lecture 11
carbon metabolism
builds up structures from monomers by dehydration synthesis and reduction; requires energy
anabolism
breaks down polymers to form monomers by dyrdolyssis and oxidation to yield energy
catabolism
remaining electrons from a compound
oxidation
adding electrons to a compound
reduction
necessary to perform oxidation and reduction
enzyme
shaped to fit substrate perfectly
active site
when substrate binds, the enzyme is induced to fold around substrate
induced fit
substance that structurally resemble a specific substrate and block its interaction with an enzyme is ____ ____
competitive inhibitor
_____ ____ is the term that interacts with the allosteric site to change shape of enzyme to not allow the substrate to bind
noncompetitive inhibitor
___ _____involves taking glucose and breaking it down through glycolysis then taking that product into the Kreb�s cycle
central catabolism
process that oxidizes glucose to produce ATP, pyruvate, and NADH; 2 ATP spent, 4 ATP made; end product is pyruvate
glycolysis
pyruvate loses a molecule of CO2 and becaome Acetyl-Coa to enter the krebs cycle
oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate
oxidizes acetyl coa to produce CO2, ATP, and NADH and FADH
TCA cycle
process of reducing organic election acceptors like pyruvate
fermentation
Produces NADPH and 5 carbon structures. alternate pathway from glycolysis and is anabolic requiring energy
pentose phosphate pathway
isomerase enzymes that catalyze inversion of stereochemistry
epimerases
enzyme that catalyzes structural rearrangement of isomers
isomerases
___ oxidation oxidizes fatty acids to form acetyl coa
beta
the process called___ breaks down amino group from amino acids
deanimation
