FIRST ASSESSMENT Flashcards
Coined BIOCHEMITRY
Carl Alexander Neuberg (1903)
- Discoveries regarding the respiration of animal
- 1789: he proposed CARBON (L. carbo “charcoal”) element
ANTOINE LAVOISER
- DISCOVERED THE HYDROGEN
- Produces Hydrogen gas while experimenting with iron and acid using his vacuum pump
ROBERT BOYLE 1671
- Oxygen
- Discovered that red hot manganese oxide produces a gas when it came contact with charcoal dust (FIRE GAS)
Carl Wilhelm Scheele (1772)
- NITROGEN
o Experiment: burning a candle placed where a mouse died without enough oxygen
Daniel Rutherford (1772)
- ATP (Inosinic acid originally)
o Considered as energy from by Fritz Albert Lipmann (1941)
KARL LOHMANN
metabolic
processes occur via a series of individual chemical reactions
‘intermediary (substrate/ product)
metabolism
always in the center of
atom (the nucleus)
PROTON AND NEUTRON
found whizzing around nucleus (area of orbital)
electron
breakdown of glucose (six-Carbon containing molecule) into 2 pyruvate molecules (3-Carbon containing molecule) through oxidation
GLYCOLYSIS
aerobic:
pyruvate
anaerobic
lactate
sensitive to pH and thus inhibited by the acidic environment of the stomach
AMYLASE
: targets ⍺1,4 bonds, and is unable to break terminal ⍺1,6 bonds (dextrin formation)
released from acinar cells into the SI under the stimulus of secretin and CCK and continues the process of CHO digestion
PANCREATIC AMYLASE
accumulation of limit dextrins (Cori disease/Limit dextrinosis)
ISOMALTOSE DEFICIENCY
- large lipid droplet into smaller (MICELLES)
- BILE SALTS and PHOSPHOLIPIDS
emulsification
FATTY ACID TO ACETYL - COA
Lipogenesis and beta-oxidation
