Objectives • Know selected structures (abbreviated structures) • Recognize types of reactions and relate to appropriate cofactor • Selected major mechanisms
1. Phosphorylation and Energy Transfer • ATP • Phosphate transfer • Hydrolysis • Reaction:
2. Redox Reactions • NADH/NAD+ (NADPH/NADP+) • Know abbreviated structure
Reaction of NADH/NAD+ • 2 electron transfer • DH • cosubstrate • Know general oxidation and reduction Enzyme: Lactate DH
Flavins • FAD/FADH2 • FMN/FMNH2 • Recognize abbreviated structure
Reactions of Flavins • 1 or 2 electron transfer • Prosthetic group • No mechanisms
3. Acyl Carrier/Transfer • Coenzyme A • Pantothenate is vitamin B5 • Know abbreviated Acetyl CoA structure
Reactions of Acetyl CoA • Thioester is a nucleophile • High energy linkage • Review Nucleophilic Acyl substitution • Reaction:
Lipoamide • Technically, not a vitamin • Connected to protein—recognize abbreviated • Electrophilic acyl carrier—see mechanism • Redox reaction
4. Decarboxylation • Thiamine Pyrophosphate (TPP or TDP) • Know abbreviated structure
Reactions • Decarboxylases • a-keto acids • Know initial phase of reaction:
5. Reactions of Amino Acids • Pyridoxal phosphate (B6) • Know abbreviated structure
Schiff Base formation • Covalent imine formation with lysine • No mechanism—but structure of pdt • Bad mechanism given in book!
Reactions • Decarboxylation, Racemization, Transamination, Others
One Carbon Transfers • Recognize coenzyme • Know oxidation level of transfer
