WGU Biochemistry OA
Bohr Effect chart (low pH)
(ANS – C- High CO2 H- High H+ A- Acidic R-Release of O2(rt. Shift) T- tense state (in tissues)
Primary structure (ANS - Sequence of amino acids that make up a protein
Secondary Structure (ANS - Sequence of amino acids fold.
Tertiary Structure
(ANS – -more folding in a 3D shape. -R groups (side chains)
Quaternary Structure (ANS - Protein has more than 1 polypeptide chain.
Chemical reaction
(ANS – -absorb and release energy
-activation energy -energy is released (heat & light) when bonds are broken.
Exothermic reaction (ANS - Exo=to release Thermo=heat -chemical reaction that releases more energy than it absorbs (as heat & light)
Example of exothermic reaction (ANS - Cellular respiration- breaks down glucose to make cellular energy
Endothermic reaction
(ANS - Endo=absorb Thermos=heat -absorbs more energy than it releases
Example of endothermic reaction (ANS - Photosynthesis- takes in light to break down to create glucose
Catalyst (ANS - Substance that will decrease the activation energy needed to start a chemical reaction
Enzymes
(ANS – -catalysts used by cells
-increase the rate of chemical reaction -specific to substrates
Enzyme structure
(ANS – -they are proteins -twist, fold, bend to final shape -shape attracts specific molecules
Substrate (ANS - Molecules that bind to the enzyme
Active site
(ANS – -location on enzyme where substrate binds
Function of DNA polymerase in process of PCR.
(ANS – -increase expression -2 genes -SIRT1 & SIRT2
Function of a molecule (ANS - Structural component of the lipid bilayer
How would lipid production in a cell change in order to maintain fluidity of its cell membrane as it adapts to lower temperatures?
