Lec 15: AMINO ACID CATABOLISM
fate of amino nitrogen in mammals fig 18-1
nitrogen removal molecules… fig 18-2
transamination reaction pg 677
chemistry of the PLP aldehyde: Schiff base formation fig 18-5
PLP reactions: decarboxylation, deamination, racemazation fig 18-6
oxidative deamination: from amino group to ammonia genetic disorder from loss of GTP allosteric control… fig 18-7 NOT
glutamine as a carrier of NH3 from tissue to liver fig 18-8
shuttling of NH4+ from muscle to liver reminiscent of the Cori cycle, yes? actual fig 18-9
the urea cycle as a method of safely disposing of all that NH3+ fig 18-19
making a transferable carbamoyl group… fig 18-11
transfering that carbamoyl group… ornithine citruline
ATP adding a good leaving group… citruline
production of arginine… arginine + fumarate
arginine H2O ornithine urea!! liberation of urea…
coupling between the “Krebs cycles” fig 18-12
a signal for increased urea production… fig 18-13
clinical biochemical strategy for removing ammonia… fig 18-14
catabolism of amino acids: (most) roads lead to the Krebs cycle fig 18-15
one-carbon metabolism cofactors fig 18-16
one-carbon metabolism cofactors fig 18-16
amino acids are used to make many things fig 18-22
diseases of amino acid catabolism fig 18-23
an example: pheylketonurea or PKU fig 18-23
an example: pheylketonurea or PKU aspartame fig 18-23
