Topic 4- enzymes regulation Flashcards
Serpins
> Competitive irreversible inhibitors> protease
>AS > comformational change
List 3 Serine proteases
> Trypsin
Chromotrypisin
Elastase
What is Zymogen
> inactivated single polypeptide
Describe activation of Chromotrypsin
> Zymogen
>Trypsin activates——> chymotrypsin (2 poly)——–> Alpha chymotrypsin (3 poly)
Describe trypsin Activation
> Trypsinogen (zymogen)
>Enteropeptidase removes small peptide chains ——-> Trypsin
What does Antithrombin III do?
> Controls tight binding of thrombin to serine
>swithches off blood clotting sydtem
Give example of serpins
> Serine Proteases
what is the blood clotting cascade
> enzyme activation events
Intrinsic/ extrinsic pathways
collects soluble proteins>Fibrin clot formed
amplifies initial sequence
What initiates blood clotting cascade
> Blood Factors > serine protease
What happens if there is a deficiency in blood factors ?
> Clotting/ bleeding disorders
What factors are involved in enzyme control?
> Inhibition
Negative feedback
Phosphorylation
Proteolytic activation
What is endogenous enzyme Inhibition?
> Serine protease inhibitors
A1-antitrypsin
Pancreatic Trypsin
Antitthrombin III
A1-antitrypsin
> Prevents protease attacking tissue
Pancreatic Trypsin
> Regualtes digestive enzyme activity
What is negative feed back
> Controls balance
Stop signal when enough is made
Amplify signal> when more needs to be made
pathways > linked
Phosphorylation
> Covalent modification
P from ATP transferred to residue via Protein kinase
P removed from residue via protein phosphatase
P indufe charges> change shape > affect activity
Proteolyctic action
> Activate zymogen/ pro enzyme
irreversible clevage> amide
bonds
examples of proteolyctic action (2)
> Pancrease
>Blood clotting sydtem
What are enzymes?
Biological catalysts
specific
protein
How do enzymes work?
inc. rate eq reached
lowering AE
How do enzymes lower the AE
> Catalytic components
Bind and orientate
Binding and stabalises transitional states
AS properties
> Specific 3D shape
small part of protein
Crucial amino acids
What is Michaelis constant
> Affinity of enzyme for substrate
Equation for Michaelis constant
Km = (K2 + K1)/ K3
What is K1, K2 K3?
K1: Rate ES is formed
K2 + K3: Rate ES is dissociated
which is the rate determining constant
K3
What is the velocity?
Reaction rate
change in product over time
What is IU?
International enzyme units
