A

by coupling!

52
Q

Electrical field in bioenergetics

A

increasing different in electrical potential increases delta G.

56
Q

how is gradient concentration related to bioenergetics

A

delta G is a function of the lob of [prod]/[reactants], generate more work by large gradient If you have more products than reactants, dG is positive If you have more reactants than products, dG is negative

57
Q

how do enzymes lower activation energy?

A

Lock and key model is not a suitable model because TS has equally high energy Induced Fit: where enzyme is complimentary transition state to lower activation energy
