Enzymes August 16, 2011 10:00AM 1. General properties of enzymes -Enzymes are a class of proteins that increase the rate of a chemical reaction. - ecause enzymes control the rates of reactions, they are use! to regulate the acti"ity of the cell. -Enzymes ha"e a specific !istri#ution $ithin su#cellular compartments an! $ithin specific organs. %As proteins, enzymes are sensiti"e to changes in temperature an! p& an! re'uire a relati"ely sta#le en"ironment in or!er to function. %Enzymes are often (ept in the inacti"e state, $here it is calle! the zymogen or proenzyme. )his allo$s enzyme acti"ity to #e strictly regulate!. -Many proenzymes re'uire a short se'uence on the *-terminus to #e clea"e! in or!er to #ecome acti"e. +or e,ample, pepsinogen is translate! an! release! #y chief cells in the stomach. )rypsin then clea"es the *-terminus, con"erting the proenzyme to its acti"e form pepsin. 2. -nteraction of enzyme $ith su#strate -.u#strates #in! to a relati"ely small region of an enzyme calle! the active site. )he #oun! su#strate fits in a specific orientation an! is fitte! through ionic #on!s, hy!rogen #on!s, an! hy!ropho#ic interactions. -)he act of the su#strate #in!ing to the enzyme can cause a conformational change in the enzyme. )his is also calle! induced fit. /. Enzyme catalysis0 Michaelis-Menten e'uation -Enzymes ha"e no effect on the thermo!ynamic properties of a gi"en reaction an! therefore al$ays mo"e the chemical reaction to$ar!s e'uili#rium. -nstea!, enzymes lo$er the energy of acti"ation, an energy #arrier re'uire! in or!er for a reaction to procee!, an! there#y increase the spee! of a reaction.

-Enzymatic reactions can procee! in the for$ar! or #ac($ar! reactions !epen!ing on $here the chemical e'uili#rium lies. -1ar#onic anhy!rase !oes the re"erse an! for$ar! reaction !epen!ing on location in the #o!y. -)he Michaelis-Menten equation allo$s one to pre!ict the rate of reaction gi"en a specific amount of su#strate. %2uring catalysis, the enzyme remains unchange! after the reaction has ta(en place. -n many cases, the enzyme forms a co"alent interme!iate. &o$e"er, this co"alent #on! is not in"ol"e! in su#strate-enzyme #in!ing. 3. Enzyme inhi#ition -Competitive inhibitors !irectly compete $ith the su#strate to #in! at the acti"e site. -A competiti"e inhi#itor $ill increase the 4m, the concentration re'uire! for half the enzymes to #e #oun! to su#strate, #ecause the competiti"e inhi#itors $ill al$ays occupy a specific portion of acti"e enzymes. -A competiti"e inhi#itor $ill lea"e "ma, unchange! #ecause a!!ing an infinite amount of su#strate $ill allo$ the enzyme to #in! to the su#strate more often than to the competitor.

-Noncompetitive inhibitors, also calle! allosteric inhibitors, #in! to a site on the enzyme some$here other than at the acti"e site. -*on-competiti"e inhi#itors $ill occupy a gi"en portion of enzymes at any gi"en time, there#y re!ucing "ma, regar!less of su#strate concentration. %-t is hypothesize! that the noncompetiti"e inhi#itor #in!s to the enzyme an! pre"ents it from achie"ing a specific conformational state, there#y ma(ing the enzyme nonfunctional.

5. Mechanism of enzyme reactions -Enzymes can ha"e a high specificity to a gi"en su#strate or can #e more non-specific 6!igesti"e enzymes7. --n a gi"en reaction $ith an enzyme, t$o reactants nee! to #ump into each other $ith the proper orientation in or!er for the reaction to ta(e place. An enzyme #in!s to these su#strates, there#y increasing effecti"e pro,imity an! placing the su#strates into the proper orientation. %An enzyme remains unchange! after performing the appropriate chemical reaction. 6. 8egulation of enzyme acti"ity -Isozymes are multiple forms of the same enzyme, often $ith !ifferent (inetic properties. -9actate !ehy!rogenase is gi"en as a specific e,ample $here the !istri#ution of lactate !ehy!rogenase is specific to !ifferent organs. -:hosphorylation can acti"ate or !eacti"ate a gi"en enzyme. -Allosteric enzymes -Multiple su#units can interact $ith each other or ha"e ligan!-in!uce! conformational change. in!ing of first su#strate can ma(e secon! su#strate easier to #in! -p& an! en"ironment
