The anti-obesity drug orlistat works by irreversibly inhibiting pancreatic lipase, an enzyme responsible for the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols in the intestines, so they are excreted without metabolism. Inhibition occurs by reaction of orlistat with a serine residue of the enzyme, forming a covalently bound, inactive enzyme product. Draw the structure of the product formed during inhibition.
Please draw by hand. Triosephosphate isomerase (TIM) catalyzes the conversion of dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate. The enzyme's catalytic groups are Glu 165 and His 95. In the first step of the reaction, these catalytic groups function as a base and an acid catalyst, respectively. Propose a mechanism for the reaction. ОН 2-03Р0 ОН dihydroxyacetone phosphate triosephosphate isomerase 2-03РО. H glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate FYI Glu is glutamic acid and his is histadine
The overall adenylate kinase reaction (2 ADP = AMP + ATP) is a combination of 3 reactions: ATP hydrolysis, pyrophosphate hydrolysis, and ATP formation. Show each step and provide the standard free energy (ΔG°′) for each and the overall reaction. If the adenylate kinase reaction is at equilibrium and intracellular [ATP] = 5 mM and [ADP] = 0.5 mM, calculate the concentration of AMP at pH 7 and 25 °C. Show all work. ATP (ADP+P) = -30.5 kj/mol; ATP (AMP+PP) = -45.6 kj/mol; PP = -19.2 kj/mol
