Protein soluble in water
albumin
What diff proteins from carb/lipid
nitrogen
conjugated protein
protein plus prosthetic grplipo, glyco/muco, nucleo
5 plasma proteins
albumin, alpha 1, alpha 2, beta, gamma
Primary protein structure
amino acids
Secondary protein structure
alpha helix, beta pleated sheets
Tertiary protein structure
3D
Quaternary protein structure
2+ polypeptide chains
Enzyme deficiency with decreased enzymes leading to buildup of ketoacids decreased branched-chain ketoacid dehydrogenase enzyme activity(LIV)
maple syrup disease
Aminoacidpathy caused by defiency in the enzyme to metabolize phenylalaninemousy urine
Phenylketonuria, PKU
Aminoacidopathy due to enzyme deficiency due to lack of enzyme to break down tyrosine/phenylalanine leading to buildup of homogentistic aciddeficiency of a single enzyme called homogentisate 1,2 dioxygenaseblack urine
Alkaptonuria
CystinuriaTyrosinemia
inherited metabolic,excessive amount of undissolved cysteine, doesn’t get reabsorbed by kidney, kidney stonesTyrosine/metabolites excreted in urine
Deficiency in enzyme needed to metabolize methionine Increased levels of this amino causes stroke, CVD, alzheimers, osteoporesis, nutrional def
Homocystinuriabuild up of methionine and homocysteine (metabolite of methionine)
4 causes of hypoproteinemia
Not getting/making enough:malnutritionliver disease(doesn’t make protein)Protein loss: burns(protein loss thru wound)nephrotic syndrome(loss thru urine)
3 Causes of hyperproteinemia
dehydrationMultiple myeloma, Waldenstroms
5 immunoglobulin
G,A,M,E,D
4 measurements of TPTP g/dL
BiuretDye bindingKjeldahlRefractometryTP 6.4-8.3 g/dL
TP g/dLalbumin g/dLmicroalbumin in urine mg/24hr
TP 6.4-8.3g/dLAlbumin 3.5-5 g/dL (about 60% of TP) rest is globulinsmicroalbumin 50-200 mg/24hr
Calculation of A/G ratio
Albumin/TP-albumin
Total protein method that reacts with >= 2 peptide bonds in proteins
Biuret
Biuret reaction for TP uses…which forms what color complex
copper salts which forms a purple color
4 dyes in dye binding for TP
Bromophenol Blue Coomassie brilliant bluePonceau SAmido black
Reference method for TP, not used often
Kjeldahl
TP method that measures nitrogen
