1 ame KEY SS 395G Exam 3 11 Dec points total 1. ne-carbon transfers are mediated by the coenzyme tetrahydrofolate (H 4 folate) in most organisms. However, some Archaebacteria use the structurally related coenzyme, tetrahydromethanopterin (H 4 MPT) for the same transfers. An important reaction involving these cofactors is the reduction of the bound one-carbon unit from the H 2 (methylene) oxidation state to the H 3 (methyl) oxidation state, catalyzed by a specific reductase (see reactions A and B). In the mammalian enzyme (reaction A), ADPH is the electron donor for the reduction; in the Archaebacteria enzyme (reaction B), a different cofactor, F 420 H 2 serves as electron donor. A: H 2 -H 4 folate + ADPH + H + <==> H 3 -H 4 folate + ADP + G ' = kj/mol B: H 2 -H 4 MPT + F 420 H 2 <==> H 3 -H 4 MPT + F 420 G ' = -5.5 kj/mol E ' (V) ADP + + 2H e - <==> ADPH + H F H e - <==> F 420 H F = J. volt -1. mol -1 R = J. K -1. mol pts. a. Using the values given, calculate the standard redox potential (E ') for the H 2 /H 3 couple for each system (i.e. H 2 -H 4 folate/h 3 -H 4 folate vs. H 2 -H 4 MPT/H 3 -H 4 MPT). First calculate E ' for each reaction: G ' = -nf E ' E ' = G '/-nf A: E ' = kj/mol/(-2)( kj/v/mol) = volts B: E ' = -5.5 kj/mol/(-2)( kj/v/mol) = volts ow calculate E ' from E ' = E 'acceptor - E 'donor A: H 2 -H 4 folate = acceptor; ADPH = donor V = E 'acceptor - ( V) E 'acceptor = = V B: H 2 -H 4 MPT = acceptor; F 420 H2 = donor V = E 'acceptor - ( V) E 'acceptor = = V 2
2 ame KEY SS 4 pts. b. Why do you think the Archaebacteria evolved to use F 420 H 2 instead of ADPH as the electron donor for the reduction of H 2 -H 4 MPT? Because the H 2 -H 4 MPT/H 3 -H 4 MPT redox couple is so much more negative (by ~ 200 mv) than the H 2 -H 4 folate/h 3 -H 4 folate redox couple, ADPH is not a strong enough reductant to ensure the reduction goes significantly in the direction of H 3 -H 4 MPT - need a stronger reductant = F 420 H 2 2. You have been sent samples of two new metabolic inhibitors for analysis. Using a preparation of isolated liver mitochondria incubated with pyruvate, 2, ADP and P i you find that addition of inhibitor A blocks both electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation. When you add inhibitor B in addition to A, you find to your surprise that electron transport is restored, but not oxidative phosphorylation. 5 pts. a. lassify these inhibitors in regard to their mode of action in electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation and briefly describe where they might be acting. Inhibitor A = phosphorylation inhibitor Inhibitor B = uncoupler When A is added alone, both electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation are blocked. As long as the mitochondria are tightly coupled, inhibition of either process will inhibit the other, so it is not possible to distinguish the site of inhibition. Addition of B restores electron transport, but not phosphorylation, suggesting that B is an uncoupler (dissapates the proton gradient). ompound A must be an inhibitor of phosphorylation, at the ATP synthase. 2 pts. b. ame a pair of known inhibitors that would give the same result. A = oligomycin or dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DD) B = dinitrophenol (DP) 5 pts. 3. igericin is an ionophore that exchanges K + for H + across membranes. Predict the effect of treatment of functioning mitochondria with nigericin on electron transport and ATP synthesis (oxidative phosphorylation). Explain your predictions. What effects would valinomycin, an ionophore that transports K +, but not H +, have on functioning mitochondria? Ionophores are not pumps, but rather carriers or channels that allow selected ions to flow down their concentration gradients. igericin exchanges K + for H + ions, thereby discharging the proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane (allows protons to flow back into mitochondria in exchange for K + flowing out). Since the proton gradient is generated by electron transport and discharged by the ATP synthase-mediated formation of ATP, nigericin uncouples these two processes. I.e., electron transport will continue (or even increase) but ATP synthesis will cease. Valinomycin cannot transport protons, so it will have little effect on either electron transport or ATP synthesis. Its transport of K + will decrease the membrane potential, but not change the proton gradient, thereby leaving ATP synthesis substantially undisturbed. 3
3 ame KEY SS 6 pts 4. a. Briefly summarize the mechanism by which light energy is converted to chemical energy in the light reactions of photosynthesis. (Just outline the fundamental processes involved.) Light absorption by PSI and PSII causes excitation of an electron to its singlet state. Electron is ejected and it enters electron transport chain. Protons are pumped during electron transport through the cytochrome bf complex to produce a proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane, This protonmotive force provides energy for ATP synthesis via ATP synthase. The electrons eventually flow to reduce ADP + to ADPH. 2 pts b. The chemical energy produced by the light reactions resides in two compounds needed to carry out the dark reactions. ame them. ADPH, ATP 2 pts c. List the ultimate electron donor and final electron acceptor in non-cyclic electron transport of the light reactions. H 2 = ultimate electron donor ADP = ultimate electron acceptor 5 pts. d. rdinary sunlight is very dilute. Briefly explain how the photosynthetic apparatus deals with this problem. Each photosynthetic reaction center chlorophyll is associated with a large number of antenna chlorophylls which absorb photons, and pass the energy eventually to the reaction center chlorophyll by exciton or resonance transfer. Thus, the antenna chlorophylls capture photons from "dilute" sunlight and funnel their energy to the reaction center. 5 pts e. Which is the rate-limiting step in the dark reactions? Briefly discuss the manner by which this step is regulated by light. ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate H phosphoglycerate (RUBIS reaction) Regulation is indirectly by light: Enzyme is allosteric and is stimulated by 3 different changes: 1) Increase in ph. When chloroplasts are illuminated, protons transported from stroma to thylakoid space resulting in increase in stroma ph which stimulates enzyme since located on stromal face of thylakoid membrane. 2) Mg +2 stimulates activity - enters stroma as protons leave during illumination 3) ADPH stimulates, which is generated by PSI during illumination. 4
4 ame KEY SS 5 pts. 5. a. Which is the rate-limiting step in the b-oxidation of fatty acids and how is it regulated? Transport of the fatty acyl oa substrates into mitochondria via the carnitine acyltransferase I (ATI) - this enzyme is inhibited by malonyl oa, an intermediate of fatty acid synthesis. 5 pts. b. Which is the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of fatty acids and how is it regulated? Synthesis of malonyl oa by acetyl oa carboxylase - this enzyme is activated by citrate or insulin, and inhibited by palmitoyl oa or glucagon. 2 pts. 6. Acetate provides all of the carbon atoms for cholesterol, however, it is not the direct precursor. ame the activated compound that serves as the direct precursor. Acetyl-oA or mevalonate 2 pts. 7. a. Increased ketogenesis results from a decrease/increase in carbohydrate metabolism coupled to a decrease/increase in fatty acid oxidation (circle the correct word). 3 pts. b. Which reaction, missing in liver, allows peripheral tissues such as brain to utilize acetoacetate as an energy source? b-oxoacid oa transferase: acetoacetate + succinyl oa acetoacetyl oa + succinate 4 pts 8. b-oxidation of fatty acids involves the removal of two pairs of electrons in each round. What electron carriers are used, and at what point(s) do these electrons enter the mitochondrial electron transport chain? The two oxidation steps are catalyzed by acyl-oa dehydrogenase, which uses FAD, and 3- hydroxyacyl-oa dehydrogenase, which uses AD +. The electrons on the acyl-oa dehydrogenase-bound FADH 2 enter the mitochondrial electron transport chain at coenzyme Q (ubiquinone) via electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF ). The electrons on ADH enter the mitochondrial electron transport chain at complex I (ADH-oQ reductase ). 5

The enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of dihydroorotate to orotate differ in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. ame the electron acceptor and the cellular location of the enzyme in mammalian cells. FAD or oenzyme Q (oq); mitochondria 2 pts 12. Which of the following statements about glutamine amidotransferases is false? a. ATP serves to force the equilibrium in the amination direction b. the nucleophilic ammonia produced at the active site attacks a phosphorylated intermediate c. these enzymes can use ammonia directly, but with much higher K m than for glutamine d. the nucleophilic ammonia is produced from the a-amino group of glutamine Fluorouracil is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent. 2 pts a. Which metabolic reaction is the target of this drug? Thymidylate synthase: dump + H 2 -tetrahydrofolate dtmp + DHF 3 pts b. Why is this reaction required in dividing cells? dtmp is a required precursor for DA synthesis (after its phosphorylation to dttp). Rapidly dividing cells are replicating their DA, thus requiring continuous production of dtps, including dttp. 7
7 ame KEY SS 6 pts. 14. List three types of metabolic compartmentation, giving an example of each. 1. ompartmentation within intracellular organelles, e.g. fatty acid synthesis in cytoplasm vs. fatty acid oxidation in mitochondria. 2. Distribution of metabolites between free and protein-bound states; e.g. intracellular folates are virtually all protein-bound - no free folates. 3. Substrate channeling - local flux of metabolic intermediates through sequential enzyme reactions; e.g. carbamoyl phosphate synthesis via PS. 6 pts. 15. A common variant of human methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) can lead to deficiency in reductase activity, and elevated plasma homocysteine if the patient is homozygous for this polymorphism, even though the mutation (A V) is quite far from the active site of the enzyme. However, if the patient has adequate nutritional intake of folic acid, plasma homocysteine levels return to normal. Explain these observations. MTHFR catalyzes the reduction of H 2 -THF to H 3 -THF, which is the required methyl donor for the remethylation of homocysteine in the methionine biosynthesis pathway. It has been shown that the A V variant destabilizes the enzyme, by shifting the equilibrium between active dimer and inactive monomer to the monomer state. However, if the folate substrate is bound to the enzyme, it stabilizes the dimer form, even in the A V variant. Thus, homozygotes for the variant will have decreased MTHFR activity and elevated homosyteine. However, if they have adequate folic acid in their diets, their MTHFR will remain saturated with substrate, stabilizing the enzyme, and protecting against loss of activity. 8
