ENZYME (rodriguez) Flashcards
Proteins in nature produced by living cells that hasten chemical reaction in organic matter
Enzymes
large molecules that are normally confined within cekls unless increased membrane permeability allows them to enter the blood
enzymes
When does enxyme appear in serum
after cellular injury
degradation of cells
from storage areas
these are crucial in the diagnosis and management of organ dysfunctions and diseases
tissue and cellular locations of enzymes
factors affecting enzymatic reactions
Enzyme Concentration
Substrate Concentration
Cofactors
Isoenzymes
Temperature
Hydrogen Ion Concentration or pH
Storage
Hemolysis
Lactescense or milky specimen
what happens to enzymatic reaction if there is high enzyme concentration
enzymatic reaction us faster because more enzyme is present to bind with the substrate
(true or flase) with the amount of enzyme exceeding the amount of substrate, the reaction rate steadily decreases as more substrate is added
false
decreases-increases
(true or false) when substrate reaches a maximal value,higher concentration of substrate no longer results in increased rate of reactions
true
nonprotein entities that must bind to particular enzymes before a reaction occurs
cofactors
Cofactors
coenzymes
activators
metalloenzymes
organic cofactor(second substrate)
Coenzyme
why is coenzyne essential
to achieve absolute enzymatic activity
what happens to enzymatic reaction when the concentration of coenzyme increases
it will increase the velocity of an enzymatic reaction
examples of coenzyme
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)
Nicotinamide Adenune dinucleotide phosphate (NADP)
these are organic ions which alter the spatial configuratio of the enzyme for proper substrate binding
activators
example of activators
calcium
zinc
Chloride
magnesium
potassium
inorganic ions attached to a molecule
Metalloenzymes
example of metalloenzymes
catalase
cytochrome oxidase
Enzymatic reactions may not progress if this interferes with the reaction
Inhibitors
Examples of inhibitors
Competitive inhibitor
non-competitive inhibitor
uncompetitive inhibitor
it physically binds to the active site of an enzyme
Competitive Inhibitor
(true or false) in competitive inhibitor, both the substrateand inhibitor compete for the same active site of the enzyme
true
competitive inhibitor type of inhibition
reversible
substrates concentration is significantly higher than the concentration of inhibitor
the effect of competitive inhibitor can be counteracted by adding
excess substrate to bind with the enzyme
