3. Enzyme Regulation

4. Conditions Affecting Enzyme Activity pH temperature

5. pH

6. Effects of pH on Enzyme Activity Protonation state of side chains –Variation in protein structure –Substrate binding –catalysis Ionization of substrate –Substrate binding

7. Temperature Protein unfolding

8. Control of Enzyme Availability Principles of Genetic Regulation

9. Types of Enzymes “ Control of Gene Expression” Constitutive Enzymes: e.g. glycolytic enzymes and gluconeogenic enzymes Inducible Enzymes: e.g.  -galactosidase Repressible Enzymes: e.g. ten enzymes of histidine biosynthesis

10. Negative Regulators [Bind to operators or upstream repression sequences (URS)]

11. Positive Regulators [Bind to promoters, enhancers or upstream activation sequences (UAS)]

12. Regulation of Enzyme Catalytic Activity Covalent Modification Allosteric Enzymes

13. Principles Governing Controls of Enzyme Catalytic Activity Regulatory Enzymes –Enzyme catalyzing committed, rate-limiting step (often first step) –Thermodynamically highly favorable reaction Outcomes of Regulation –Feedback inhibition (fbi) of biosynthetic pathways –Modulation of metabolic flux

14. Reversible Covalent Modification

17. Allosteric Enzymes (Modulation of Enzyme Catalytic Activity) Substrate Binding Catalytic Rate Both

18. Allosteric (Regulatory) Enzymes

19. Homotropic Effects

20. Heterotropic Effects

21. Figure 12-16 Glycogen Phosphorylase

22. Regulation of Biosynthetic Pathways

23. Rationale for Regulation Efficiency and Flexibility

24. Biological Efficiency Biosynthesis –Synthesize precursors not available in diet –Cease synthesis when precursors become available in diet (pre-existing enzymes) –Produce precursors and macromolecules at appropriate rates Catabolism –Degrade most appropriate nutrients at appropriate rates

25. Biological Flexibility Adaptaton to Dietary Changes –Need for biosynthetic products –Catabolism of new nutrients –Control of pre-existing enzymes Metabolic Flux –Rates of metabolism reflecting needs for energy and macromolecular synthesis

26. Competing Reactions: Regulation

27. Control Mechanisms Control of Enzyme Availability –Induction/repression Control of Enzyme Activity –Covalent/Non-covalent Control of Substrate Availability

28. Types of Regulation Specific: pathway’s substrate or product General: needs for C or N sources or growth rates (e.g. energy charge)

29. Signals Mediating Regulation Availability of Substrates or Products (Ligands) Regulatory Proteins

30. Biosynthetic Pathways

31. Simple Feedback Inhibition

32. Complex Feedback Inhibition

33. Mechanisms of Complex Feedback Inhibition Cumulative: sum of individual inhibitions Concerted: both end products required for inhibition Isoenzyme: two enzymes, each inhibitable by different end product

34. Cumulative Feedback Inhibition A GF ED CB A GF ED CBA GF ED CB

35. Concerted Feedback Inhibition A GF ED CB A GF ED CBA GF ED CB

36. Isozymes A GF ED CBA GF ED CB A GF ED CB

37. Modulation of Metabolic Flux Energy Charge

38. Energy Charge (Daniel Atkinson) Steady-State E.C. = 0.93 ATP, ADP and AMP = Regulatory Ligands

39. Energy Charge Anabolic pathways (Biosynthesis) Require ATP Activated –High EC (ATP) Inhibited –Low EC (AMP) Catabolic Pathways (Degradation) Produce ATP Activated –Low EC (AMP) Inhibited –Hig EC (ATP)
