#1 Specify the role each of the following amino acids play within the crystal structure and/or active site for Be as specific as possible, with pictures (and mechanistic arrows) as necessary. His11
Arg140
Glu89
Trp68
#2 Provide a step-wise mechanism for the reaction Bisphosphoglycerate mutase catalyzes, using the amino acids responsible for aiding in catalysis. You do not need to add surrounding amino acids that aid in substrate specificity. (drawn out)
The sedimentation value of aspartate transcarbamoylase decreases when the enzyme switches to the R state. On the basis of the allosteric properties of the enzyme, explain why the sedimentation value decreases.

- The Energy Cost of dTTP Synthesis (Integrates with Chapter 20.) Starting from HCO3, glutamine, aspartate, and ribosc-5-P, how many ATP equivalents are consumed in the synthesis of dTTP in a eukaryotic cell, assuming dihydroorotate oxidation is coupled to oxidative phosphorylation? How does this result compare with the ATP costs of purine nucleotide biosynthesis calculated in problem 2?arrow_forwardIntramitochondrial ATP concentrations are about 5 mM, and phosphate concentration is about 10 mM. If ADP is five times more abundant than AMP, calculate the molar concentrations of ADP and AMP at an energy charge of 0.85. Calculate AG for ATP hydrolysis at 37 °C under these condi- tions.

Pyridoxal phosphate can accept an amino group, and its aminated form, pyridoxamine phosphate, can donate its amino group to an alpha-keto acid.

- Phosphoribosyltransferase (PRT) catalyzes the attachment of a salvaged purine nitrogenous base on the activated form of ribose-5-phosphate called 5-phosphoribosyl- α α-pyrophosphate ( α α-PRPP). True Or Falsearrow_forwardThe reaction catalyzed by phosphorylase is readily reversible in vitro. At pH 6.8, the equilibrium ratio of orthophosphate to glucose 1-phosphate is 3.6. The value of ΔG°’ for this reaction is small because a glycosidic bond is replaced by a phosphoryl ester bond that has a nearly equal transfer potential. However, phosphorolysis proceeds far in the direction of glycogen breakdown in vivo. Suggest one means by which the reaction can be made irreversible in vivo.arrow_forwardRefer to the reaction scheme of the GAPDH catalyzed formation of 1,3-BPG. In the reaction, the nucleophile in step (4) is an inorganic phosphate molecule. The enzyme active site is elaborately constructed so that inorganic phosphate, not water, acts as the nucleophile. What advantage is gained by using inorganic phosphate, instead of water, as the nucleophile? Discuss in terms of the energy yield of glycolysis. No need to calculate the total net energy yield of glycolysis.arrow_forward
