Step by step

- ATP is both an inhibitor and substrate of adenyl cyclase. As a substrate, the enzyme converts ATP to cyclic AMP only when the energy sources of cells are low. cAMP mediates the synthesis of a kinase that adds a phosphate to glycogen synthase and phosphorylase. The Km value of the active site is 3.5 x 10-5M while the Km for the allosteric site is 1.7 x 10-3M. What is the implication of the difference in Km value of the active and allosteric site in terms of the utilization of the stored sources of energy of cells? Explain.If intracellular [ATP] = 5 mM, [ADP] = 0.5 mM, and [Pi] = 1.0 mM, calculate the concentration of AMP at pH 7 and 25°C under the condition that the adenylate kinase reaction is at equilibrium.What would be the effect of a mutation that decreased the activity of phosphatidic acid phosphatase?
- Identify the type of regulation of enzyme activity seen in the following situations - for example, competitive inhibition, allosterism, phosphorylation, zymogen conversion, association-dissociation, feedback inhibition, etc. a. Trypinsogen, which is not catalytically active, is converted to the active enzyme trypsin by removal of a hexapeptide from the N-terminal end. b. The dimer protein kinases is catalytically inactive. Binding of cAMP causes protein kinase dimer to split into its monomer which are active catalysts.Explain the Phosphorylation of glycogen phosphorylase by phosphorylase kinase mechanism. What is happening in each step? what are activating nucleophiles and stabilizing intermediates?Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling Discuss the nature of the TNF ligand and the receptor for that ligand, and explain the general steps in the pathway (use figure 8.53 and explain in your own words). Make sure to include an explanation of the proteolytic and phosphorylation cascades. What advantage is there in having a cascade part of these pathways? What purpose does it serve?
- Write a mechanism (in detail) for phosphorylation of a serine residue by ATP catalyzed by protein kinase. What groups might you expect to find in the enzyme’s active site?How is cigarette smoking related to elastase function? Methionine sulfoxide is formed by cigarette smoke in the antitrypsin protein, which leads to the full manifestation of the disease in individuals heterozygous for emphysema. Oxidation of methionine 358 by cigarette smoke of the elastase inhibitor active site leads to an increased inhibition of elastase and subsequent overaccumulation of mucus in the lungs. The inhibitor of elastase is axidized by cigarette smoke so elastase doesn't function properly in healthy individuals. Cigarette smoke modifies the elastase methionine residues such that the enzyme activity is blocked.The enzyme mutase which is important for the synthetic of tyrosine and phenylalanine in saccharomyces cerevisiae has been studied as an example of an allosteric enzyme. Tyrosine acts as a negative effector for this enzyme. What effects would you see on the action of the enzyme were you to increase the concentration of tyrosine? The chorismate mutase would shift to its R conformation The curve showing the kinetics or chorismate mutase would shift to the right The curve showing the kinetics of chorismate mutase would shift to the left The chorismate mutase would become saturated more rapidly
- Intramitochondrial ATP concentrations are about 5 mM, and phosphate concentration is about 10 mM. If ADP is five times more abundant than AMP,calculate the molar concentrations of ADP and AMP at an energy charge of 0.85. Calculate ∆G for ATP hydrolysis at 37 °C under these conditions.The energy charge is the concentration of ATP plus half the concentration of ADP divided by the total adenine nucleotide concentration.The text states that ATP is synthesized primarily by energy metabolism, whereas other nucleoside triphosphates are formed from the action of nucleo- side diphosphate kinase. What additional pathway exists for GTP synthesis?Draw a mechanism using the general features of a serine protease to explain how inhibitor x might work using the following information: inhibitor x is a representative of a new family of serine protease inhibitors. treatment of chymotrypsin with inhibitor X rapidly decreased activity. to determine the mode of inhibition the researchers used dialysis to exchange the buffer with buffer lacking free inhibitor x. after dialysis, the enzyme did NOT recover any activity.
