Transcription

(nucleus) DNA TO RNA

Absorptive competition of amino acids

-If too much of one basic amino acid is present in the lumen it will outcompete the others for the basic AA transporter AKA it will reduce absorption of others -Di and Tripeptides are absorbed more efficiently than individual AA's

The proteolytic enzymes secreted by the pancreas and their roles

-Trypsin - converts zymogens into active enzymes (chymotrypsin, carboxypeptidases A and B, elastase) -Proteolytic enzymes break polypeptides into peptides, and eventually into amino acids

Someone has advanced liver disease—what happens to the blood level of ammonia?

It will go up • So will AST and ALT • Presence of Ketones in blood will go down or be non-existent

The organ associated with the urea cycle, gluconeogenesis, and ketogenesis in the human body.

LIVER

The type of enzyme for deamination.

lysases, dehydrases, dehydrogenases

ureagenesis

making of urea

What do we call amino acids that can be made by body if enough of essential amino acid is needed?

Conditionally essential

The entire digestive process of proteins

1. Gastrin released by stomach>acts on parietal cells to release HCl, chief cells to release pepsinogen 2. HCl (pH=3) denatures proteins and converts pepsinogen to pepsin 3. Pepsin is enteropeptidase>large polypeptides and oligopeptides 4. Chyme moves to small intestine 5. Secretin and Cholescystokinin release>pancreas releases bicarbonate and mixture of protein digestion zymogens 6. Enterocytes secrete enteropeptidate>converts trypsinogen to trypsin . 7. Trypsin converts zymogens to chymotrypsin, carboxypeptidases A and B, elastase 8. Chymotrypsin (Zn dependent)>endopeptidase; carboxypeptidases>exopeptidases 9. Elastase digests elastin 10. Enterocytes release intestinal peptidases>aminopeptidases (produce aa's), dipeptidyl aminopeptidases (Mg dependent) (hydrolyze dipeptides), tripeptidases (yield dipeptides and aa's) 11. All ultimately yields: aa's, dipeps, tripeps

ENDOPEPTIDASES

The definition of endopeptidases

The role of the liver in amino acid metabolism

Hepatocytes use AA for energy

Basolateral (serosal) membrane

INTO THE BLOOD FROM THE ENTEROCYTE. Once thru the basolateral membrane, amino acids enter the blood thru capillaries of the villi for transport into the portal vein leading to the liver. The carriers found in the enterocyte's basolateral membrane are generally SODIUM INDEPENDENT.

Brush border membrane

INTO THE ENTEROCYTE. uses PEPT1 (PEPT1 is associated with the comovement of protons H+ and thus depolarization of the brush border membrane). An area of low pH lying adjacent to the brush border surface of the enterocyte provides the driving force of the H+ gradient

The overall absorptive process for amino acids including the fact of specialized transport proteins for different categories of amino acids

a. Specific integral protein carriers are required to transport amino acids and short peptides (di- and tri-) - Across the brush border membrane specific carriers for different types of amino acids and different carrier for short peptides (PEPT1) Ex: separate transporters for neutral, basic, and acidic aa's Some sodium dependent and others not Most aa's absorbed as di- and tripeptides - Within the enterocytes peptidases degrade di- and tripeptides to aa's - Across basolateral membrane to blood specific carriers as well b. At brush border there is competition for absorption of aa's - For instance: if too much of one basic amino acid is present in the lumen it will outcompete the others for the basic amino acid transporter reducing absorption of others - Di-and tripeptides absorbed more efficiently and effectively than individual aa's Why in elemental tube feeding formulas use di-and tripeptides rather than amino acids to supply aa's Free aa supplements not absorbed as efficiently and effectively as those with whole proteins or di- and tripeptides
