Q

demonstrate the role of kinase and phosphatase

A

amino acids’ HYDROXYL is phosphorylated w/ help of kinase = an enzyme tht catalyze the transfer or PO4 to that molec
reversts back using phosphatase = catalyzes hydrolysis

Q

what is myoglobin? heme? histidien?

A

myoglobin consists of 8 a-helices and 1 heme prosthetic group
is O-binding protein; O is the ligand

Heme: 4 N coordination stabilizes the Fe in the centre
This binds to Histidine: O interacts with Fe; His E7 comes clower to O to stabilize

Q

ligand binding as described by…

A

Kd

PL <-> P + L Kd = PXL/PL

lower Kd, high affinity tight bonding

Q

when Kd = P02
when K = P50

A

half of the bonding iste is occupied
myoglobin’s partial P is half sat
p05 is 2.9 torr
after that, increase rapidly

Q

Bohr effect:

carbonic acid dissociates into ___ acid and ___
__ binds to ___

in acidic enviro, promotes a bond btw __ & ___ (salt bride) and stable T state
since __ < ___, becomes ___: Hemo release o2 into circulatory system -> lungs

A

carbon dioxide diffuses in
-> meets H20 and carbonic anhydrase
-> creates carbonic acid

=> in CO2, ___ pH ___ affinity
histidine & B-subunit
pK 6 > pH / deprotonated

16
Q

from T to R state

A

low ot high affinty
deoxy to oxy

a conform change occur: bind at a- & B- glohin and is oxygenated
in T state, HisF8 is proportional to Heme; in R state, becomes clower and stabilize

17
Q

role of bisphosphoglycerate BPG

A

stabilize T state; w/o it, Hemo bidns to O2 too tightly can’t realease it in tissue
in high altitudes, RBC creates more BPG
create a less steeep graph

18
Q

how harmful can Hb variants be?

A

Hb variatns causing disease

Boston, Milwauke, and Iwate: promotes methomoglobin formation
Yakima: disrupt H bond that stabilize T state

19
Q

doesnt bind to O2 well
mutation ___ in __ chains -> 2 fewer negative charges
REPLACE w/ ___ creates ___ interactions
Hb aggreates __< becomes ___

A

Sickle cell
Ê6V / B
valine hydrophobic
form / sickle-shaped

20
Q

use of OHPro

A

stabilize 3x helix via H bonds and promtoes conform of 3 a-chains
allow thermal stability at 37c

21
Q

describe collagefn 3x

A

made of 3 intertwined poly-Pro type II chains
every 3rd if Gly or kink
Gly’s side chain is amll enough tb the centre

22
Q

poly-proline type II helix vs a-helix

more extended
no intra-chain __ bonds of ___ & __ IS WIDE ENOUGH
STABILIZED BY s___ ____ of Pro;s side chains
___ residues per rurn

A

H /amide / O
steric repulsion
3

23
Q

describe collagen formation:

is synthesized as ——-
polypop catalyzed that 3 strands into __-____ ______
is dumped into extracellular by _______
collagen fibrils aggregate to form collage ___

A

pro-collagen polypep
pro-collagen molec
pro-peptidase
fibers

24
Q

___’s chain will itneract with Lys’s NH3_
-> INVOLVED IN CROSS LINKING, CREATE COV BOND
-> stabilize collagen fibrils

25
lysine? OhLys? forming
lys is involved in cross linking and creates cov bond Lys -> allysine OHLys -> OHallysine catalyzed by lysineoxidase OHlys: served as a site for sugar addition; catalyzed by Lys Hydroxylase
26
collagen mutation with ascorbic acid
Hydroxylation requires ascorbic avid no vit C, no collagen fibril formation => scurvy: bleeding gum, loose teeth and unhealing woubds
27
collagen mutation with Cu
Lysxyloxidase requires Cu no Cu, no ross link formation Ehlers Danlos syndrome; grp of connected tissue disorder LOOSE skin, hypermobile joints
28
collagen mutation with defect of type I collagen genes hint: OI / mineral and bone
creates Osteogenesis Imperfecta no Glyc in 3x helix: collagen fibril doesnt pack normally poor collagen mineralization boNE FRAgility: reduced lifespan, short stature
29
histone
protein tht package DNA contains mostly Arg lys
30
WHAT IS A HISTONE OCTOMER
consist of 2each of HIS 2A 2B 3 4 has a tail that extend beyond the histone_ hange DNA to RNA polym
31
what is nucleosome core particle
146 bp that wraps aroiund the histone octomer as 1st step of DNA packaging
32
EPIGENETICS
study of how your behaviour and enviro affect DNA is reverssible and doesnt change the DNA sequence-- change how your body reads DNA sequence
