(110 cards)
1
Q
What kind of interaction is H-bond?
A
electrostatic interaction b/w electroneg O and electropos H –> an attraction, not a real bond –> NOT a covalent bond b/c they’re not sharing e-
2
Q
Relationship b/w entropy and polar solutes vs nonpolar solutes dissolving in water
A
entropy = favorable and releasing energy during solvation = good vs entropy = unfavorable but energetically more favorable to associate as 1 large unit than individually solvated
3
Q
What are amphipathic molec and examples?
A
molec w/ polar and nonpolar groups. ex: fatty acids
4
Q
Hydrophobic Effect
A
hydrophobic substances and water will separate to minimize interactions. nonpolar hydrophobic part face inward away from water, polar hydrophilic part face outward towards water –> most energetically favorable. this is how you get protein folding, phospholipid bilayer, DNA double helix
5
Q
How to find equil constant/Keq? What are the trends of Keq?
A
Keq = ([C]^c * [D]^d)/([A]^a * [B]^b). EXPONENTS ARE FROM COEFF
[prod]/[react]. Keq < 1 or large neg exponent –> favors reactants, Keq = 1 –> equil, Keq > 1 or large pos exponent –> favors products
6
Q
How to calculate pH vs pOH?
A
-log[H+] = 1/log[H+] vs -log[OH-] = 1/[OH-]
7
Q
pH > pKa meaning
A
pH < pKa –> exist in protonated form, acid > conj base
pH > pKa –> exist in deprotonated form, base > conj acid
8
Q
What is a buffer? Why does H3PO4 make a good buffer?
A
slns that resist changes in pH as acid and base are added (try to keep pH constant); most buffers consist of weak acid & its conjugate base. b/c it has 3 H to get rid off –> their pKas = across the entire pH scale
9
Q
strong vs weak acid. strong vs weak base
A
acids donate H+. 100% dissociates, irreversible, HA -> H+ + A- vs partially dissociates, reversible (dissociates & reassociates), HA <-> H+ + A-. base accepts H+. will combine w/ free H+, H+ + B -> BH+ vs reversible (dissociates & reassociates), B + H+ <-> BH+
10
Q
How to find Ka of weak acid? What are the trends of Ka?
A
Ka = [H+][A-]/[HA]. Ka>1 –> favors [H+][A-] (prod), Ka<1 –> favors [HA] (react)
11
Q
Know the Hendersen-Hasselbach eqn. What is this used for?
A
pH = pKa + log[A-]/[HA]; pKa = CONSTANT. buffer slns
12
Q
Half-equivalence point
A
midpoint of buffering region in which half of titrant has been de/protonated thus [HA] = [A-]; pH = pKa
13
Q
acidemia vs alkalemia. what’s body’s physiological pH?
A
blood pH < 7.35 vs blood pH > 7.35. 7.35-7.45
14
Q
bicarbonate buffer system
A
CO2(g) <-> CO2(d) + H20 via carbonic anhydrase <-> H2CO3 <-> H+ + HCO3-
1st and 3rd steps = spontaneous. pKa carbonic acid = 6 –> pH > pKa –> likely to stay as H+ + HCO3-
15
Q
hyperventilation vs hypoventilation (bicarbonate buffer system)
A
if you’re hyperventilating –> expelling too much CO2 –> system moves left –> blood [H+] drops –> pH dec => respiratory alkalosis vs if you’re hypoventilating –> not expelling CO2 –> system moves right –> blood [H+] inc –> pH dec –> respiratory acidosis
16
Q

21
Q
fat vs carbs vs protein
A
located in adipose tissue (triglyceride - glycerol backbone + 3 fatty acids (fatty acids can be sat, monounsat, or polyunsat)), efficient fuel storage (9 kcal/g), more [H] & yield more energy when [O], aids in absorption of fat-soluble vit and carotenoid vs CHO, 4 kcal/g, glycogen in liver and muscle vs made of 9 essential aa and 11 nonessential aa, 4 kcal/g, not a primary fuel source, excess protein –> stored as fat; free aa pool = used in 3 ways: make new proteins, precursors for synthesis of nitrogen-containing cmpds (RNA, DNA, Heme), can be [O] for energy
22
Q
how to distinguish scientific evidence from marketing strategies
A
ask 7 questions: how does study fit into entire body of evidence on topic? is the story reporting results of one story? how large is the study? was study done on animals or humans? did study look at real dz endpoints like heart dz or osteoporosis? how was diet assessed? what type of study was it? (best if it was randomized clinical trials of dietary interventions on hard endpoints)
23

both groups = same side vs both groups = opposite sides (A down, B up); dehydration
29
Which C's in glucose bond to go from linear to ring? Why?
C5 (nuc) attacks w/ carbonyl C (electrophile) --> Carbonyl O bonds w/ H => OH group: if down => alpha, if up => beta
C5 is better because it’s thermodynamically stable. Using C4 hydroxyl would result in 5 members ring (not 6) —> less stable
30
glycosidic bonds vs N-glycosidic bonds vs O-glycosidic bonds
-OH group of anomeric C of monosacch reacts w/ -OH or -NH group of another cmpd vs found in nucleosides/tides vs join sugars to e/o or join sugar to -OH group of aa

37
sphingosine vs ceramide vs cerebroside vs ganglioside vs sphingomyelin
NO glycerol backbone --> sphingosine background (palmitate + serine; palmitate w/ amino and alc group) vs sphingosine structure but amino group is amide (thank to a fatty acid binding w/ amino group) vs 1 sugar bound to alc group vs mult sugars bound to alc group vs phosphate + N group bound to alc group

49
what are the 4 weak forces? how do they relate to biomolec recognition and interaction?
van der Waals (weak inter-atomic attractions, depends on distance, can be electrostatic), ionic bonds (attraction b/w oppositely charged polar groups like cations and anions, salt bridge), H bonds (electrostatic dipolar interactions b/w delta pos and delta neg), hydrophobic interactions (tendency for polar molec to exclude nonpolar molec, entropy driven process, not electrostatic). ALL THESE WEAK FORCES DETERMINE PROTEIN FOLDING, MAINLY H BONDS
like dissolves like, polar seeks polar, hydrophobic seeks hydrophobic, lock and key example; weak forces restrict organisms to narrow range of environ conditions: temp, pH, ionic strength, solvent medium
50
Name and describe proteins' 4 levels of structure
Primary: aa seq (determined by DNA seq) stabilized by covalent peptide bonds; secondary: a helix or beta sheets stabilized by noncovalent interactions (ie. H bonds, ionic bonds, vdw interactions, hydrophobic interactions) B/W THE BACKBONE (ie. R GROUPS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH SECONDARY STRUCTURE); tertiary: 3D structure to show hydrophobicity/phillicity; nonrandom, ordered pathway facilitated by molec chaperone; final folded structure; quaternary: multiple subunits that can function independently or cooperatively
51
3 classifications of proteins
globular - look like irreg balls, soluble in aq medium, fibrous - look like linear fibers, have a repeating unit structure, transmembrane - proteins that have 1+ regions aligned to cross lipid membrane
52
Parallel vs antiparallel beta sheets
sheets running in same direction vs alternating directions; H bonds = perpendicular to polypeptide backbone; -R groups alternate b/w above and below plane for both
53
super secondary structure vs domain vs motif
individual helices & sheets come together to form larger structures on the way towards tert structure vs part of the whole but doesn't carry function by itself (analogy: head of body, arm of body) vs super secondary and domain structure rpted in related proteins that have similar function
54
Which type of bonds help determine tert and quat structure?
H bonds, vdw interactions, hydrophobic interactions, ionic bonds, and disulfide bonds for tert structure; disulfide bonds create loops (ex: curly hair) AND ARE THE ONLY COVALENT BONDS
55
At which structure does denaturation occur?
Tert —> protein loses its function. High conc of salts and detergents can denature, heat can denature. Sometimes it can affect sec and quat structures but NEVER primary —> can’t break peptide bonds
56
Know that proteins go thru post-translational mods
enzyme-catalyzed rxns that add a chemical group, oxidize, or modify aa: glycosylations, fatty acylation/prenylation, reg modifications, [O] aa
57
Hemeproteins
proteins that contain heme (a tightly bound prosthetic group composed of protoporphyrin IX & Fe2+); heme reversibly binds to O2 in myo/hemoglobin
58
structure and function of myo vs hemoglobin
in heart and skel muscle, O2 reservoir w/in muscle cells, complex made of 8 alpha helices, nonpolar = interior by hydrophobic interactions and polar = on surface by H bonds w/ H2O, heme sits in b/w nonpolar groups (proximal his binds to Fe2+ of heme and distal his stabilizes the 1 O2 bound to Fe2+) vs in RBCs, transport O2 from lungs to capillaries in tissue and return CO2 and H+ from tissues to lungs, quat structure: 2 alpha helices & 2 beta sheets by noncovalent interactions
59
Examples of allosteric effectors. what happens if high pH in lungs and low pH in tissues?
pO2, pH of environ, pCO2 (high pCO2 --> release O2), 2,3-BPG (dec O2 affinity of hgb by binding ONLY to deoxy hgb --> can't take O2). binding of O2 to monomeric myo = not influnced by allosteric effectors. load O2 in lungs and unload O2 in tissues
60
Myoglobin vs hemoglobin. Know the O2 binding curves
Stores oxygen, like enzyme saturation curve (hyperbolic) --> high affinity for O2 at low partial pressure [O2} than hgb; not affected by inhibitors/modulators vs transports oxygen, sigmoidal, tense state - deoxy form of hgb, rigid, hard to bind O2 & relaxed state - easy to bind to O2 —> pos cooperativity; pO2 = x axis, sat O2 = y axis
61
Know high affinity vs low affinity on graph. What happens when you dec pH?
towards left top vs towards right bottom. Lower pH --> more p+ --> more oxygen released --> lower affinity for oxygen
62
Competitive vs uncompetitive vs noncomp vs mixed inhibitors. Know what they look like graphically (ie. LINEWEAVER BURK PLOTS AND MM PLOTS)
competes w/ S, inc Km, (inc S does overcome inhibitor) vs binds to allosteric site of ES, dec Vmax and Km (inc S doesn't overcome inhibitor) vs either binds to allosteric site of E or ES, dec Vmax, (inc S doesn't overcome inhibitor) vs either binds to allosteric site of E or ES, inc/dec Km and dec Vmax
63
Know the enzyme saturation graph. Know what comp and noncomp inhibition looks like on nml graph
x axis = [S], y axis = rxn rate
| Noncomp is lower but same shape, comp has LESS steeper slope but same Vmax
64
Lyases vs ligases vs hydrolases vs transferases vs isomerases vs phosphorylase vs kinase vs oxidoreductase vs dehydratase vs protease
cleave w/o water or e- transfer vs linking molec together w/ water removed => condensation/dehydration vs cleaves w/ water (ex: phophatase - removes phosphate group w/ water) vs transfers functional group from one molec to another vs inter conversion of isomers (ex: D to L) vs add inorganic phosphate to another molec vs transfers phosphate group typically from ATP to another molec, also a transferase v add/remove 1 or more e- to/from substrate (ex: dehydrogenase) vs removes water vs breaks peptide bond (dehydration rxn)
65
What is irreversible inhibition? examples? vs non-covalent irreversible inhibitors? example?
When inhibitor covalently bonds w/ aa in active site —> destroys active site an enzyme permanently lost function —> need newly made enzymes to do the job; called mechanism-based inhibitor b/c they depen on nml rxn cycle for action, also can be called "suicide inhibitors" b/c enzyme does catalysis that leads to its own destruction. Acetylcholine (Ach) = neurotransmitter for synaptic transmission that's degraded by acetylcholinesterase to terminate transmission signal; organophosphate inhibitors (nerve gas, pesticides) bind covalently to acetylcholinesterase --> destroyed. cyclooxygenase = enzyme produces prostaglandin H for pain response; ASA acetylates active site ser in cyclooxygenase --> prevents formation of prostaglandin H --> no pain (side note: acetaminophen and ibuprofen have similar structures to ASA but no acetyl group => reversible competitive inhibitors) vs inhibitors closely resembles TS --> inhibitor bind w/ such affinity that it will never dissoc from enzyme --> enzyme permanently inhibited. HIV inhibitor drugs have structure resembling TS of HIV protease = asp protease --> don't dissoc --> no HIV proteins
66
What are allosteric enzymes? Allosteric activator vs allosteric inhibitor?
Enzymes with active site + multiple allosteric sites. Causes shift in more available active site vs causes shift in less available active site; both of these = allosteric regulation
67
As hemoglobin unloads oxygen, what happens to affinity of remaining oxygen?
Lowers affinity
68
Enzymes stabilizes transition state —> lowers activation energy —> faster rxn rate. Once in transition state, rxn can go where?
Enzymes can affect kinetics (rate of chemical rxn) BUT NOT THERMODYNAMICS (ie. They don’t affect deltaG); A single enzyme doesn’t catalyze a variety of rxns cuz they’re usually highly specific. rxn can return to substrate or move forward to products --> more likely to go prod if more energetically favorable
69
T/F: most enzyme-catalyzed rxns = fully reversible
T
70
binding energy vs proximity vs induced fit vs orientation
binding of S to E's active site provides binding energy --> S = closer to TS --> lowers Ea --> inc rxn rate vs binding substrates inc conc w/in active site --> inc rxn rate vs binding of S induce changes in tert structure of E => conformational change --> distort S to TS vs geometry of S binding active site allows reacting molec to be in perfect orientation for rx --> inc rxn rate
71
serine protease vs chymotrypsin vs trypsin vs elastase
hydrolyze specific peptide bonds in proteins, mainly for digestion: made in pancreas as pro-enzymes or zymogens => inactive (they get activated when released from pancreas) vs hydrophobic binding pocket that favors aromatic residues and large nonpolar residues, Ser-OH = proximity w/ target peptide bond --> his activates ser to make nuc attack on peptide carbonyl bond --> TS --> target peptide bond cleaved but part of S = still stuck to E --> hydrolysis: E reacts w/ water (nuc) --> water attacks carbonyl C --> TS --> 2nd peptide fragment of S = released and ser = free vs deep binding pocket w/ neg charged residue (glu) at bottom that favor binding of lys and arg vs small binding pocket that favor binding of ala or gly residues
72
Know the Michaelis Menton eqn and plot!!!
eqn: know it by heart and how to determine v after changing variables. plot: [S] = x-axis, rxn vel = y-axis, Km = [S] at half Vmax
73
why regulate enzymes? how?
inc/dec enzyme activity to change rate of prod formation. alter [E] or alter E activity by non/covalent modulations
74
noncovalent reversible binding: pos vs neg modulator
allosteric modulators change affinity of E for S but doesn't change Vmax. inc affinity of E for S --> inc rxn rate at given [S], "allosteric activator" vs dec affinity of E for S --> dec rxn rate at given [S], "allosteric inhibitor"
75
covalent reversible binding: kinase vs phosphatase
add phosphate from ATP to -OH group of S (ser, thr, tyr); phosphorylating can in/activate E (ex: glycogen phosphorylase: inactive when dephosphorylated --> when phosphorylated --> active and inc glu/dec glycogen, glycogen synthase: inactive when phosphorylated --> when dephosphorylated --> active and inc glycogen/dec glu vs removes phosphate from S by hydrolysis
76
glycogen phosphorylase
example of allosteric modulation and reversible covalent modification; breaks gly to make G1P for glycolysis; has T and R forms; activated by AMP binding (pos allosteric noncovalent modulator) and phosphorylation (allosterically activates the E)
77
regulation by protein-protein interaction and examples
proteins interact w/ weak interactions --> stimulate conformational change --> stimulate functional change. protein kinase A, calmodulin, G proteins
78
covalent irreversible modification and examples
some E/proteins = made in precursor inactive forms --> proteases remove parts of precursor --> protein refolds --> E/proteins = activated (ex: proinsulin becoming insulin, chymotrypsinogen becoming chymotrypsin, Achase + organophosphate, cyclooxygenase + ASA
79
regulation using isozymes and example
