4 What do you really see here?

5 What are actually there? Composition? Membrane protein? Structural protein? Antibody? Transcription factor? Muscle? Chemicalreaction? Enzyme? Hormone? Receptor? Collagen? Metabolism? Ammonia & Urea?

6 What do you know about Protein and Amino acid? What are amino acids, peptide, polypeptide, protein? Where / How are they from / formed? What are major roles of them? What are their function? What force/bond make them? What are the differences, properties? What happen when them go wrong? When? Why? Help me!! How?

7 Amino acids and proteins Amino acids Amino acids are molecules containing an amine group, a carboxylic acid group, and a side-chain that is specific to each amino acid. The key elements of an amino acid are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, serve as the building blocks of proteins. Proteins (3D polypeptide) Proteins are biochemical compounds consisting of one or more polypeptides, which are short polymers of amino acid monomers linked by peptide bonds, typically folded into a globular or fibrous form, facilitating a biological function. Amino acid 1 Polypeptides Protein (Triose phosphate isomerase) 2 3

8 How many amino acids are there? n 20 amino acids are commonly found in human, called Proteinogenic or Standard amino acid 9 Essential amino acids 11 Nonessential amino acids What are they? Why?

9 What should you know about amino acid? Catabolism? Chemical bonds? Polarity? MW? n Structures? Electric charges? Optical isomer? Elements? Chiral center? Solubility? Ionization? Essential? Ketogenic or Glucogenic? Acidity? Melting temperature? Name & symbol? Functional groups? How many of them? Zwitterions? Biosynthesis?

10 Tetrahedral Isomerism Stereoisomers / Optical isomers / Enantiomers R R - Two optical isomer D (Right hand) and L (Left hand) amino acid (Except Glycine, R = H) - All proteinogenic amino acids are L-form. - Some D-amino acids can be found in some sea animla such as cone snail) or at cell wall of bacteria

11 Essential amino acids: Amino acids that animal cannot synthesize. Non-essential amino acids: Amino acids that animal can synthesize. Selenocysteine 21 st amino acid Pyrrolysine 22 nd amino acid Essential Nonessential Histidine Alanine Isolucine Arginine* Leucine Asparagine* Lysine Aspartate Methionine Cysteine Phenylalanine Glutamate Threonine Glutamine* Tryptophan Glycine* Valine Proline* Serine* Tyrosine* * Conditionally Essential Essential amino acids differ in animals.

24 Fluorescent Characteristics of the Aromatic amino Acids

25 Roles of amino acids and its derivative Properties of amino acids depend on R (side chain) Function of standard amino acid - Building block of protein - Energy source (if necessary) - Precursor for Fatty acids synthesis (when excess) Non protein function of amino acids Derivative of amino acids

26 Non protein function of amino acids Tryptophan is a precursor of the neurotransmitter serotonin. Tyrosine (and its precursor phenylalanine) are precursors of the catecholamine neurotransmitters dopamine, epinephrine and norepinephrine. Glycine is a precursor of porphyrins such as heme. Arginine is a precursor of nitric oxide. Ornithine and S-adenosylmethionine are precursors of polyamines. Aspartate, glycine, and glutamine are precursors of nucleotides. Phenylalanine is a precursor of various phenylpropanoids, which are important in plant metabolism.

27 Derivative of amino acids β -aminobutyric acid (GABA) Neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid is the chief inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system. It plays a role in regulating neuronal excitability throughout the nervous system. Brain development Beyond the nervous system including but not restrict to the intestine, stomach, pancreas, Fallopian tube, uterus, ovary, testis, kidney, urinary bladder, lung, and liver.

28 Derivative of amino acids Desmosine

29 Derivative of amino acids Thyroxine -alanine Homoserine Ornithine Homocysteine Statine

30 Derivative of amino acids Epinephrine Penicillamine Carnitine 5-hydroxylysine -Aminoadipic acid -carboxyglutamic acid

35 Interesting information about amino acid Post-translation modification - Glucoxylation: Aspartic acid, Serine, Threnine - Carboxylation: Glutamic acid - Hydroxylation: Lysine, Proline - Sulfonation: Tyrosine - Methylation: Lysine - Phosphorylation: Serine, Threonine or Tyrosine residues (mostly in eukaryotes) Aspartic acid, Hstidine residues (mostly in prokaryotes).
