acetyl group formyl group 12.1A
Acyl transfer (another way of looking at the same reaction type) Transesterification (Acetyl group transferred from isopentanol to methanol) Ester hydrolysis (acetyl group transferred to water) 12.1B
Amide hydrolysis (acyl group transferred from amine to water) 12.1B
Acid derivatives are less reactive electrophiles than ketones/aldehydes 12.1C
these are both downhill reactions energy of one ATP has been ‘spent’ shorthand: 12.2A
This time, NH3 comes directly from glutamine hydrolysis! (Glutamine is a carrier of NH3) 12.2B
Condensed: All this is happening in a single enzyme! 12.2B
Thioesters are also reactive acyl groups: important in lipid metabolism
acetic acid - important central metabolite (in acetyl-CoA form) 12.3A
Fatty acids need to be activated in order to be transferred onto glycerol 12.3C
First, the fatty acyl group is transferred to a cysteine group on the enzyme (transthioesterification) 12.3C
transfer to glycerol: downhill reaction! 12.3C
Thioester hydrolysis (citric acid cycle) 12.3E
Esterification laboratory: acid-catalyzed isopentyl acetate (‘banana oil’) 12.4A
basic ester hydrolysis 12.4B
Base-catalyzed ester hydrolysis: saponification soap! lipase enzymes catalyze the same reaction 12.4B
Enzymatic ester hydrolysis: acetylcholinesterase and sarin acetylcholinesterase: breaks down acetylcholine in synapse after it triggers nerve impulse 12.4C
Sarin nerve gas irreversibly inactivates acetylcholinesterase 12.4C
haloalkane dehalogenase 12.4D
Transesterification -the molecular action of aspirin aspirin acetylates (thus inactivating) an enzyme that makes prostaglandin, a signaling molecule that initiates inflammation 12.4E
Nonenzymatic transesterification - biodiesel from vegetable oil 12.4E
Peptide bonds 12.5A
Formation of a new peptide bond (on the ribosome): essentially, amine plus carboxylate to amide plus water! Step 1 - activating amino acid 12.5A
Puromycin mimics tRNA-Phe, blocks active site ester linkage replaced by amide - less reactive synthesis machinery in mammals is different - puromycin has no effect 12.5A
