Textbook Question
Chapter 41.4, Problem 3CC
WHAT IF? → "Lactose-intolerant" people have a shortage of lactase, the enzyme that breaks down lactose in milk. As a result, they sometimes develop cramps, bloating, or diarrhea after consuming dairy products. Suppose such a person ate yogurt that contains bacteria that produce lactase. Why would eating yogurt likely provide at best only temporary relief of the symptoms?

1) Discuss recent findings on the effects of consumption of cholesterol and saturated, polyunsaturated, and monounsaturated fats. Give examples of each type of fat.
2) We often think only of DNA and RNA as nucleic acids. Discuss the role of other, less “well-known” nucleic acids, such as cAMP, cGMP, NADH, NADPH, and FADH.
3) Collagen is a very important structural protein in animals. Discuss the various parts of the body in which collagen is an important structural molecule and what its function is at each body location.
B) Read the situations below and indicate which of the four methods of enzyme regulation is
occurring for each.
a) The energy-carrying molecule ATP is made by the enzyme ATP synthase. Muscle cells use a
lot of energy and also have higher amounts of the ATP synthase enzyme than many ouier cem
types.
General mechanism of enzyme regulation:
/1
b) Prostaglandins are messenger molecules involved in the inflammatory response, as well as th
perception of pain. They are synthesized from polyunsaturated fatty acid substrates by an enzyn
called cyclo-oxygenase. "Ibuprofen" is the active ingredient in a variety of anti-inflammatory
medications such as Motrin® and Advil®. It reduces pain and swelling by binding to a
hydrophobic channel in the active site of cyclo-oxygenase, blocking the polyunsaturated fatty
acids from binding to the enzyme, and therefore stopping production of prostaglandins.
General mechanism of enzyme regulation:
a) In point form, describe the steps by which ATP is produced…
а)
Describe the degradation of glycogen, highlighting important enzymes which are involved.
In McArdle's discase, a type of glycogen storage disease, there is a total deficiency of muscle
glycogen phosphorylase. An individual with such disease is not able to exercise strenuously
and experiences muscle cramps. Exercise leads to higher than normal levels of cellular ADP
and Pi. Besides, lactic acid does not accumulate, as in the case of a normal individual. Explain
b)
the chemical imbalances shown in McArdle's discase.

- You are what you eat. What does this mean? If you eat only celery, will you become a vegetable? Sometimes there are so many words used to describe foods and nutrition, it is difficult to make sense of them. In fact, we do use the food we eat to provide energy and also the building blocks for growth and development. Even after you are fully-grown, your body, just like any other machine, needs to make constant repairs to injured areas and must replace cells that have died. To make sure that the structure of your body is correct and strong, you must provide it with a regular supply of the right building materials. Foods are the building materials for the body. There are six large categories of nutrients in food. These are carbohydrates, protein, fats, vitamins, minerals, and water. Each food you eat not only contains more than one nutrient, but also a different number of calories (energy). Fat, protein, and carbohydrates provide calories, or energy as well as building blocks. Vitamins,…arrow_forwardHow does the presence of α-bonds versus β-bonds influence the digestibility of glucose polymers by humans?

They give Allosteric rate curves their Sigmoid shape. 2) Hetero or Homotrophic effects=are changes in affinity due to binding of an effector to an Allosteric site. Allosteric sites are usually 3)located outside or inside the active site. Positive Allosteric effectors (activators) shift the rate curve 4) Left or Right, where Negative effectors shift it 5) right or left.
