Examination of the cleavage of the amide substrate shown by chymotrypsin with the use of stopped-flow kinetic methods reveals no burst. The reaction is monitored by noting the color produced by the release of the amino part of the substrate (highlighted in orange). Why is no burst observed with the amide substrate? H3C H₂C ZI 14 ZI The formation of the acyl-enzyme intermediate is slower than the hydrolysis of the acyl-enzyme intermediate. Chymotrypsin can cleave ester substrates, but it cannot cleave amide substrates. Acyl-enzyme intermediate hydrolysis occurs much more slowly than acyl-enzyme intermediate formation. The colored product remains attached to the enzyme after the acyl-enzyme intermediate is hydrolyzed. N

*In the presence of saturating amounts of oxaloacetate, the activity of citrate synthase from pig heart tissue shows a sigmoidal dependence on the concentration of acetyl-SCOA as shown below. SCOA is added, the curve shifts to the right and becomes even more sigmoidal. On the basis of these observations, explain how succinyl- SCOA regulates the activity of citrate synthase. Why is succinyl-SCOA an appropriate signal for regulation of the citric acid cycle? does the regulation of citrate synthase control the rate of cellular respiration in pig heart tissue? 100 - 80 succinyl-CoA Activity (% of V, 60 40- No Succinyl-CoA added 20 40 60 80 100 120 [Acetyl-CoAl(pM) - How -

G-alpha-i is unable to inhibit adenylyl cyclase. Results in increased cAMP (mostly in lung cells) Blocks a receptor that activated G-alpha-s, thus, prevents the activation of G-alpha-s. Results in decreased cAMP (mostly in heart cells) Blocks voltage gated sodium channels Prevents G-alpha-s from hydrolyzing GTP. G-alpha- s can't turn off.
