  1. Elements Prof. Dr. Richard Průša

  2. Elements • Bioanorganic chemistry • C, N, P, O, H, S: proteins, nucleic acids, sugars, lipids • Ionts: K, F, Cl, I, Na, Ca, Fe • Essential trace elements: Mg, Cr, Co, Cu, Mo, Se, Zn • Toxic trace elements: As, Ba, Cd, Pb, Li, Hg, Pt

  3. Elements • Trace elements: tissue conc. less than 50 mg/kg • Biologically active elements • Toxic elements, toxicology

  4. Carbon • Nonreactive element • CO, CO-Hb • CO2, HCO3 • HCN

  5. Hydrogen, oxygen • H – highly reactive, H2 • H2O • O, O2, O3 pO2, pCO2 – air, blood • CO, NO • H2O2 • Highly reactive forms of oxygen – anionts and radicals (10 forms): peroxide, superoxide, hydroxyl, peroxyl, perhydroxyl

  6. Nitrogen, sulphur • N2, boiling point -200 C • NH3, NH4, NH2 • N2O, NO, N2O3, NO2, N205 • HNO2 – nitrates, met-Hb • HNO3 – nitrites • H2S, H2SO4 – sulphates, SH

  7. Phosphorus, calcium, magnesium • H3P04, phosphates, bone, buffer, esters • Ca – bone (phosphate, carbonate, fluoride) • Ca – ionized, proteins, citrate, lactate • Oxalate, urate – renal stones • S-Ca 2.15 – 2.50 mmol/l • S-phosphate 0.80 – 1.45 mmol/l • S-Mg 0.65 – 1.1 mmol/l (urine – inh.)

  8. Chromium • Role: metabolism of glucose, chromodulin (intracellular octapeptide), LMWCr factor • Deficiency: impaired glucose tolerance • Toxicity: occupational

  9. Copper • Ceruloplasmin, acerulopl. • Cytochrom c oxidase, lysine 6-oxidase • Ferroxidase I and II, monoamine oxidase • Melanocytes – tyrosinase • Wilson d., Menkes sy., biliary obstr. • S-Cu 11-22 umol/l

  10. Cobalt, fluorine • Component of vitamin B12 • Deficiency – anemia • Prevents tooth decay • Deficiency – increased dental caries

  11. Manganese • Required for glycoprotein and proteoclycan synthesis • Superoxide dismutase • Pyruvate carboxylase • Arginase • Toxicity

  12. Molybdenum • Sulphite oxidase • Xanthine dehydrogenase • Aldehyde oxidase

  13. Selenium • Selenocystein (Se instead of sulphur), 21st aminoacid, UGA, tRNA • Glutathione peroxidases (4x) • Thioredoxin reductase • Selenoprotein P (10 atoms of Se) • Iodothyronine deiodinase (T4 – T3)

  14. Zinc • About 300 zinc metalloenzymes and proteins • Metallothioneins • Carbonic anhydrase, alkaline phosphatase, • RNA and DNA polymerases • Alcohol dehydrogenase, thimidine kinase • Deficiency (AE), toxicity
