General Reactions involved in amino acid metabolismDhiraj Trivedi
1. The document discusses various reactions involved in amino acid metabolism including deamination, desulfuration, transamination, and transmethylation.
2. Deamination is the removal of the amino group from an amino acid, which can occur oxidatively or non-oxidatively. Oxidative deamination uses amino acid oxidases and releases ammonia and hydrogen peroxide.
3. Transamination is the reversible transfer of the amino group between amino acids and alpha-keto acids, producing new amino acids and keto acids. It requires pyridoxal phosphate and does not release free ammonia.
The document summarizes the biosynthesis and metabolism of purines. It describes that purines are heterocyclic compounds consisting of two rings and are widely found in nature. There are two pathways for purine nucleotide synthesis - de novo synthesis which builds nucleotides from simple precursors, and the salvage pathway which recovers bases from degraded DNA and RNA. The de novo synthesis involves multiple steps using compounds from amino acids, formate, glycine and bicarbonate. Disorders of purine metabolism can cause hyperuricemia and gout due to deposition of urate crystals in joints. Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by excessive uric acid production and self-mutilating behavior.
This document summarizes amino acid metabolism and related metabolic disorders. It discusses the general reactions of amino acid metabolism including transamination, deamination, and decarboxylation. It also describes the urea cycle, disorders of the urea cycle, and catabolism of phenylalanine, tyrosine, and their related metabolic disorders like phenylketonuria and albinism. Additionally, it discusses the catabolism of heme, hyperbilirubinemia, and the synthesis and roles of serotonin, melatonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, and adrenaline.
Therapeutic and diagnostic applications of enzymes isozymes and coenzymesShubhrat Maheshwari
This document discusses therapeutic and diagnostic applications of enzymes, isoenzymes, and coenzymes. It provides examples of how enzymes are used therapeutically to aid digestion, act as anti-clotting agents, and treat various conditions. It also discusses how enzymes are used diagnostically to detect levels of substances like glucose, liver enzymes, and more. The document then explains isoenzymes and provides an example of lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes. Finally, it discusses several important coenzymes like NAD, FAD, biotin, vitamin B12 and their roles in biochemical reactions and maintaining health.
Enzymes are biological catalysts that are proteins which accelerate biochemical reactions in living organisms. They were discovered in yeast and are highly specific. Enzymes differ from chemical catalysts in having higher reaction rates under milder conditions and greater substrate specificity. The first enzyme was isolated from jack beans in 1926. Most enzymes are proteins, but some are RNA molecules. Enzymes can exist as single or multiple polypeptide chains and require cofactors like metal ions for activity. The active site is the region where substrates bind for catalysis. Many factors like temperature, pH, and product concentration influence an enzyme's activity rate.
Amino acid metabolism involves several key reactions: transamination, deamination, and the urea cycle. Transamination is the transfer of amino groups between amino acids via pyridoxal phosphate. Deamination removes amino groups via oxidative or non-oxidative pathways, producing ammonia. The liver's urea cycle converts ammonia into urea for excretion to detoxify ammonia. Disorders of the urea cycle can cause high ammonia levels and neurological issues if not treated. Amino acids undergo breakdown and synthesis to form proteins, peptides, and other nitrogenous compounds essential for cellular metabolism and function.

Deamination and decarboxylation are processes that break down amino acids. Deamination removes an amine group from an amino acid, releasing ammonia. There are two types of deamination - oxidative deamination uses oxidation to remove the amine group, while non-oxidative uses other reactions. Decarboxylation removes a carboxyl group from an amino acid, releasing carbon dioxide. Both processes help convert excess amino acids into usable byproducts that can be removed from the body.

THIS SLIDE CONTAIN ABOUT QUALITATIVE TEST, STRUCTURE AND USES OF DIFFERENT CARBONYL COMPOUNDS LIKE FORMALDEHYDE, PARALDEHYDE, ACETONE, CHLORAL HYDRATE, HEXAMINE, BENZALDEHYDE, VANILIN AND CINNAMALDEHYDE
The document discusses several inborn errors of amino acid metabolism including phenylketonuria (PKU), tyrosinemia, alkaptonuria, and albinism. PKU is caused by a deficiency of phenylalanine hydroxylase leading to accumulation of phenylalanine. Tyrosinemia results from defects in tyrosine catabolism. Alkaptonuria is caused by homogentisate oxidase deficiency leading to deposition of homogentisate pigments. Albinism is due to lack of tyrosinase resulting in absent melanin synthesis. These disorders are diagnosed by detecting abnormal metabolites in urine and treated with dietary modifications and supplements.
Tryptophan is first hydroxylated to form 5-OH-tryptophan in liver. The reaction is analogous to conversion of Phe - to tyrosine. Liver phenyl alanine hydroxylase also can catalyse hydroxylation of tryptophan. In the next step, 5-OH-tryptophan is decarboxylated, by the enzyme 5-OH-tryptophan decarboxylase, in presence of B6-PO4 to form 5-hydroxy tryptamine (5-HT), also called serotonin. The enzyme is present in kidney, liver and stomach. Aromatic-Lamino acid decarboxylase, widely distributed in tissues can also catalyse this reaction.
Pawde Laxman presents on the catabolism of purine nucleotides. Purines are broken down through multiple steps into uric acid by enzymes like xanthine oxidase. Uric acid is then excreted. Disorders can occur if uric acid levels become too high, such as gout which causes painful joint inflammation and hyperuricemia. Gout treatment focuses on reducing uric acid through drugs inhibiting xanthine oxidase and dietary changes while anti-inflammatory drugs help gout symptoms.
The document summarizes palmitate synthesis from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA. Specifically, it notes that palmitate synthesis requires 8 acetyl-CoA molecules, 7 ATP molecules, 14 NADPH molecules, and 14 hydrogen ions to produce palmitate, 8 CoA molecules, 7 ADP molecules, 7 phosphate ions, and 6 water molecules. It further explains that in palmitate, only 2 carbon atoms come from acetyl-CoA, while the remaining 14 carbon atoms are from malonyl-CoA, which is produced from acetyl-CoA.
Decarboxylation is the reaction by which CO2 is removed from the COOH group of an amino acid as a result an amine is formed. The reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme decarboxylase, which requires pyridoxal-P (B6-PO4) as coenzyme. Tissues like liver, kidney, brain possess the enzyme decarboxylase and also by microorganisms of intestinal tract. The enzyme removes CO2 from COOH and converts the amino acid to corresponding amine.
Phenylalanine is an essential, aromatic amino acid. The need for phenylalanine becomes minimal, if adequate tyrosine is supplied in the food. This is called the sparing action of tyrosine on phenylalanine.
Tyrosine is an aromatic amino acid. It is synthesized from phenylalanine, and so is a non-essential amino acid. The need for phenylalanine becomes minimal, if adequate tyrosine is supplied in the food. This is called the sparing action of tyrosine on the phenylalanine.
Seven amino acids produce acetyl CoA or acetoacetate and therefore are categorized as ketogenic. Of these, isoleucine, threonine, and the aromatic amino acids (phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan) are converted to compounds that produce both glucose and acetyl CoA or acetoacetate. Leucine and lysine do not produce glucose; they produce acetyl CoA and acetoacetate.
The name phenylketonuria is coined due to the fact that the metabolite phenylpyruvate is a keto acid (C6H5CH2−CO−COO−) excreted in urine in high amounts.
Phenylalanine cannot be converted to tyrosine. So, phenylalanine accumulates. Phenylalanine level in blood is elevated.
The document discusses the role of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in the kidney. RAS is a protein system where the enzyme renin is produced in the kidney and converts angiotensinogen into angiotensin II. Angiotensin II then works as a hormone to increase blood pressure and sodium and water reabsorption in the blood, helping to regulate blood pressure and electrolyte balance.

Purine is synthesized through a multi-step, enzyme-catalyzed biosynthetic process that occurs via two main pathways: de novo synthesis and salvage pathways. De novo synthesis involves building purines from simple precursor molecules, while salvage pathways recover purines formed during RNA and DNA degradation. The major sites for purine synthesis are the liver, while erythrocytes and brain cannot produce purines. The process utilizes metabolic pathways and involves the conversion of substrates like phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate into more complex products like adenosine monophosphate, guanosine monophosphate, and inosine monophosphate.
This seminar presentation discusses the structure and function of coenzymes. Coenzymes are small organic molecules that bind to enzymes to help catalyze reactions. Many B vitamins act as coenzymes, facilitating the transfer of atoms between molecules during metabolism. Coenzymes bind to enzymes before other substrates and participate in redox, energy production, and transferring reactions. Deficiencies of certain coenzymes like niacin, riboflavin, pantothenic acid and vitamin B12 can cause diseases such as pellagra and megaloblastic anemia.
Tetra substituted alkenes are the most stable, followed by tri, di, and mono substituted alkenes. Within di-substituted alkenes, the trans isomer is more stable than the cis isomer due to less steric hindrance. The degree of stability is directly proportional to the amount of conjugation and substitution on the alkene. Heat of hydrogenation can be used to determine the relative stability and energy of alkene isomers, with less stable isomers requiring more energy for hydrogenation. For example, cis-2-butene requires more energy than trans-2-butene during hydrogenation.
1) Amines act as bases according to both Lewis and Bronsted-Lowry theories due to their ability to donate a lone pair of electrons or accept a proton.
2) The basicity of amines depends on factors such as the stability of the conjugate acid formed, inductive effects, and hydrogen bonding capabilities. In general, aliphatic amines are stronger bases than aromatic amines.
3) Within aliphatic amines, the order of basicity from strongest to weakest is typically tertiary > secondary > primary > ammonia in the gas phase. In aqueous solution, primary amines are stronger bases due to hydrogen bonding of the conjugate acid form.

introduction of Purine and Pyrimidine metabolism, biosynthesis and degradation of nucleotides, biological functions and metabolic disorders, chemical analogues and therapeutic drugs, uric acid metabolism
This document discusses purine metabolism and disorders related to purine and uric acid levels. It begins by outlining the catabolic pathway of purine nucleotides to uric acid. It then describes hyperuricemia and gout disease, which results from uric acid crystal deposition due to high uric acid levels. The document outlines the causes of primary gout, which is mainly due to overproduction of uric acid, and secondary gout, which can result from increased nucleic acid turnover or reduced uric acid excretion. Treatment options for gout including diet, medications like allopurinol and colchicine, and other disorders related to purine metabolism like Lesch-Nyhan syndrome are also summarized.
- Purines are synthesized through de novo and salvage pathways. The de novo pathway involves 10 steps that use PRPP to synthesize IMP from simple precursors like glycine and aspartate. IMP is then converted to AMP and GMP.
- The salvage pathway recycles purine bases released from nucleic acid breakdown to form nucleotides. It requires less energy than de novo synthesis.
- Uric acid is the end product of purine degradation in humans. Elevated uric acid can cause gout if crystals form in the joints. Gout is treated through diet, drugs like allopurinol, and NSAIDs.
The document summarizes purine metabolism in humans. Uric acid is the end product of purine metabolism and is produced through multiple steps starting from nucleotides. It is produced in the liver and excreted in urine. Abnormalities in purine metabolism can cause hyperuricemia and gout due to deposition of urate crystals. Several genetic disorders such as HGPRT deficiency (Lesch-Nyhan syndrome) are also discussed that affect purine metabolism.
Lecture 3. Metabolism of purines & pyrimidines 20 Aug 21.pptDr Vishnu Kumar
This document discusses nucleotide metabolism, including purine and pyrimidine metabolism. It describes the de novo and salvage pathways for purine synthesis, key enzymes such as HGPRT, and inhibitors. Purine degradation to uric acid is also covered. Disorders of purine metabolism that can cause hyperuricemia and gout or hypouricemia are summarized. The de novo pathway and reactions for pyrimidine synthesis are outlined, as well as pyrimidine degradation. Disorders of pyrimidine metabolism like orotic acidurias are also mentioned.
The document discusses nucleotide metabolism. It describes that nucleotides consist of a nitrogenous base, pentose sugar, and phosphate. The pentose is D-ribose in RNA and 2-deoxy D-ribose in DNA. Nucleotides are components of nucleic acids and involved in metabolic reactions. It provides details on the de novo biosynthesis of purines and pyrimidines, which both start with ribose-5-phosphate and involve multiple enzymatic steps to form the nucleotide precursors IMP and UMP. Salvage pathways are also discussed which allow recycling of purine and pyrimidine bases.
1) Purine degradation is a series of reactions that breaks down purine nucleotides into uric acid, the final waste product excreted by humans.
2) Key steps include converting nucleotides to nucleosides and bases, and oxidizing hypoxanthine and xanthine to uric acid by xanthine oxidase.
3) Disorders can cause hyperuricemia and conditions like gout due to uric acid crystal deposition in joints. Gout is treated through drugs like allopurinol and dietary changes.
Glycolysis, ATP Calculation and Regulation.pptxDr Umar Hamid
This document discusses glycolysis, including its reactions, ATP calculation, regulation, and clinical importance. It provides an overview of the four stages of glycolysis (preparatory, splitting, energy-yielding, and recovery), describing the key reactions in each stage. It explains that glycolysis can occur aerobically or anaerobically, and calculates the net ATP production in each case. Regulation of glycolysis is achieved through induction/repression of enzymes, reversible phosphorylation, and allosteric modification of phosphofructokinase-1. Sodium fluoride is also discussed as important for blood glucose testing.
The document discusses purine catabolism and gout. It notes that the end product of purine catabolism in humans is uric acid. Hyperuricemia occurs when uric acid levels are above normal limits and can lead to gout. Gout is characterized by sudden, severe attacks of pain and inflammation in joints, especially those of the big toes, due to the formation of urate crystals in the joints. The treatment of gout involves reducing purine intake, medications to reduce inflammation and uric acid levels such as allopurinol, and drugs that increase uric acid excretion from the body like probenecid.
This document summarizes purine biosynthesis and degradation. Purine is synthesized through an 11 step pathway forming IMP, the parent nucleotide. IMP is then used to synthesize AMP and GMP. Purines are broken down to uric acid through a multi-step process. Gout is caused by excessive uric acid formation due to increased purine biosynthesis or decreased excretion leading to uric acid crystal deposition in joints.
This document outlines key hormones that regulate metabolic homeostasis, including insulin, glucagon, epinephrine, and cortisol. It describes their structure, biosynthesis, mechanisms of action, and metabolic effects. Insulin promotes anabolism and lowers blood glucose levels, while glucagon, epinephrine, and cortisol have catabolic effects and increase blood glucose as counterregulatory hormones opposed to insulin. Precise regulation of these hormones maintains stable blood glucose levels and fuels metabolism.
Microsomal enzymes like cytochrome P450 and UDP glucoronosyl transferases are important for drug metabolism in the liver and other tissues. Cytochrome P450 enzymes catalyze oxidation, reduction, and other phase I reactions. UDP glucoronosyl transferases catalyze phase II conjugation reactions like glucoronidation. Drug metabolism can be induced or inhibited by other drugs and environmental factors, leading to potential drug-drug interactions. A better understanding of an individual's genetic polymorphisms and environmental factors can help optimize drug therapy and avoid adverse reactions.
The pentose phosphate pathway generates NADPH and ribose-5-phosphate. It consists of oxidative and nonoxidative phases. The oxidative phase generates NADPH through glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in an irreversible reaction. No ATP is directly produced or consumed. The nonoxidative phase rearranges carbon atoms through transketolase and transaldolase, linking back to glycolysis. NADPH is used for biosynthesis like fatty acids and glutathione regeneration, while ribose-5-phosphate is used for nucleotides. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase regulates flux and is feedback inhibited by NADPH. Deficiencies can cause hemolytic anemia upon exposure to oxidizing drugs or foods like f
Gout is a metabolic disorder caused by elevated levels of uric acid in the blood (hyperuricemia). Uric acid crystallizes and deposits in joints, causing sudden and severe attacks of arthritis. Gout can be primary, due to overproduction of uric acid, or secondary, due to other conditions that reduce excretion or increase production of uric acid. Treatment involves medications to reduce uric acid levels such as allopurinol and probenecid, as well as lifestyle changes like a low-purine diet and increased fluid intake. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and corticosteroids are used to treat acute gout attacks and bring down joint inflammation.
Nucleotides play important roles in energy storage, cell signaling, and as monomers for nucleic acids. Organisms synthesize purine and pyrimidine nucleotides through de novo and salvage pathways. Degradation of nucleic acids releases bases and nucleosides that can be reused through salvage pathways. Errors in purine metabolism can lead to disorders like gout, caused by uric acid crystal accumulation from excessive purine breakdown. Lesch-Nyhan syndrome results from HGPRT deficiency, causing excess purine synthesis and uric acid production as well as neurological issues. Some forms of severe combined immune deficiency occur due to lack of enzymes like ADA or PNP, resulting in nucleotide accumulation that inhibits DNA replication in lymphocytes.
1. The document discusses the metabolism of purine and pyrimidine nucleotides, including their biosynthesis, degradation, and disorders related to purine metabolism such as gout and Lesch-Nyhan syndrome.
2. Purine nucleotides are synthesized through both a de novo synthesis pathway that builds the purine ring from simple precursors, and a salvage pathway that recycles purine bases. A key early intermediate is IMP, which is converted to AMP and GMP.
3. Uric acid is the final product of purine degradation in humans and high levels can cause gout. Lesch-Nyhan syndrome results from HGPRT deficiency disrupting the salvage pathway.
Uric acid is produced from the catabolism of purines and dietary nucleic acids. It exists mainly as monosodium urate in the body. Hyperuricemia occurs when serum uric acid levels are above 7 mg/dL in men and 6 mg/dL in women and can lead to gout if urate crystals deposit in joints. Uric acid is filtered by the kidneys and mostly reabsorbed, with 6-12% excreted in urine. The uricase method is commonly used to measure uric acid levels in serum and urine and involves the enzymatic conversion of uric acid to allantoin and hydrogen peroxide.
The document summarizes purine and pyrimidine metabolism. It discusses how nucleotides are essential for DNA/RNA synthesis and energy transfer. Nucleotides are synthesized through de novo and salvage pathways. De novo synthesis occurs mainly in the liver while salvage pathways recycle purines and pyrimidines from endogenous sources. Certain genetic defects like Lesch-Nyhan disease result from deficiencies in salvage enzymes and cause issues like hyperuricemia and neurological deterioration.
This document summarizes biologically important nucleotides and their functions. It discusses the composition of nucleotides and their roles in DNA, RNA, and various biochemical functions. Specific nucleotides are described, including adenosine nucleotides (ATP, ADP, AMP, cAMP), guanosine nucleotides (GTP, GDP, GMP, cGMP), uridine nucleotides (UTP, UDP, UMP, UDP-G), and cytidine nucleotides (CTP, CDP, CMP). It also discusses purine and pyrimidine metabolism, including biosynthesis, degradation, salvage pathways, and disorders like hyperuricemia, gout, and Lesch-Nyhan syndrome.

The citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle) is the most important metabolic pathway for energy supply in the body. It involves the oxidation of acetyl CoA to carbon dioxide and water, generating reduced coenzymes that are used to produce approximately two-thirds of the body's ATP through oxidative phosphorylation. Regulation of the cycle occurs through three rate-limiting enzymes that are inhibited by high levels of ATP, NADH, and other cycle intermediates.
Metabolism involves chemical reactions that occur in living systems. Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose to produce energy in the form of ATP. It occurs in 10 steps, with 3 stages: energy investment, splitting of glucose, and energy generation. Glycolysis produces 2 ATP per glucose molecule under anaerobic conditions, and up to 8 ATP under aerobic conditions when the electron transport chain is involved. Key enzymes that regulate glycolysis include hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, and pyruvate kinase.

itself to Allantoin.itself to Allantoin.
• Antioxidant role of ascorbic acid in primates is
replaced by uric acid, since these animals have
lost the ability to synthesize ascorbic acid.
10. Hyperuricemia and Gout disease
• Uric acid normal concentration in the serum of adults is
in the range of 3-7 mg/dl.
• The daily excretion of uric acid is about 500-700 mg.
• Hyperuricemia refers to an elevation in the serum uric• Hyperuricemia refers to an elevation in the serum uric
acid concentration, sometimes associated with increased
uric acid excretion (uricosuria).
• Gout is a metabolic disease associated with
overproduction of uric acid.
12. Primary Gout
Inborn error of metabolism due to overproduction of uric acid,
mostly related to increased synthesis of purine nucleotides.
The following are the important metabolic defects (enzymes)
associated with primary gout:
● PRPP synthetase : PRPP synthetase is under feedback control by● PRPP synthetase : PRPP synthetase is under feedback control by
purine nucleotides (ADP and GDP). But variant forms of PRPP
synthetase, (not subjected to feedback regulation) have been
detected. This leads to the increased production of purines.
● PRPP glutamylamidotransferase : The lack of feedback control
of this enzyme by purine nucleotides also leads to their
elevated synthesis.
13. HGPRT deficiency : This is an enzyme of purine salvage
pathway, and its defect causes Lesch-Nyhan syndrome.
• This disorder is associated with increased synthesis of
purine nucleotides by a two-fold mechanism.
– Decreased utilization of purines (hypoxanthine and
guanine) by salvage pathway, resulting in the accumulationguanine) by salvage pathway, resulting in the accumulation
and diversion of PRPP for purine nucleotides.
– Secondly, the defect in salvage pathway leads to decreased
levels of IMP and GMP causing impairment in the tightly
controlled feedback regulation of their production.
14. ● Glucose 6-phosphatase deficiency : Due to the
deficiency of glucose 6-phosphatase, glucose 6-
phosphate cannot be converted to glucose in type I
glycogen storage disease (von Gierke’s).
This leads to the increased utilization of glucose 6-
phosphate by HMP shunt, resulting in elevated levels
of ribose 5-phosphate and PRPP and, ultimately, purineof ribose 5-phosphate and PRPP and, ultimately, purine
overproduction.
In von Gierke’s disease there is increased activity of
glycolysis. Due to this, lactic acid is accumulated in the
body interfering the uric acid excretion.
15. • Elevation of glutathione reductase : Increased
glutathione reductase generates more NADP+
which is utilized by HMP shunt. This causes
increased ribose 5-phosphate and PRPP
synthesis.synthesis.
16. Secondary gout
Secondary hyperuricemia is due to various diseases
causing increased synthesis or decreased excretion of
uric acid.
Increased degradation of nucleic acids (hence more uric
acid formation) is observed in various cancers, psoriasis
Increased degradation of nucleic acids (hence more uric
acid formation) is observed in various cancers, psoriasis
