Monomer and Polymer of Sugars? M: Monosaccharide P: Starch
Monomer and Polymer of Lipids? M: Fatty acid P: Triglyceride
3 Ways to increase reaction rate 1. Increase temp – decreased stability 2. Increase reactant concentration 3. Lower activation energy needed - Enzymes
Endergonic reaction? Requires energy
Exergonic reaction? Releases energy
What is a central dogma? An explanation of the flow of genetic information within a biological system
What is a covalent bond? Electron sharing
What is an ionic bond? Electrons of one atom are transferred permanently to another atom - Salt bridges
pH and pOH equation is? pH + pOH = 14
Equation for determining pH pH = - log10 [H+]
What is a buffer? A substance that allows a solution that remain at a constant pH
4 Functions of proteins and the products used to carry out their function 1. Catalyse - DNA polymerase 2. Transport - hemoglobin 3. Structure - Collegen & keratin 4. Movement - Actin & myosin
How does the ionisation of amino acids change? By changing the pH
Amino acids at a low pH exist as? Cations (+ive charge)
Amino acids at a high pH exist as? Anions (-ive charge)
Cations are either a. Pronated or b. de-pronated Pronated - at carboxyl and amine groups
What is a Conjugated Protein? A protein that functions in interaction with other (non-polypeptide) chemical groups
List 3 examples of a Conjugated Protein Lipoproteins (lipid), Glycoproteins (carbs), Phosphoproteins (phosphate) or Hemoprotein (hemoglobin)
What is a Hydrogen bond? Interaction of N-H and C-O between the H and O.
What is Van der Waals forces? Weak attraction between atoms
Primary structure of proteins? Peptide bonds
What are peptide bonds? Amide bond that forms when the COO− group reacts with the NH3+ group of the next amino acid.
Name of peptide linking a. 2 amino acids b. 3 amino acids c. 4 amino acids a. dipeptides b. tripeptides c. tetrapeptides
When adding 2 amino acids together they are joined by a peptide bond. How do you create this bond using chemical symbols? Add amino acids together and replace 2 H and 1 O with a line.
How to name peptides Add ly to the ends of all amino acids except those in the C-terminus
what are the 2 secondary structure of proteins? 1. ? helix (alpha) 2. β pleated sheets (beta)
How are ? helix structures formed? Hint: types of bonds and numbers H-bonds between O2 of the C==O groups and the H of N—H groups of the amide bonds in the next turn of the α helix. Formed between molecule n and molecule n + 4
How are β pleated sheets formed? H-bonds between carbonyl O2 atoms and H atoms in the amide groups
What is a β turn? (in relation β pleated sheets) 180° turn When β sheets change direction
Tertiary structure of proteins. What are the 2 major classes? 1. Fibrous 2. Globular (water soluable)
What does the Tertiary structure of proteins consist of? Bonds between amino acid side chains.
Quaternary structure of proteins is? The assembly of individual polypeptides into a larger functional cluster
What is a Ligand? A molecule that binds to a protein
2 types of binding specificity 1. Lock and key model 2. induced fit model
Label the type of binding specificity and explain each a. Lock and key model: ligand and binding site complementary b. Induced fit model: Ligands binds and cause structural change to binding site
The rate of enzymatic reactions are affected by? (4) Types of Enzyme, substate, effector & temperature
Kinetic Parameters: What is Km and Vmax Km = concentration of substrate that permits the enzyme to achieve half Vmax. Vmax = rate of reaction when enzyme is saturated with substrate is the maximum rate of reaction
Name, function & formula of graph shown Name: Lineweaver-Burke plot Function: Used to calculate Vmax
Using this formula and and the Lineweaver-Burke plot identify what each colour represents Green – y axis Red – x axis Blue – x, y intercept Purple – Slope of line
What is an enzyme inhibitor? Compounds that decrease an enzyme’s activity
What is an Irreversible enzyme inhibitors (inactivators)? 1 inhibitor molecules can permanently shut off 1 enzyme molecule
What is a Reversible inhibitors? Substrate can bind and disassociate from enzyme. Structural similarity of substate and product
What is a competitive inhibitor? Competes with substrate for binding on active site
Competitive inhibitor: What does a1, a2 and a3 identify? a1 = no inhibitor (Km, substance concentration lowest) a2 = with inhibitor (Km higher) a3 = higher concentrated inhibitor
Uncompetitive inhibitor: What does a1, a1.5 and a2 identify? a1 = no inhibitor a1.5 = with inhibitor (higher concentration of substrate and rate of reaction when saturated) a2 = higher concentrated inhibitor
Identify what type of enzyme inhibitor this graph is showing Competitive inhibition
Identify what type of enzyme inhibitor this graph is showing Uncompetitive inhibition
