Catabolism of tissue protein ,Protein degradation ط Essential and nonessential amino acids ط Protein turnover in a regular manner , Apoptosis ط Nitrogen balance , positive and negative nitrogen balance, causes D4 446 -48
Introduction • · Nitrogen (N2) exists in the atmosphere: • 1. fig11.1, nitrogen in air (NO2–) == reduced by microorganisms ==> air (NO3–) • 2. air (NO3–) == incorporated into AAs/prt ==> plant/animal (NH3) • · Table 11.1, Most AAs obtained from diet (essential) and the body can synth others (non-essential)
Nitrogen (N2) Balance • Incorporation of nitrogen (N2) into AAs gives a dietary balance if enters the human body: • 1. Balanced N2 (body): excretion of excess N2 & N2 of prt turnover (synth:deg) • 2. Negative N2 balance: increase excretion of N2 as urea when C is needed for gluconeogenesis during: • Starvation • Poor essential AA (EAA) diet intake • Certain diseases • 3. Positive N2 balance: decrease excretion of N2 and incorporation into prt during: • Growing children (cys & arg are NEAA in childhood) • Pregnancy • Re-feeding after starvation
Protein Degradation • 1. In a regular basis (apoptosis): • protein is degraded continuously (NEAA biosynth) • Apoptosis (planned cell death) during regular turnover of prt (synth:deg) • a) INS ½-life – 1 hr • b) Hb ½-life – months • c) Majority of prts have ½-life of days • Selection occur by marking with Ubiquitin (oligopeptide, 76 A groups) • a) Lysosomal, Ca++-dependant Enz process • b) Non-lysosomal, ATP-dependant 3 Enz-complex process
Protein Degradation • 2. fig11.20, When energy is needed (proteolysis): • Proteolysis (prt deg) is a respond to starvation, trauma, burns, septicaemia cachexia (tumor) & acidosis • Majority of prts in muscle, and most AAs in muscle are BC-AA (val, leu, ile) • First step is transamination (aminotrasnferase, A T-ase) • a) Amino Acid GltDH (α-KG => Glt) Keto Acid (C is needed for energy) • b) Glt Glt-ase (+NH4+) Gln (transport N2 to liver for urea synth) • c) pyr Ala T-ase (Glt => α-KG) ala (to liver for urea synth / gluconeogenesis) • Amino group “NH3“ (Gln, urea) to kidney (urea / ammonia excretion) • * in cachexia, there is high glucagon secretion causing wasting of plasma AA (low) due to increase uptake by liver and secretion by kidney. This leads to further protein breakdown from muscle (protolysis) to compensate plasma AA • * in acidosis, high pH shunts Gln from liver to kidney to conserve bicarbonate (HCO3–) for formation of urea
Some important protein reactions ط Transamination reactions, mechanism of actin of transaminases , Pyridoxal phosphate as cofactor ط Degradation and transport of tissue protein D4 449 -52
Amino Reactions • a) Transamination: transfer 1 amino group from an AA to another AA • fig11.4, NEAA: Ala (NH3) + α-KG Amino transferase Pyr + Glt (NH3) • Pyr to TCA cycle, Glt to urea cycle – reversal: Ala to prt synth (if not met by diet) • fig11.5, EAA: Val (NH3) + α-KG Amino transferase α-KIV+ Glt (NH3) • α-KIV to SCoA – reversal only during α-KIV drug therapy • b) Coupled Transamination • fig11.6, • Ala (NH3) + α-KG Amino transferase Pyr + Glt (NH3) • Glt (NH3) + OA Amino transferase α-KG + Asp (NH3)
Pyridoxal Phosphate * fig11.7, PyPh (Vit B6) is a cofactor for amino transferases fig11.8, example: PyPh attach to Lys active site by Schiff base (ionic/hydrophobic bond) fig11.9, different forms of PyPh (Asp & Glt transamination) fig11.10, carboxyl & hydroxyl groups (PyPh-dependent) can be eliminated, other than amino group * Thr & Lys do not use transamination
Ammonia Production • a) fig11.11, α-Keto/Amino Acid Cycle • α-KG GltDH (–NH4+/NADPH) Glt • fig11.13, ammonia incorporation is stimulated by ATP/GTP • Glt GltDH (+NH4+/NADH) α-KG • fig11.13, ammonia release is stimulated by ADP/GDP • b) fig11.14 – 11.15, Glutamine Cycle • Glt Glt Synthetase (–NH4+/ATP) Gln (carrier of ammonia) • Gln Glt-ase (+NH4+) Glt (ammonia released)
Ammonia Production • Release of Amonia by Other Reactions • c) fig11.19, Oxidative Deamination (L-AA) • α-Amino Acid AA Oxidase (–FMN/ +H2O2) α-Imino Acid Deamination (+NH3) α-Keto Acid • D-AA oxidase by intestinal bacteria • d) fig, Non Oxidative Deamination • Serine Ser DH è a-Imino Acid Deamination (+NH3) Pyruvic Acid • e) fig, Amino Desulfhydration • Cystein è Cys DS a-Imino Acid Deamination (+NH3) Pyruvic Acid • f) fig, Amino Decarboxylation • · Histidine His Decarboxylase (–CO2) Histamine • · Serine Ser Decarboxylase (–CO2) Ethanolamine • * Ammonia released in kidney excreted • * Ammonia released in liver used to produce urea
