Enzymes (If you don’t have the energy, we can help!)
Enzymes • Biological catalysts • Made primarily from proteins • Bind to substrate • Not used up • Speed up reaction
Catalysis Uncatalyzed Catalyzed Transition G EA R G R P P time time
Catalysts • Increase rate of reaction • Provide activation energy • Energy is conserved • Activation energy has to come from somewhere
Sources of Activation energy • Binding energy • Solvent released from active site when substrate binds increases ΔSsurr • Induced fit • Enzyme forces substrate into unstable transition state • Catalytic antibodies • Binding substrate brings reactive groups together
Catalysis by an enzyme • E + S > ES > EP > E + P
Enzyme Example Serine Proteases • http://www.bio.cmu.edu/courses/03231/Protease/SerPro.htm • Active site and substrate • Note side chain interactions • Substrate diffuses into active site
Serine proteases • Substrate binds to active site • Chemical groups interact • Force substrate into unstable intermediate
Serine Proteases • Peptide bond is cleaved • Serine in active site is bound to carboxyl side of peptide
Serine proteases • Half of protein diffuses out • Enzyme used up • Has to be regenerated
Serine proteases • Water diffuses into active site • Juxtaposes chemical groups • Similar reaction to first
Serine proteases • New unstable intermediate generated
Serine Proteases • Carboxyl end of peptide diffuses out • Enzyme regenerated • Ready for another round
Serine protease summary • Enzyme stabilized by various side chain interactions • Substrate binds to enzyme. • Fits pocket • Forms unstable intermediate • Chemical groups on enzyme do reaction • Chemistry happens and product diffuses out • Enzyme regenerated
Kinetics • Study of reaction rates • Why? • Used to determine mechanisms • Michaelis Menton kinetics V = rate of reaction • Vmax = maximum reaction rate [S] • Substrate concentration • Km = substrate concentration where rate is half maximal
I E S I S E Enzyme inhibition, Competitive • Both substrate and inhibitor bind to active site • Compete • Inhibitor blocks substrate from binding
Michaelis- Menton Plot for competitive inhibition V uninhib Vmax inhibited Vmax/2 [S] Km Kmi
Michaelis- Menton Plot for competitive inhibition • Vmax is not changed • Km increased • Since substrate has to outcompete the inhibitor for the active site, it takes more substrate to get to the same rate.
Noncompetitive Inhibition S I I • Inhibitor binds to an allosteric site on the enzyme • Changes active site so substrate doesn’t bind
Michaelis- Menton Plot for noncompetitive inhibition V uninhib Vmax uninhib Vmax inhib Vmax/2 [S] Km
Michaelis- Menton Plot for noncompetitive inhibition • Inhibition lowers Vmax • Km unchanged • Since inhibitor doesn’t bind to active site, changing amount of substrate will have no effect
Michaelis Menton Kinetics Summary • Competitive inhibition • Inhibitor competes with substrate for active site • Vmax unchanged • Km increased • Noncompetitive inhibition • Inhibitor binds to allosteric site changing active site • Vmax lowered • Km unchanged
Allosteric Activation S S A A • Active site will not bind substrate • Allosteric activator binds and changes shape of active site • Now substrate binds
