fig 18-5
9
chemistry of the PLP aldehyde: Schiff base formation fig 18-5
10
PLP reactions: decarboxylation, deamination, racemazation
fig 18-6
11
PLP reactions: the transamination two-step...
fig 18-6
12
oxidative deamination: from amino group to ammonia
fig 18-7

oxidative deamination: from amino group to ammonia
genetic disorder from loss of GTP allosteric control… fig 18-7 NOT
14
metabolism of amino nitrogen in liver
fig 18-2
15
glutamine as a carrier of NH3 from tissue to liver fig 18-8
16
metabolism of amino nitrogen in liver
fig 18-2
17
shuttling of NH4+ from muscle to liver reminiscent of the Cori cycle, yes? actual fig 18-9
18
the urea cycle as a method of safely disposing of all that NH3+ fig 18-19
19
fig 18-10
20
fig 18-10
21
logic of the urea cycle: NH4+, aspartate, and CO2
22
making a transferable carbamoyl group…
fig 18-11
23
transferring that carbamoyl group…
24
transfering that carbamoyl group…
ornithine citruline
25
adding a good leaving group…
citruline ATP
26
using that good leaving group to do chemistry…
27
using that good leaving group to do chemistry…
fig 18-11
28
production of arginine…
+ fumarate
29
liberation of urea… arginine H2O urea!! ornithine
30
we must consume amino acids…
31
catabolism of amino acids: (most) roads lead to the Krebs cycle
fig 18-15
32
amino acids are used to make many things fig 18-22
33
epinephrine norepinephrine dopamine tyrosine gaminobuterate
things from amino acids… epinephrine norepinephrine dopamine tyrosine gaminobuterate (glutamate) glutamate tryptophan serotonin arginine NO neurotransmitters!
34
glycine porphyrins glycine creatine arginine things from amino acids…
stop
35
things from amino acids… glutathione! fig 22-27
36
diseases of amino acid catabolism fig 18-23
37
an example: pheylketonurea or PKU fig 18-23
38
an example: pheylketonurea or PKU aspartame fig 18-23
40
AMINO ACID ANABOLISM
41
it’s a legume! fixes nitrogen
42
N2 NH4+ NOx NH4+ in a.a. conversion to needed compounds
Usual route of N from atmosphere to mammalian metabolism N2 nitrogen fixation nitrifying bacteria NH4+ NOx plants, some bacteria conversion to needed compounds mammalian diet NH4+ in a.a.
43
nitrogenase at the heart of N2 fixation very sensitive to O2!!!!!
fig 22-2
44
symbiosis of N2 fixing bacteria
a protected environment: leghemoglobin fig 22-4
45
glutamine synthetase glutamate + ATP + NH4+ glutamine + ADP + Pi
fig 22-5
46
allosteric regulation of glutamine synthetase fig 22-6
47
glutamine amidotransferases
gln S NH3+ S S NH3+
48
amino acids are synthesize from Krebs, glycolysis and pentose
phosphate pathways Table 22-01
49
classic allosteric regulation of amino acid synthesis
fig 22-21
50
interlocking regulation of multiple pathways by allosteric regulation
fig 22-22
52
Lecture 16 Slides rh
53
Nucleotide Metabolism
54
nucleotide nucleoside
57
a key molecule in purine and pyrimidine biosynthesis
58
purines: where does all them darn atoms come from??
fig 22-32
59
fig 22-33
60
fig 22-33
61
ETC. fig 22-33, sorta
62
inosine, built “on the ribose” to make IMP fig 22-33, still
63
and inosinate begat adenylate and xanthylate, and xanthylate
begat guanylate… fig 22-34
64
regulation of the early steps of purine synthesis fig 22-35
65
pyrimidine biosynthesis orotate, built “off the ribose” fig 22-36
66
pyrimidine biosynthesis OTP then modified to CTP, etc fig 22-36
67
fig 22-38
68
1) de novo synthesis (see above)
Two ways for mammals to make and/or use purines and pyrimidines 1) de novo synthesis (see above) 2) salvage pathways Ad + PRPP AMP + PP
69
1) de novo synthesis (see above)
Two ways for mammals to make and/or use purines and pyrimidines 1) de novo synthesis (see above) 2) salvage pathways hypoxanthine + PRPP IMP + PP Lesch-Nyhan disease
70
1) de novo synthesis (see above)
Two ways for mammals to make and/or use purines and pyrimidines 1) de novo synthesis (see above) 2) salvage pathways pyrimidine salvage is similar but not well understood in mammals…
71
inhibitors of glutamine amindo- transferases chemo- therapeutics fig 22-48
72
remember the “D” in DNA??? either or fig 22-39
73
what’s the difference between T and U?? fig 22-44
74
where the THF gets its methy... fig 22-44
