Acetyl Coenzyme A
|
Contains a derivative of pantothenic acid
|
Activation Energy
|
Energy required to trigger a chemical reatction
|
Active site
|
Point on enzyme where substrate binds & reaction occurs
|
Aerobic respiration
|
The final electron acceptor is oxygen
|
Allosteric inhibition
|
Bonds to enzyme's allosteric site
-when bound,alters acitve site so substrate cannot bind/controls chemical pathways
|
Amphibolic Pathways
|
Pathways in Krebs cycle which can operate in both anabolic & catabolic reactions
|
Anabolic reactions
|
Biosynthetic
|
Apoenzyme
|
Large protein portion
|
ATP
|
Adenosine Triphosphate
Stores energy derived from catabolic reactions
|
Binding Inhibition
|
Bind metal ion cofactors preventing react.
-irreversible,enzymes poisons(cyanide, fluoride)
|
Biochemical pathway
|
Sequence of enzymatically controlled reaction occurring in living cell
|
Biosynthesis
|
?
|
Catabolic Reaction
|
Degradative
|
Catalysts
|
Substane that speeds up chemical reaction w/out being altered
|
Citric acid cycle
|
The Krebs Cycle also called
tricarboxylic acid(TCA) cycle
|
