CHARACTERISTICS OF BIOLOGICAL CATALYSTS The conversion of S to P occurs because a fraction of the S molecules has the energy necessary to achieve a reactive condition known as the transition state (S-P intermediate) Enzymes (catalysts) work by lowering the free energy of activation related to the transition state A-B + C A….B….C A + B-C Ej.

ENZYME CATALYSIS It is the analysis of the velocity (or rate) of a chemical reaction catalysed by an enzyme, and how the velocities can change on the basis of environmental parameters modifications. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO KNOW? • How the rate of an enzyme-catalysed reaction can be defined in a mathematical way • Velocity units • What is the order of a reaction (first-order reaction/second order reaction? 3.3.

Factors affecting the enzymatic activity Enzyme concentration -Enzymatic activity international unit (U): quantity of enzyme able to transform 1.0 mol substrate per minute at 25ºC (under optimal conditions) - Specific enzymatic activity (U/mg): number of enzymatic unit per mg of purified protein. It indicates how pure the enzyme is. Balls: they represent proteins Red balls: enzyme molecules Both cylinders: same activity units Right cylinder shows higher specific activity than the left cylinder 3.3. ENZYME KINETICS Temperature The rates of enzyme-catalysed reactions generally increase with increasing temperature. However, at high temperatures the activity declines because of the thermal denaturation of the protein structure. pH Enzymes in general are active only over a limited pH range, and most have a particular pH at which their catalytic activity is optimal. pH changes can modify side chain, prosthetic groups and substrate charges, and consequently, the activity of the enzyme. Factors affecting the enzymatic activity 3.3. ENZYME KINETICS Enzymatic inhibition • Inhibition: velocity of an enzymatic reaction is decreased or inhibited by some agent (inhibitors) – Irreversible • Inhibitor causes stable, covalent alterations in the enzyme – Examples: » Ampicillin: causes covalent modification of a transpeptidase catalysing the synthesis of the bacterial cellular wall » Aspirin: causes covalent modification in a cyclooxygenase involved in inflammation – Reversible • Inhibitor interact with the enzyme through noncovalent association/dissociation reactions. 3.3.

ENZYME KINETICS Living systems must regulate the enzymatic catalytic activity to: - Coordinate metabolic processes - Promote adaptations to environmental changes - Growth and complete the living cycle in the correct way Two mechanisms of regulation: 1.- Control of the enzyme availability 2.- Control of the enzymatic activity, by means of modifications of the conformation or structure 3.4. ENZYME REGULATION Allosteric enzyme: Oligomeric organization (more than one active site and more than one effector-binding site) The regulatory effects exerted on the enzyme’s activity are achieved by conformational changes occurring in the protein when effector metabolites bind Conformational states for a protein (monomer): Taut state (T): Low substrate affinity Relaxed state (R) : High substrate affinity ALLOSTERIC REGULATION 3.4.

Some proteins are synthesized as inactive precursors, called zymogens or proenzymes, that acquire full activity only upon specific proteolytic cleavage of one or several of their peptide bonds It is not energy dependent The peptide bond cleavage is irreversible Examples Digestive enzymes Blood clotting Peptidic hormone (insulin) Collagen Caspases: apoptosis 3.4. ENZYME REGULATION PROTEOLYSIS Trypsin cleaves the peptide bond joining Arg15 - Ile16 Chymotrypsin π is an enzymatically active form that acts upon other Chymotrypsin π molecules, excising two peptides. The end product is the mature protease Chymotrypsin α, in which the three peptide chains remain together because they are linked by two disulfide bonds PROTEOLYSIS COVALENT MODIFICATION 3.4.
