A

When the free-energy change of the resulting complex is lower than the sum of the free energies of the two partners when unbound

73
Q

A

Binding energy because the larger K is, the greater the drop in free energy between dissociated and associated states and the more tightly molecules will bind

74
Q

What is binding energy?

A

The energy released in the binding interaction

75
Q

How do enzymes catalyze reactions that are energetically unfavorable?

A

Directly coupling energetically unfavorable reactions with favorable ones via carrier molecules or by keeping the product at low concentration by converting it or by removing it from the cell

76
Q

How is rapid binding of enzyme to substrate possible?

A

Molecular motions are extremely fast because heat energy allows them to be in constant motion and consequently will explore the cytosolic space efficiently by wandering randomly

77
Q

How are molecules held together?

A

They form many weak bonds like van der Waals, hydrogen bonds, and electrostatic attraction that allow them to be held together long enough for a covalent bond to be formed or broken

78
Q

Why do molecules dissociate?

A

The two colliding molecules with poorly matching surfaces yield few weak, non covalent bonds so their total energy is negligible compared to thermal motion so the two molecules dissociate rapidly

79
Q

What is the process of catalysis?

A

Enzyme binds to substrate, substrate undergoes reaction to form product (which initially remains bound to enzyme), product released and diffuses away, and enzyme is free to bind to another substrate and catalyze another reaction

80

A

concentration of product over concentration of reactant

81
Q

What are activated carriers?

A

Molecules that carry their bond energy from the sites of energy generation to the sites where energy is used for biosynthesis

A

The interior of the protein where they avoid the aqueous cytosol surrounding them inside the cell

85
Q

Why are hydrophobic molecules forced together?

A

To minimize disruption of hydrogen bonds in the surrounding water molecules

86
Q

Where do polar hydrophilic molecules form?

A

Arrange themselves inside near the outside of the folded protein where they form hydrogen bonds with water and other polar molecules

87
Q

How does a protein fold?

A

Generally folds into the shape in which the free energy of the protein is minimized in order to make folding more energetically favorable as it releases heat and increases disorder

88
Q

How can non covalent interactions be disrupted?

A

By treatment with solvents or heat that unfolds the protein in denaturation

111
Q

What is a dimer?

A

Two polypeptide chains form this symmetrical complex from identical binding sites of each monomer

112
Q

How are extracellular proteins like collagen and elastin stabilized?

A

By covalent cross-linkages in which two amino acids are joined together in the same polypeptide chain or several polypeptide chains are joined together in a protein complex

113
Q

How are disulfide bonds formed to stabilize extracellular proteins?

A

Formed before the protein is secreted in the endoplasmic reticulum by linking two -SH groups from adjacent cysteine side chains

114
Q

How do proteins show specificity?

A

The ligand for that protein needs to make many non covalent bonds simultaneously in order for the ligand to be held to its specific protein and this is only possible when the contours of the ligand’s surface match that of the proteins

126
Q

What is a plasma membrane and what is its function?

A

A protein-studded, fatty film where the molecules of living cells are held; prevent the contents of the cell from escaping

127
Q

Why is a lipid bilayer formed?

A

Hydrophobic molecules force adjacent water molecules to reorganize into a cavelike structure that is more highly ordered so it requires more free energy and when the hydrophobic molecules cluster together the energy cost is minimized due to limited contact with the surrounding water molecules

128
Q

How is a bilayer self-sealing?

A

Any tear in the sheet will create an exposure to water which is energetically unfavorable so the bilayer will spontaneously rearrange to eliminate the free edge

129
Q

How does an amphipathic sheet like the lipid bilayer avoid having free edges?

A

By forming a boundary around a closed space

130
Q

What are the properties of the bilayer?

A

It’s two-dimensional (it prevents membrane lipids from escaping but the molecules can move about in the plane of the bilayer) and it’s flexible

131
Q

What does the fluidity of the bilayer depend on?

A

Phospholipid composition and the hydrocarbon tails; closer and more regular packing of tail entails less fluidity

132
Q

What does packing of the tails depend on?

A

Length and number of double bonds; the shorter and more double bonds present the more fluidity

133
Q

How can fluidity be controlled in animal cells?

A

By cholesterol because the molecules fill the spaces between phospholipid tails that are left by kinks making it less fluid and less permeable

134
Q

Why is membrane fluidity important?

A

Enables many membrane proteins to diffuse rapidly and to interact with one another, permits membrane lipids and proteins to diffuse from sites where they’re inserted into the bilayer after synthesis to other parts of the cell, ensures membrane molecules are distributed evenly when cells divide, and allows membranes to fuse and mix their molecules

135
Q

Where are phospholipids made and how do they get to where they need to be?

A

They’re made by enzymes bound to the cytosolic surface of the ER that use free fatty acids as substrates and deposit the new phospholipids to the cytosolic half of the bilayer where scramblases will remove randomly selected phospholipids from one half to the other half of the bilayer

136
Q

How does asymmetry arise in cell membranes?

A

The Golgi apparatus membrane contains flippases that remove specific phospholipids from the side of the bilayer facing the exterior space and flips them into the monolayer that faces the cytosol

137
Q

What are the functions of membrane proteins?

A

Transporters, anchors, receptors, and enzymes

138
Q

What are the types of associations of proteins with the bilayer?

A

Transmembrane that extend to either side of the membrane, monolayer located almost entirely in the cytosol by an alpha helix, lipid-linked that are entirely outside the bilayer attached to the membrane by one or more covalently attached lipid groups, and protein attached where they aren’t bound directly but are held in place by their interactions with other membrane proteins

139
Q

What are integral membrane proteins?

A

Proteins directly attached to the bilayer that can only be removed by detergent interactions

140
Q

What are peripheral membrane proteins?

A

Proteins not directly attached that can be removed by gentler extraction that leaves the membrane intact

141
Q

What are single-pass transmembrane proteins?

A

Polypeptide chains that crosses the membrane once in an alpha helix that are receptors for extracellular signals

142
Q

What are multipass transmembrane proteins?

A

Polypeptide chains that cross the membrane more than once as alpha helices that function more as channels

143
Q

What are detergents?

A

Small, amphipathic, lipid-like molecules that have a hydrophilic head and a single hydrophobic tail that makes them aggregate into small clusters called micelles and when mixed with membranes the hydrophobic ends tend to interact with the membrane-spanning hydrophobic regions of the transmembrane proteins and the hydrophobic tails of phospholipids

144
Q

The most abundant class of lipids in cell membranes are

A

Phospholipids

145
Q

What is true of membrane phospholipids?

A

They are amphipathic. They can contain both saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. They have two fatty acids attached to a glycerol molecule, and a polar head group with an attached phosphate.

146
Q

What characteristics generally are correlated with an increase in the fluidity of a lipid bilayer?

A

Fewer van der waals interactions among the lipids,

a decrease in the amount of cholesterol, and an increase in the percentage of unsaturated fatty acids

147
Q

What statements regarding lipid membranes is/are TRUE?

A

Membrane lipids diffuse within the plane of the membrane and phospholipids will spontaneously form cell membrane-like lipid bilayers in a sphere in polar solvents.

148
Q

What statement about cell membranes is TRUE?

A

The composition of lipids on the extracellular side of the lipid bilayer is typically different than that found on the intracellular side (the lipid distribution is asymmetric).

149
Q

What describes a common property of detergents that can be used experimentally to solubilize phospholipids?

A

They are amphipathic

150
Q

What are ways that proteins are associated with membranes?

A

Transmembrane protein through membrane as a β barrel,

covalently attached to lipids in membrane, bound to a transmembrane protein, and completely cross membrane as α helix
