Secondary Amino Acids
CystIne, hydroxyproline, hydroxylysine, phosphoserine, phosphothreonine, phosphotyrosine
Acid Dissociation Constant
Ka = (conj base) (H+) / (undissociated acid HA)
pH =
-log[H+]
pKa =
-logKa
pH = pKa..
+ log [conj base]/[undis acid]

( A-/HA )

prosthetic group
a tightly bound, non-polypeptide substance required for the biological activity of the protein
Apoprotein
a protein without its characteristic prosthetic group (globin w/o heme)
Holoprotein
A complete protein (with prosthetic group)
Allosteric interactions
interactions between spatially distinct sites that are transmitted by conformational changes in a protein (sometimes across subunits)
Allosteric effectors
interact with protein (at a site distinct from the substrate site) to induce conformational changes and affect binding of substrate
4 principal blood buffer systems
1. bicarbonate
2. hemeglobin
3. plasma proteins
4. phosphate

*all pka values near 7.4 EXCEPT bicarb.




High PCO2
- CO2 escape decreases
- Hypoventilation

**emphysema, oversedation, head trauma

- respiratory acidosis




Low pCO2 (below 40)
- CO2 escape increases
- hyperventilation

** hypoxia, nervousness/anxiety

- respiratory alkilosis




Low HCO3- (less than 24)
- accumulation of H+
** low HCO3-
- accumulation of H+ (loss of HCO3)

** diabetic ketoacidosis, lactic acidosis, diarrhea

- metabolic acidosis



High HCO3
- loss of H+, accumulation of HCO3

**vomitting (loss of acidic fluid), aldosteroidism (excess renal secretion of H, K, Cl)

- metabolic alkilosis



CORRECTION of acid-base abnormalities
Abnormal pH returned to normal by changing the component PRIMARILY affected
COMPENSATION of acid-base abnormalities
system not primarily affected is responsible for returning pH toward 7.4 but does NOT necessarily involve return of pCO2 or HCO3- to normal values!
Anion Gap
[Na+] + [K+] - [Cl-] - [HCO3-]
142 - 104 - 24 = 14 meq/L

Even if the pH is normal, if there are anions in excess, there is a metabolic disorder


Apoenzyme
A cofactor (loosely bound, unlike prosthetic groups) -requiring enzyme without its cofactor bound
Holoenzyme
an enzyme with its cofactor bound
Cofactors are
vitamins or derivatives of vitamins

compounds that are required for normal growth but are NOT synthesized by the huamn body

in direct participation in group transfer reactions

stabilizers of ES complex





Homotropic Effectors
+ effect: binding of S to active site of one subunit causes a conformational change in another subunit

- effect: binding of S to one site causes other sites to become lower affinity

Heterotropic effectors
+ effectors: binding at a separate site causes the active sites to have a higher affinity for substrate (R to L shift!)..higher velocity at any substrate concentration

- effectors: binding at separate site decreases the affinity for the first S binding (L to R shift.. lower velocity at any substrate concentration)

Isozymes
enzymes that catalyze the same chemical reaction but differ in their physicochemical and kinetic properties
After myocardial infarction.. the enzymes peak at different times...
CK (creatine kinase) first, then AST (aminotransferase), then LDH (lactate dehydrogenase)
Transferase
transfers a functional group from one compound to another compound

- a KINASE.. transfers PO4 groups

Hydrolase
breaks bonds by the addition of H20
Dehydrolase
Remove H2O from compound(s)
Isomerase
catlayzes the formation of isomers of a compound (configurational change)
Ligases
Makes bonds USING ENERGY (ATP)
2 classes of enzymes that can break bonds
hydrolases, and lysases
2 classes of enzymes that can make BIG molecules (make bonds)
transferases and ligases
Hemiacetal
formed by the reaction of an aldehyde + alcohol
hemiketal
formed by the reaction of a ketone + alcohol
blood group antigens

cell surface antigens

components of ECM; has more sugar, less protein



glycolipids

Chemical work
energy for macromolecule construction and heat
Transportation
moves ions and other materials across membranes
Mechanical work
it is the thing that makes your msucles move
isohydric transport
transport of C02 with minimal change in pH... it is augmented by the ability of RBC membranes to exchange HCO3- for Cl-

otherwise HCO3- would build up inside the RBC and would oppose more conversion of CO2 to HCO3-
