Q

function of serine protease

A

to digest food: trypsin, chymotrtpsin
coagulate blood: thrombim and brkdown blood clot )plasmoin)
form a catalytic triiad vinvolveing HIS 57, Ser, Asp

Q

what happens in SERINE PROTEASE hydrolysis?

A

His accepts a proton from Ser. forms a transient cov bond to the substrate protein
cleaves its N-C bond in half

Q

describes Enzymes

can be __ or __:
fidelity:

A

perform nearly all chemical transformation

ACCELERATE =/ dissapear

mostly proteins
- can be specific or not: recognize 1 or thousands molec
fidelity: almost never fail
in mild condition: 37C or neutral pH

Q

how does it work?

has a cleaaget: __ ___

A

E has a small active site (5%) where rxn happens
S binds to E @ active site -> ES complex -> catalysis -> form EP complex -> release -> regenerate

Has a cleft where S binds: multiple weak bonds, binding is reversible
iN ES, cleavage brks bond in half

A

study of rate of rxn as influenced by c of S, inhibitor and E’s affinity for S

Q

describe the enzyme kinetic graph

A

S starts @ high concentration
as S binds to E tp make ES complex, both >
=> ES increase until it achieves an unchanging steady state
> enzyme kinetic is determine @ that steady state

Q

describe v0 and S plot

A

v- is rate of txn
Km is determined at half of V max

as S <. v0 also increase until it ahieves vmax

Q

what is zymogen function? e.g

A

serine protease is initially created as zympgen = an inactive enzyme
in this case trypsinogen
to have a storage of zymogen activ if needed and not harm as E

Q

compounds tht resemble the transition state bt doesnt undergo the rxn (similar geometry, charge distri)

A

transition state analogue

are excellent competiive inhibitors bcs they ind tightly, block active sight
tamiflu is a neuraminidase inhibitor that prevent flu virus from releaseing itself from host

Q

cofactor need apoenzyems. T OR F

A

F. apoenzymes need cofactors. can be essential or elevate the rate of exn.

Q

what is the Michaelis-Menten equation

A

v (initial) = v max x [S] / Km + [S]\
starts with low c of S. as you < color gets bluuer and V <

Q

what is the Michaelis constant

A

Km
- reflects E’s affinity for S
- independent of E concentration

Q

describe double reciprocal of M-M

A

double reciprocal of M-M is Lineweaver -Burke plot
- Km reciprocal and V max reciprocal intersect at y axis ; straihgt line

17
Q

2 types of inhibiotr

A

reverssible: binding of inhibitor to E is non cov; inhibitior can be removed
irreversible: cov; blocks active site

reversible inhibitor is competiitive one
