Term
-Δ H
+Δ S
Definition
-Δ G, spontaneous at all temps
Term
+Δ H
-Δ S
Definition
+Δ G, non-spontaneous at all temps
Term
-H
-S
Definition
spont. at low temps
Term
+Δ H
+Δ S
Definition
spont. at high temps
Term
if delta G is negative what does it tell you about energy and speed of rxn
Definition
exothermic
cannot tell anything about how fast rxn is,
Term
-Δ G, then Keq
favors
Definition
+Keq
products
Term
+Δ G, then Keq
favors
Definition
-Keq
reactants
Term
G=0, then Keq
favors
Definition
Keq=1
equilib
Term
Eqn for Gibbs free energy
Definition
ΔG= ΔH-T ΔS
Term
Gibs energy eqn std in a cell where molarities arent 1
Definition
Δ G*=-RTlnKeq
Term
catalyst
Definition
lowers Ea in both directions by stabilizing Transition state
Term
what does catalyst do to equilibrium
Definition
does not shift/mess with it
Term
higher Km means -- substrate
Definition
lower affinity for S
Term
Km=
Definition
1/2 vMax
Term
competitive inhibition
Definition
inhibitor binds to active site
Term
competitive inhibition effect on Km and Vmax
Definition
increases Km
doesn't change Vmax
Term
Non-competitive inhibition
Definition
inhibitor binds not at active site
Term
non- competitive inhibition effect on Km and Vmax
Definition
Km does not change
Vmax is lowered
Term
Cooperativity
Definition
binding of one substrate increases affinity for the next substrate to bind
Term
cooperativity has a -- curve
Definition
sigmoid
Term
Hb vs Mb
Definition
Hb has 4, where Mb (muscle) only has 1 subunit and therefore Mb does not have cooperativity
Term
Bohr effect-
Definition
prescence of H+ and CO2 decrease Hb affinity for O2 causing Hb to release O2 in the tissue. This shifts the sigmoid curve to the right
Term
Pressure of O2 is highest in
Definition
lungs, causing the high % saturation of Hb to pick it up and deliver to tissue where PO2 is lower to release it
Term
allosteric regulation
Definition
not active site, feedback inhibition
Term
phosphorylation
Definition
covalent modification by adding a phosphate it adds - charge
Term
AA with an OH group that can be phosphorylated
Definition
Ser, Thr, Tyr
Term
Kinases or phophorylations
Definition
add phosphate
kinase- ATP hydrolysis
Term
phosphatases
Definition
dephosphorylate enzymes, take phosphate off
Term
what does phosphorylation do to the enzyme
Definition
changes the confirmation, either activating it or deactivating it.
Term
Zymogens
Definition
inactive precursors that become active w/proteolytic cleavage
ex: digestive enzymes trypsin and chymotrypsin
Term
Cofactors
Definition
enzyme regulation with the use of metal ions or coenzymes
