Q

What is the second reaction in AAT?

A

AKG binds after S1 release forming new schif base with amino group transfer to the AKG with second product formation

17
Q

How does S2 2relate in a LWP?

A

Increasing S2 decreases slope in a sequential displacement reaction where apparent Vmax increases and Km decreases

18
Q

Chymotrypsin

A

This is a serine protease produced by the pancrease hydrolysing the peptide bonds of tryptophan, leucine, tyrosine and phenylalanine

19
Q

What is the mechanistic basis of Chymotyrpsin?

A

Cleaves peptide bonds selectively on CTD of large hydrophobic amino acid

20
Q

How is Chymotrypsin a DDR?

A

First displacement is nucleophilic attack from hydroxyl of serine forming intermediary with peptide bond cleavage/fragment formation
Abstration of a base of an active site serine residue

21
Q

How can catalytic residues be identified?

A

Irreversible inhibitors covalently binding to the enzyme

22
Q

What are the three types of irreversible inhibitor?

A

Group-specific Reagents
Affinity Labels
Suicide Inhibitors

23
Q

Group-Specific Reagents

A

These are enzyme inhibitors that can covalently bind to a particular amino acid residue on the enzyme and irreversibly modify it

24
Q

Affinity Labels

A

This is a technique for labelling the binding site of proteins by virtue of a ligand analog to which a chemically reactive or photoreactive group has been attacehd

25
Suicide Inhibtors
These act by forming stable acyl-enzyme complexes, which fragment and deacylate very slowly
26
What is the catalytic triad of Chymotrypsin?
Ser195, His57, Asp102
27
What is the mechanism of the catalytic triad?
His57 polarisation of the OH group of the Ser195, this serine becoming hihgly reactive ion
28
How does Asp102 assist in the triad?
Positioning His57 and countering the positive charge
29
What enzymes is the catalytic triad found in?
Chymotrypsin Subtilisin Wheat CarboxyPeptidase
30
Wheat Carboxypeptidase II
This is a zinc metalloenzyme catalysing the hydrolysis of the neurotransmitted N-acetyl-L-aspartyl-L-glutamate to another residue
31
How can importance of active site residues be elucidated?
Site-directed MMutagenesis
32
Site-directed Mutagenesis
This is a technique where DNA can be modified at a specific nucleotide location causing a predetermined amino acid change
