Carbohydrates
This is the monomer for carbohydrates.
What is a monosaccharide?
What is the monomer for lipids?
What is a fatty acid?
The monomer of proteins
What are amino acids?
Monomer for DNA
What is a nucleotide>
T/F: When the noncompetitive inhibitor is attached to the enzyme, substrates still bind to the activation site
The process of taking carbohydrates apart to monosaccharides.
What is hydrolysis?
This functional group is unique to lipids.
What is a carboxyl group (COOH)?
What are peptide bonds?
Bond between bases
What are hydrogen bonds?
components of fatty acids
Carboxyl group and hydrocarbon tail
Three to ten monomers attached to each other.
What are oligosaccharides?
These are 2 solid fats
What is butter and margarine?
What is the activation site?
6 membered-ring nitrogenous bases
What are pyrimidines, Thymine, and Cytosine?
This attaches to the 1’ carbon of deoxyribose
What is a nitrogenous base?
The covalent bond that joins the two monosaccharides
What is a glycosidic linkage/bond?
Different types of lipid pairings. (6 types)
What are Fats/oils, Triglycerides, Phospholipids, Glycolipids, Steroids, Lipoproteins?
When enzyme slightly changes conformation to allow substrate attachment
What is induced fit?
Bond between nucleotides
What are phosphodiester bonds?
the amount of hydrogen bonds guanine forms
what are three hydrogen bonds?
A specific grouping of atoms in a molecule that determine the chemical behavior of a compound
What are functional groups?
All the parts of a phospholipid
What are saturated fatty acids, unsaturated fatty acids, phosphate, and glycerol?
This attaches to another site on an enzyme and stops reaction
Noncompetitive inhibitor
Chargaff’s rule details this rule of thumb
What are nitrogenous bases that have complementary base pairing?
a competitive inhibitor is the only inhibitor to do this
What is the only inhibitor/substrate attached to the enzyme?
