Regulation
Carbons for amino acids
Amino acids = More than proteins! Creatine Glutathione Heme Nitric oxide Hormones Neurotransmitters
Nucleotide synthesis from many molecules
Synthesis of purines…
…starts on a ribose molecule
A & G from I
Regulation of purine synthesis
Pyrimidine biosynthesis
Regulation
In the presence of CTP, enzyme changes: A. No change in kinetic parameters B. V max increases C. K m increases D. V max decreases, K m increases E. V max decreases, K m increases, k cat increases
Nucleotide metabolism… Still have a MAJOR question… A. Source of C and N for Pu and Py rings B. Regulation of synthesis C. NTP dNTP D. NMP NTP E. Difference between plants & animals
Oxy deOxy
Regulation by reduction!
Regulation of ribonucleotide reductase
The deal with THF
