This document discusses enzyme regulation and the roles of cofactors and vitamins in enzyme function. It explains that enzymes are regulated through genetic control, covalent modification, and feedback inhibition. Coenzymes, which include vitamins and metal ions, are required for many enzyme reactions. Deficiencies in water-soluble vitamins can result since they are not stored, while fat-soluble vitamin excesses can be toxic. The roles of specific vitamins as coenzymes are outlined.

ATP synthase—also called FoF1 ATPase is the universal protein that terminates oxidative phosphorylation by synthesizing ATP from ADP and phosphate.
ATP Synthase is one of the most important enzymes found in the mitochondria of cells
Active sites of the enzyme is that point where substrate molecule bind for the chemical reaction. It is generally found on the surface of enzyme and in some enzyme it is a “Pit” like structure
The active site is a three-dimensional cleft formed by groups that come from different parts of the amino acid sequence
The active site takes up a relatively small part of the total volume of an enzyme
Active sites are clefts or crevices
Substrates are bound to enzymes by multiple weak attractions.
The specificity of binding depends on the precisely defined arrangement of atoms in an active site.
Pentose phosphate pathway is also called Hexose monophosphate pathway/ HMP shunt/ Phosphogluconate pathway.
It is an alternative route for the metabolism of glucose.
It is more complex pathway than glycolysis.
It is more anabolic in nature.
It takesplace in cytosol.
The tissues such as liver, adipose tissue, adrenal gland, erythrocytes,testes and lactating mammary gland are highly active in HMP shunt.
It concern with the biosynthesis of NADPH and pentoses.
Pentose phosphate pathway is an alternative pathway to glycolysis and TCA cycle for oxidation of glucose. It is a shunt of glycolysis. It is also known as hexose monophosphate (HMP) shunt or phosphogluconate pathway. It occurs in cytoplasm of both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. While it involves oxidation of glucose, its primary role is anabolic rather than catabolic. It is an important pathway that generates precursors for nucleotide synthesis and is especially important in red blood cells (erythrocytes).
Many enzymes exist as inactive forms known as zymogens or Proenzymes • proenzymes are synthesized as inactive precursors that are subsequently activated by cleavage of one or a few specific peptide bonds. • a energy source (ATP) is not needed for cleavage. contrast with reversible regulation by phosphorylation, even proteins located outside cells can be activated by this means. • Proteolytic activation, in contrast with allosteric control and reversible covalent modification, occurs just once in the life of an enzyme molecule i.e. the process is irreversible.
The flux of metabolites through metabolic pathways involves
catalysis by numerous enzymes. Active control of homeostasis is achieved by the regulation of only a small number of enzymes.

Enzymes are dynamic proteins that accelerate biochemical reactions.
Each enzyme acts on a specific reactant, the substrate.
Enzymes are characterized by greater activity, specificity and susceptibility to the influence of pH, temperature and other environmental changes.
Enzymes act in the presence of non-peptide cofactors or coenzymes.
An enzyme lacking its cofactor is called apoenzyme and the active enzyme with its co-factor, the holoenzyme.
Vitamins as coenzymes, different forms and deficiency disorders Lovnish Thakur
Vitamins are organic compounds which are needed in small quantities to sustain life.
Get from food, because the human body either does not produce enough of them, or none at all
Contains over 200 different compounds such as selenium, germanium, allicin, 17 amino acids, 33 organosulphur compounds, vitamin B1, B2, B3, C and more.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George
It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

For example, If some friends come together for dinner and if they want to divide the bill then it is possible by POS bill splitting. This slide will show how to split bills in odoo 17 POS.
2. Enzyme activity must be regulated so that the proper
levels of products are produced at all times and places
This control occurs in several ways:
- biosynthesis at the genetic level
- covalent modification after biosynthesis
- regulatory enzymes
- feedback inhibition
A common covalent enzyme modification is the addition
or removal of a phosphate group
- under high-energy conditions (high ATP and low
ADP), phosphorylation is favored
- under low-energy conditions (low ATP and high ADP),
dephosphorylation is favored
- this regulates the balance between biosynthesis and
catabolism
3. Zymogens (proenzymes) are inactive forms of enzymes
They are activated by removal of peptide sections
For example, proinsulin is converted to insulin by
removing a 33-amino acid peptide chain
4. Digestive enzymes are produced as zymogens, and
are then activated when needed
Most of them are synthesized and stored in the
pancreas, and then secreted into the small intestine,
where they are activated by removal of small peptide
sections
The digestive enzymes must be stored as zymogens
because otherwise they would damage the pancreas
5. An allosteric enzyme binds a regulator
molecule at a site other than the active site (an
allosteric site)
Regulators can be positive or negative:
- a positive regulator enhances the binding of
substrate and accelerates the rate of reaction.
- a negative regulator prevents the binding of
the substrate to the active site and slows down
the rate of reaction (non-competitive inhibition)
6. In feedback control, a product acts as a negative regulator
When product concentration is high, it binds to an
allosteric site on the first enzyme (E1) in the sequence, and
production is stopped
When product concentration is low, it dissociates from E1
and production is resumed
Feedback control allows products to be formed only when
needed
7. A simple enzyme consists only of protein in its active form
Other enzymes are active only when they combine with
cofactors such as metal ions or small molecules
- a cofactor that is a small organic molecule, such as a
vitamin, is called a coenzyme
8. Many enzymes require a metal ion to carry out catalysis
Metal ions in the active site are attached to one or more
amino acid side-chains
The metal ions have various functions, such as electron
exchange and substrate stabilization
9. A Zn2+
ion in the active site of carboxypeptidase A promotes
hydrolysis of a C-terminal amino acid from a polypeptide by
interacting with the carbonyl oxygen
The Zn2+
activates the carbonyl in a similar way as an acid catalyst
10. Coenzymes are small organic molecules that are often
required to prepare the active site for proper substrate
binding and/or participate in catalysis
Because they are not destroyed during the reaction,
coenzymes are only required in small quantities
11. Vitamins are organic molecules that are essential for
metabolism, but can not be biosynthesized; they must be
consumed in the diet
Many coenzymes come from water-soluble vitamins
Water soluble vitamins are not stored in the body, and so
should be consumed daily
12. Fat soluble vitamins are not used as coenzymes
However, they are important in vision, bone
formation, antioxidants, and blood clotting
Fat soluble vitamins are stored in the body, so
should not be consumed in excess, as they can be
toxic at high levels
13. Thiamin was the first B vitamin identified, and is part of the
coenzyme thiamin pyrophosphate (TPP)
TPP coenzyme is required by enzymes for decarboxylation of
α-keto carboxylic acids
A deficiency of thiamin results in beriberi (fatigue, weight
loss, and nerve degeneration)
Dietary sources include whole grains, milk products and
yeast
14. Riboflavin is made of the sugar alcohol ribitol and flavin
It is part of the coenzymes flavin adenine dinucleotide
(FAD) and flavin mononucleotide (FMN)

carbohydrates, proteins and fats
Riboflavin is needed for good vision and healthy skin,
and a deficiency can lead to cataracts and dermatitis
Dietary sources include green leafy vegetables, whole
grains, milk products, chicken, eggs and peanuts

A deficiency of pyridoxine may lead to dermatitis,
fatigue and anemia
Dietary sources include fish, meat, nuts, whole grains
and spinach
18. Cobalamin consists of
four pyrrole rings with a
Co2+
It is a coenzyme involved
in the transfer of methyl
groups, acetyl choline
synthesis and red blood
cell production
A deficiency in vitamin B12
can lead to pernicious
anemia and nerve damage
Dietary sources include
beef, chicken, fish and
milk products (strict
vegans should take B12
supplements)
19. Ascorbic acid is a very polar hydroxy ester that is a weak
acid
It is involved in the synthesis of hydroxyproline and
hydroxylysine, two modified amino acids that are required
for collagen synthesis

nucleic acids
A deficiency can lead to abnormal red blood cells, anemia,
poor growth, hair loss and depression
Dietary sources include green leafy vegetables, beans,
meat, seafood, yeast, asparagus and whole grains
Some derivatives of folic acid, such as methotrexate, are
inhibitors of the enzyme that converts folic acid to THF
- these are used as anti-cancer drugs, especially for
leukemias
21. Vitamin A can exist as an alcohol (retinol), an aldehyde
(retinal) or a carboxylic acid (retinoic acid)
In the retina of the eye, retinol undergoes cis-trans
isomeration as part of photoreception
Vitamin A is also involved in synthesis of RNA and
glycoproteins
A deficiency in vitamin A can lead to night blindness,
depressed immune response and growth inhibition
Dietary sources include yellow and green fruits and
vegetables
Beta-carotenes are converted to vitamin A in the liver
