enyzmes and bioenergetics Flashcards
Phase 1 of respiration
oxidation of fuels
Phase 2 of respiration
ATP generation from oxidative phosphorylation
Activation Energy
delta G
delta H < 0
exothermic
delta H > 0
endothermic
delta G (-)
spontaneously forward
delta G (+)
Spontaneously reverse
Decrease activation energy and increase rate of reaction
enzymes
links the hydrolysis of ATP to the phosphorylation of glucose in an energetically favorable reaction
hexokinase
Michealis-Mentere V=
V (rate of rx)= Vmax[S}/Km + [S]
Inhibitor that binds at substrate site and prevents substrate binding
Competitive
Inhibitor that increase Km, no change to Vmax
Competitive
Inhibitor that bind an enzyme and inhibit its activity
Noncompetitive
Inhibitor that decrease Vmax, no change to Km
Noncompetitive
Inhibitor that binds a substrate and cause a conformational change
Allosteric
DTTP
deoxythymide triphosphate
Enzyme converts glucose to glucose 6-phosphate
hexokinase
Enzyme converts phospoenolpyruvate (PEP) to pyruvate
pyruvate kinase
Byproduct of PEP to pyruvate
ADP to ATP
Enzymes affect on delta G?
No effect
Michaelis constant, [S] at which v = 1/2Vmax
Km
Maximum reaction rate
Vmax
Low Km, higher Vmax
Activator
high Km, lower Vmax
Inhibitor
