Enzyme Specificity
Reaction Specificity
32

34
Conformation or confirmation based on the presence of a particular amino acid.
Concepts of R groups, polarity, hydrophobicity
Stereoselective
35
Important because the active part of the enzyme is the active site.
Presence of inhibitors
Site targeting
36
o Can accelerate a reaction (109 - 1020)
Efficient
37
molecular species consisting of a substrate (S) bound to the active site of an enzyme (E)
Enzyme-substrate (ES) complex
38
Two scenarios in ES complex
Easy Fit
| Enzyme would need to adjust
39
Transient product is formed if
during the scenario that enzyme slightly adjusted
transient - sandali lang
40
Transition state
when the activation energy has been OVERCOME and the products are formed leaving the active site of an enzyme
41
REMEMBER THAT
| role of enzyme on formation of product
the enzyme does not participate thermodynamically in the formation of the product.
It just simply hastens the formation of product in the active site of the enzyme.
with that the enzyme CAN STILL BE RECOVERED
Doe NOT affect final product. it only acts as ACCELERATOR
42
Role of trypsin
Catalyzes the hydrolysis of peptide bonds formed by the carboxyl group of LYSINE and ARGININE
43
• The intermediate compound formed from the combining of catalysts with the substrate
Enzyme-substrate complex
44
Binding of the active site occurs through
NON-COVALENT INTERACTION
45
o Enzymes speed up a reaction by
LOWERING THE ACTIVATION ENERGY of a given reaction
the enzyme will help primarily the substate and enzyme to attain a transition state
46
rate of appearance of products or rate of disappearance of substrate
• Rate of a chemical reaction
47
(highest
point on an energy diagram of a
reaction)
Transition state
48
the necessary
amount of energy and the correct
arrangement of atoms to produce
products
highest amount of
energy required and there should be a
correct arrangement of atoms to produce
a product
Transition state
49
the amount of energy inputted and is
computed based on the exponent on the
rate equation
Order of reaction
50
– reaction that
proceeds at a constant rate and is
independent of reactant
Zero order
51
rate reacts on the
first power of the concentration of
a single reaction
First order
52
rate is
proportional to the products of the
concentration of the two reactants
Second order
53
No adjustments can be made in the conformation
Lock and key model mechanism
54
Active site becomes modified to accommodate the substrate
Induced fit model
55
```
Assumes small (minor) but continuous changes in the active
site structures
```
Induced fit mode
56
active site is a rigid, inflexible 3D body
Lock and key model mechanism
57
Type of inhibitor: assembles the structure of normal substrate
and it's capable of binding to the active site of the
enzyme
Competitive
58
Type of inhibitor: both the inhibitor and substrate can bind
| simultaneously to two different sites on the enzyme
Noncompetitive
59
Type of inhibitor: allow substrate to bind the active site and or binds
only to the ES complex and not with the free
enzyme; thus, influencing the activity of the enzyme
only when the substrate concentration and, in turn,
ES concentration are high
Uncompetitive
60
Type of inhibitor: there is another site other than the active site that
the substrate can bind to and as well as inhibitor
Noncompetitive
61
Type of inhibitor: follows allosterism
Noncompetitive
62
an efficient
enzyme control mechanism because the entire series of
reactions can be shut down, when an excess of the final
product exists, thus preventing the accumulation of the
intermediary products (called intermediates) in the
pathway or sequence of reaction
Enzyme Regulation
63
What are the enzyme regulations
Feedback control
Proenzyme (Zymogen)
Allosterism
64
Also known as Feedback inhibition / End product
| inhibition
Feedback control
65
An enzyme-regulation process where the product of a
series of enzyme-catalyzed reactions inhibits an earlier
reaction in the sequence.
Feedback control
66
Enzyme regulation wherein
| The inhibition may be competitive or noncompetitive.
Feedback control
67
An inactive form of an enzyme that must have part of its
polypeptide chain hydrolyzed and removed before it
becomes active.
Proenzyme / Zymogen
68
Digestive enzymes / proteolytic enzymes that are initially produced as
zymogen
Trypsin / Trypsinogen
Chymotrypsin / chymotrypsinogen
It becomes active only after a six amino acid
fragment is hydrolyzed and removed from the end
terminal end of its chain. In so doing, removal of these
small fragments changes not only the primary structure,
but also the tertiary structure, allowing the molecule to
achieve its active form.
69
Type of inhibition that has NO CATALYTIC REACTION
Noncompetitive
70
Enzyme regulation based on an event occurring at a place
other than the active site but that creates a change in the
active site
Allosterism
71
An enzyme regulated by allosterism is called an
allosteric enzyme
72
Inhibition of an allosteric
| enzyme
Negative modulation
73
Stimulation of an allosteric
| enzyme.
Positive modulation
74
Process of affecting enzyme activity by COVALENTLY MODIFYING it
Protein modification
75
Causes a change in the primary structure through the
addition of a functional group covalently bound to the
apoenzyme
Protein modification
76
Enzyme that occurs in multiple forms that each catalyzes the
| same reaction
ISOZYMES/ ISOENZYMES
77
• A molecule whose shape mimics the transition state of s
| substrate
Transition state analogs
78
When they mimic, they can now be used as enzyme
| inhibitors.
Transition state analogs
79
An antibody that has catalytic activity because it was
| created using a transition state analog as an immunogen
Abzymes
80
This is the principle in making designer enzymes by
biotechnology molecular technology then you'll be able
to prepare or make designer enzymes to be able to
catalyze various types or a wide variety of reactions
TRansition state analog (Abzymes?)
81
• Series of mathematical relationship that explains the
| behavior of non-allosteric enzymes
Michaelis Menton Equation
82
Combination of zero order and 1st order kinetics
Michaelis Menton Equation
When S is low, the equation for rate is 1st order in S
• When S is high, the equation for rate is 0-order in S
83
describes the velocity of enzymes
catalyst reaction where there is saturating
level of the substrate
V max:
v max can be used to
determine the individual rate
constant but to a certain extent
84
What is KM
Michaelis constant
85
it is mathematically equal to the substrate
concentration that generates half of the
maximum velocity
Michaelis constant (KM)
86
Disadvantage of Michaelis-menton equation
you will be able to calculate now the velocity
given the substrate concentration but only to a certain
extent because there is a saturation point
87
The curve is hyperbolic compared to other graphs
which are sigmoidal. So it gives you a rectangular
hyperbolic dependency curve of the velocity on the
substrate
Michaelis constant equation
