Q

What is the activator for pepsinogen?

How is it activated?

A

Low pH (2) of stomach acid

Spontaneously–autocatalytic

Acidic amino acids are pronated, salt bridges become broken–conformational change

Q

How is chymotrypsinogen activated?

A

Trypsin cleaves a peptide bond, yielding pi-chymotrypsin, which further autocleaves itself to eventually form alpha-chymotrypsin which is held together by 2 di-sulfide bonds

Q

What is the cause of emphysema?

Who is at greatest risk?

A

Genetic change in alpha1AP protein, which reduces secretion. Elastase destroys tissues.

Homozygotes, or heterozygotes who smoke them marlboro reds all day, every day

26
Q

What does Fibrinogen contain many of?

What is the result?

A

Negatively charged AA

Increased repulsion and solubility

27
Q

What does Thrombin activation of Fibrinogen accomplish?

A

Peptide removal, lowering negative charge driving aggregation

28
