Factors affecting enzyme function
 pH

changes in pH
 adds or remove H+
 disrupts bonds, disrupts 3D shape
 disrupts attractions between charged amino acids
 affect 2° & 3° structure
 denatures protein (end 10/11)

optimal pH?
 most human enzymes = pH 6-8
 depends on localized conditions
 pepsin (stomach) = pH 2-3
 trypsin (small intestines) = pH 8

Salinity
reaction rate
What’s
happening here?!
salt concentration
AP Biology
Factors affecting enzyme function
 Salt concentration

changes in salinity
 adds or removes cations (+) & anions (–)
 disrupts bonds, disrupts 3D shape
 disrupts attractions between charged amino acids
 affect 2° & 3° structure
 denatures protein

enzymes intolerant of extreme salinity
 Dead Sea is called dead for a reason!
AP Biology
Compounds which help enzymes
Fe in
 Activators
hemoglobin

cofactors
 non-protein, small inorganic
compounds & ions
 Mg, K, Ca, Zn, Fe, Cu
 bound within enzyme molecule

coenzymes
 non-protein, organic molecules
 bind temporarily or permanently to
enzyme near active site
AP Biology
 many vitamins
 NAD (niacin; B3)
 FAD (riboflavin; B2)
 Coenzyme A
Mg in
chlorophyll
Compounds which regulate enzymes
 Inhibitors
molecules that reduce enzyme activity
 competitive inhibition
 noncompetitive inhibition
 irreversible inhibition
 feedback inhibition

AP Biology
Competitive Inhibitor
 Inhibitor & substrate “compete” for active site


penicillin
blocks enzyme bacteria use to build cell walls
disulfiram (Antabuse)
treats chronic alcoholism
 blocks enzyme that
breaks down alcohol
 severe hangover & vomiting
5-10 minutes after drinking
 Overcome by increasing substrate
concentration

AP Biology
saturate solution with substrate
so it out-competes inhibitor
for active site on enzyme
Non-Competitive Inhibitor
 Inhibitor binds to site other than active site


allosteric inhibitor binds to allosteric site
causes enzyme to change shape
 conformational change
 active site is no longer functional binding site
 keeps enzyme inactive

some anti-cancer drugs
inhibit enzymes involved in DNA synthesis
 stop DNA production
 stop division of more cancer cells

cyanide poisoning
irreversible inhibitor of Cytochrome C,
an enzyme in cellular respiration
 stops production of ATP
AP Biology
Irreversible inhibition
 Inhibitor permanently binds to enzyme

competitor
 permanently binds to active site

allosteric
 permanently binds to allosteric site
 permanently changes shape of enzyme
 nerve gas, sarin, many insecticides
(malathion, parathion…)
 cholinesterase inhibitors

AP Biology
doesn’t breakdown the neurotransmitter,
acetylcholine
Allosteric regulation
 Conformational changes by regulatory
molecules

inhibitors
 keeps enzyme in inactive form

activators
 keeps enzyme in active form

are organized in pathways

AP Biology
divide chemical reaction
into many small steps
 artifact of evolution
  efficiency
 intermediate branching points
  control = regulation
Efficiency
 Organized groups of enzymes

enzymes are embedded in membrane
and arranged sequentially
 Link endergonic & exergonic reactions
Whoa!
All that going on
in those little
mitochondria!
AP Biology
Feedback Inhibition
 Regulation & coordination of production


product is used by next step in pathway
final product is inhibitor of earlier step
 allosteric inhibitor of earlier enzyme
 feedback inhibition

no unnecessary accumulation of product

Feedback inhibition
 Example
synthesis of amino
acid, isoleucine from
amino acid, threonine
 isoleucine becomes
the allosteric
inhibitor of the first
step in the pathway

 as product
accumulates it
collides with enzyme
more often than
substrate does

Cooperativity
 Substrate acts as an activator



substrate causes conformational
change in enzyme
 induced fit
favors binding of substrate at 2nd site
makes enzyme more active & effective
 hemoglobin
Hemoglobin
 4 polypeptide chains
 can bind 4 O2;
 1st O2 binds
 now easier for other
O2 to bind
