Enzymes
• substance that increase rates of a chemical reaction
• does not effect equilibrium• remain unchanged in overall process
• reactants bind to catalyst, products are released
Lock & Key – Fischer (1894)A proposal for ES
Induced Fit – Koshland (1963)A proposal for ES
Enzymes increase product formation by (1) lowering the energy barrier (activation energy) for the product to form (2) increases the favorable orientation of reactant molecules for product formation to be successful (stabilize transition state intermediate)
• Activation Energy (AE) – The energy require to reach transition state from ground state.
• AE barrier must be exceeded for reaction to proceed.
• Lower AE barrier, the more stable the transition state (TS)
• The higher [TS], the move likely the reaction will proceed.
Enzymatic Catalysis
S Ts P
Catalytic Power
• Enzymes can accelerate reactions as much as 1016 over uncatalyzed rates!
• Urease is a good example: – Catalyzed rate: 3x104/sec
– Uncatalyzed rate: 3x10 -10/sec
– Ratio is 1x1014 !
Specificity
• Enzymes selectively recognize proper substrates over other molecules
• Enzymes produce products in very high yields - often much greater than 95%
• Specificity is controlled by structure - the unique fit of substrate with enzyme controls the selectivity for substrate and the product yield
Classes of enzymes
1. Oxidoreductases = catalyze oxidation-reduction reactions
2. Transferases = catalyze transfer of functional groups from one molecule to another.
3. Hydrolases = catalyze hydrolytic cleavage
4. Lyases = catalyze removal of a group from or addition of a group to a double bond, or other cleavages involving electron rearrangement.
5. Isomerases = catalyze intramolecular rearrangement.
6. Ligases = catalyze reactions in which two molecules are joined.
Enzymes named for the substrates and type of reaction
Co-enzymes
• Non-protein molecules that help enzymes function
• Associate with active site of enzyme• Enzyme + Co-enzyme =
holoenzyme (conjugated enzyme )• Enzyme alone = apoenzyme• Organic co-enzymes – thiamin, riboflavin, nia
cin, biotin• Inorganic co-enzymes – Mg ++, Fe++, Zn++, Mn++
Increase in the hydrogen ion concentration(pH) considerably influences the enzyme activity

es reaction rate. • D) more than one correct response • E) no correct response
Mechanisms of Enzyme Action
Transition (TS) State Intermediate
• Transition state = unstable high-energy intermediate• Rate of reaction depends on the frequency at which reac
tants collide and form the TS • Reactants must be in the correct orientation and collide
with sufficient energy to form TS• Bonds are in the process of being formed and broken in
TS• Short lived (10–14 to 10-13 secs)
Intermediates• Intermediates are stabl
e.
• In reactions with intermediates, 2 TS’s are involved.
• The slowest step (rate determining) has the highest activation energy barrier.
• Formation of intermediate is the slowest step.
•Enzyme binding of substrates decrease activation energy by increasing the initial ground state (brings reactants into correct orientation)
•Need to stabilize TS to lower activation energy barrier.
The Transition State
Understand the difference between G and G‡
• The overall free energy change for a reaction is related to the equilibrium constant
• The free energy of activation for a reaction is related to the rate constant
Reaction Coordinate
Sample questions• A catalyst can promote product formation during a chemical reaction
by _____. • (a) lowering the activation energy barrier. • (b) stabilizing the transition state. • (c) positioning reactants in the correct orientation. • (d) bringing reactants together. • (e) all of the above
Which of the following is characteristic of an enzyme catalyst? • (a) It positions reactants in the correct orientation. • (b) It lowers the activation energy barrier. • (c) It binds the transition state tighter than the substrate. • (d) all of the above
ES complex must not be too stable
Raising the energy of ES will increase the catalyzed rate
•This is accomplished by loss of entropy due to formation of ES and destabilization of ES by
•strain
•distortion
•desolvation
Transition State Stabilization
Transition state analog
• Equilibrium between ES <-> TS, enzyme drives equilibrium towards TS
• Enzyme binds more tightly to TS than substrate
Mechanistic Strategies
Active Sites
• The active site of an enzyme represents as the small region at which the substrate (s) binds and participates in the catalysis
• The active site is made up of amino acids, known as catalytic residues
Polar AA Residues in Active Sites
Sample questions

o form a site for interactions with substrates • B) the catalyst interactions with the enzyme • C) catalyst molecules are generated • D) the substrate creates the catalyst molecules
An enzyme active site is the location in an enzyme where substrate molecules
• A) are generated. • B) become catalysts. • C) undergo change. • D) more than one correct response • E) no correct response

Oxidation reduction (Redox) reactions
• Loose e- = oxidation (LEO)
• Gain e- = reduction (GER)
• Central to energy production
• If something oxidized something must be reduced (reducing agent donates e- to oxidizing agent)
• Oxidations = removal of hydrogen or addition of oxygen or removal of e-
• In biological systems reducing agent is usually a co-factor (NADH of NADPH)
• Heterolytic vs homolytic cleavage• Carbanion formation (retains both e-)
R3-C-H R3-C:- + H+
• Carbocation formation (lose both e-) R3-C-H R3-C+ + H:-
• Free radical formation (lose single e-)R1-O-O-R2 R1-O* + *O-R2
Cleavage reactions
Hydride ion
• Accelerates reaction by catalytic transfer of a proton• Involves AA residues that can accept a proton• Can remove proton from –OH, -NH, -CH, or –XH• Creates a strong nucleophillic reactant (i.e. X:-)

Covalent Catalysis• 20% of all enzymes employ covalent catalysis
A-X + B + E <-> BX + E + A
• A group from a substrate binds covalently to enzyme
(A-X + E <-> A + X-E)
• The intermediate enzyme substrate complex (A-X) then donates the group (X) to a second substrate (B) (B + X-E <-> B-X + E)
Covalent Catalysis
Protein Kinases
ATP + E + Protein <-> ADP + E + Protein-P
1) A-P-P-P(ATP) + E-OH <-> A-P-P (ADP) + E-O-PO4-
2) E-O-PO4- + Protein-OH <-> E + Protein-O- PO4
