Chapter 5 Microbial Metabolism Flashcards
________ is endergonic, biosynthesis, made by dehydration synthesis, needs energy, and “builds”
anabolism
_________ is exergonic, degraditive reaction, hydrolysis, releases energy, “breaks down”
catabolism
Two processes that typically work in unison , one produces energy one uses it
coupling reaction
A functional protein is an?
enzyme
Lowers energy of activation (Ea)
enzyme
Speeds up reactions by 10’s of thousands times
enzyme
increases reaction rate without raising the temp
enzyme
_________ are specific and named after _________
enzymes, substates
What makes up enzymes?
apoenzyme
co-factor
co-enzyme
holoenzyme
____________ are specific for a chemical reaction, not used up in that reaction
biological catalysts
Apoenzyme is a ?
protein
Cofactor is a ?
non-protein component
Coenzyme is a?
organic factor
Holoenzyme is a?
apoenzyme plus cofactor
the ______ can assist by being electron carriers, acting as bridges to a substrate, and or accepting and donating atoms needed by a substrate
cofactor
Substrate contacts the _______ of an enzyme
active site
substrate gets atomically rearranged after the enzyme-substrate complex is formed causing the _____ to no longer fit
product
after an enzyme is free’d from a substrate complex it can?
react with another substrate
