Resumo de Recurso
Biology - Unit 2 - Key area 1
Part a
Metabolic pathways
Reversible and irreversible
Steps can be skipped
Only if there is an alternative route
Membrane compartments
Embedded in the phospholipid bilayer membrane
Can be pumps, pores or enzymes
Membrane compartments
Increases surface area
Increases the reaction rate
Key terms
Metabolism
Build up/breakdown of reactions in cells
controlled by enzymes
Anabolic pathways
Build up/synthesis reactions
Use up energy
glucose-1-phosphate ------> starch (GPS)
Amino acids ------> Proteins
Catabolic pathways
Breakdown/degradation reaction
Starch ---amylase---> Maltose (SAM)
Part B (Control of metabolic pathways)
Enzyme activity
Products
Low affinity with the active site
Substrate
Affinity for the active site
Induced fit (like a surgical glove)
Active site changes shape to perfect fit the molecule
Activation energy
Energy needed to start a chemical reaction
Enzymes lower the activation energy
Each step in a metabolic pathway is controlled by a specific enzyme
If an enzyme is missing (caused by a mutation) it will disrupt the pathway causing the reaction to stop
Inhibited
Slowed down/held back
Competitive inhibition
Inhibiter molecule has a similar shape to the substrate molecule
Inhibitor attaches to the substrate molecule to block it
Non competitive inhibition
The inhibitor attaches somewhere on the enzyme (not on the active site)
This changes the shape
Substrate no longer fits the active site
End product inhibition/feedback inhibition
End product of a reaction binds to the enzyme and inhibits its reaction
Substrate
Intermediate 1
Intermediate 2
Intermediate 3
Product
Enzyme 4
Enzyme 3
Enzyme 2
Enzyme 1
If the environment has enough of the product then the organism conserves energy
So the inhibitor attaches to an enzyme in the pathway to stop the product being produced
If the product isn't in the environment anymore the inhibitor will detach to let the process start again
