Amino Acids and Peptides

        Help!  

Question
Answer
show amino acids  
🗑
show amino acids; last resource for metabolic energy  
🗑
amino acids are classified based on   show
🗑
the carbon in the center of the amino acid; has an amine, R group,H, and acid group attached   show
🗑
show zwitterionic  
🗑
Amino Acids are asymmetric, except for   show
🗑
CORN   show
🗑
All 20 standard amino acids are "L" true/ false?   show
🗑
show true  
🗑
amino acids are broken into charged and uncharged; the 5 subclasses are?   show
🗑
negative amino acids (2)   show
🗑
Positive Amino Acids (3)   show
🗑
Polar amino acids (5) STAGC   show
🗑
Aromatic Amino acids (3) PTT   show
🗑
show Valine, Alanine, Leucine, Glycine, Isoleucine, Methionine, Proline  
🗑
show Glycine; R group is a Hydrogen; no chiral structure so cannot determine CORN  
🗑
Size/ shape of R- groups determine protein topology, form hydrophobic faces   show
🗑
WHent he R group of an amino acid is attached to the amine group what happens?   show
🗑
show Neutral aromatic; planar shape and stacking  
🗑
Which amino acid R group is an SH   show
🗑
show check PPT notes  
🗑
an oxidized derivative of cysteine   show
🗑
show Low  
🗑
Cystine causes disease under what conditions?   show
🗑
show hydrophilic surfaces in proteins; salt bridges in proteins; acid/ base and covalent protein chemistry  
🗑
show Fat not utilized by brain or RBC's  
🗑
show Essential Amino Acids  
🗑
Tyrosine is biosynthesized from   show
🗑
show Esential amino acids  
🗑
show Non-essential; also Tyrosine  
🗑
Semi-essential amino acids required by children and pregnant women   show
🗑
show non-essential  
🗑
If no Phenylalinine there is also no   show
🗑
show Methionine  
🗑
show Iso; Leu; Lys; Meth; Phenyl; Threo; Trypto; Val  
🗑
show 0.8g "high quality"; contains all the essential amino acids (animal sources) milk, eggs, meat  
🗑
show deficient in one or more essential amino acid (vegetable proteins)  
🗑
High Lysine and low Arginine is used to deter   show
🗑
molecule that generates a second molecule   show
🗑
If asked the precursor to Epinephrine we would answer   show
🗑
show Glycine  
🗑
show Hydroxylysine; HYdroxyproline: Ornithine; Citrulline; Carnitine; Creatine; Taurine; Homocysteine; NME- amino acids  
🗑
show Hydroylysine and Hydroxyproline  
🗑
show NMe amino acids (N-Methyl Glycine is sarcosine)  
🗑
Non- standard amino acid; intermediates in the urea cycle   show
🗑
show Carnitine  
🗑
Non- standard amino acid; Arg+ Gly derivative; accepts and donates phosphate group that can supply ATP in active muscle   show
🗑
show Taurine  
🗑
show Homocysteine  
🗑
show Aspartame  
🗑
show Cystinuria; Cysteine is not soluble; causes kidney stones. Treatment= basifying urine (acitozolamide penicillin); conjugating the cystine with drugs and lots of water  
🗑
show Cystinosis; Cystine accumulates in lysosomes causing increased cell death rates and organ failure (1 in 100,000- 200,000)  
🗑
show Hartnup disease; (1 in 24,000) Prevents proper absorption/reabsorption of these amino acids including Tryptophan (precursor of Vit B6); results in niacin deficiency and PELLAGRA  
🗑

🗑
Phenylketonuria   show
🗑
Symptoms of PKU   show
🗑
what diet restriction allows normal growth for PKU?   show
🗑
show maple syrup urine disease;Mennonite families; treatment = dialysis B1 (thiamin) injections; diet low in leucine, isoleucine, valine  
🗑
lack of enzyme needed to metabolize tyrosine   show
🗑
show Hyperhomocysteinemia; elevated blood homocysteine- not currently true that B vitamins help and hyperhomocysteinemia is not correlated to heart disease  
🗑
show no answer  
🗑
the point of NO net charge   show
🗑
pH > pI means   show
🗑
show positive charge  
🗑

🗑
show there will be 4 forms; ex: A-, A, A+, A--; the 4th form will either be 2+ or 2-  
🗑
show If we are told the amino acid we will know whether it is positive or negative
