1 How do scientists identify the connections in a metabolic pathway? Arginine synthesis
2 What are the possible metabolic pathways that could convert the precursor molecule into arginine? Enzyme #1 citrulline Precursor molecule (starting molecule) Enzyme #2 ornithine Enzyme #3 Arginine (ending molecule) One possible hypothesis
3 What are the possible metabolic pathways that could convert the precursor molecule into arginine? Precursor molecule (starting molecule) Enzyme #1 citrulline Enzyme #2 ornithine Enzyme #3 Arginine (ending molecule) Another possible hypothesis
4 Two different hypotheses for the arginine metabolic pathway Hypothesis A Precursor Enzyme 1 Citrulline Enzyme 2 Ornithine Enzyme 3 and Other enzymes Arginine Hypothesis B Precursor Ornithine Citrulline Enzyme 1 Enzyme 2 Enzyme 3 and Other enzymes Arginine
5 Determining the arginine pathway Arginine is an amino acid required for Neurospora (bread mold) to survive Normal (wild type) Neurospora can make arginine using other metabolites and enzymes in a metabolic pathway Strains of Neurospora which are missing enzymes in the metabolic pathway can obtain arginine and other metabolites from their growth media and environment
6 Experimental description Four strains of Neurospora (bread mold) were used: The wild type strain has all 3 functional enzymes in the arginine pathway The other strains are each missing a different enzyme in the arginine pathway Strains of Neurospora: Missing enzyme 1 Missing enzyme 2 Missing enzyme 3 Normal (wild type)
7 Experimental description Each of the Neurospora strains were grown in four different conditions*: Growth Medias: precursor only Ornithine only Citrulline only Arginine only *All of the media had the same sugars and salts but no additional amino acids
8 Experimental description Neurospora cultures will grow if arginine is provided in the media or if they are able to make arginine from other molecules in the media Possible results: OR Growth (+) No growth (-)(
9 Experimental description Growth Medias: precursor only Ornithine only Citrulline only Arginine only Strains of Neurospora: Missing enzyme 1 Missing enzyme 2 Missing enzyme 3 Normal (wild type) Possible results: OR Growth (+) No growth (-)(
10 Consider this example Metabolite A Transport Outside of the cell Inside of the cell Metabolite A Metabolite B Metabolite C Enzyme X Enzyme Y Metabolite C is required for survival Metabolite A is obtained from the environment and transported into the cell A metabolic pathway converts A into C
11 Consider this example Metabolite A Transport Outside of the cell Inside of the cell X Metabolite A Metabolite B Metabolite C Enzyme X Enzyme Y If enzyme X is missing, and only metabolite A is provided, the organism CANNOT survive
12 Consider this example Outside of the cell Inside of the cell Metabolite C X Metabolite A Metabolite B Metabolite C Enzyme X Enzyme Y If enzyme X is missing, and metabolite C is provided, the organism CAN survive
13 Consider this example Metabolite B Outside of the cell Inside of the cell X Metabolite A Metabolite B Metabolite C Enzyme X Enzyme Y If enzyme X is missing, and metabolite B is provided, the organism CAN survive B and C are downstream of enzyme X
14 Experimental description Growth Medias: precursor only Ornithine only Citrulline only Arginine only Strains of Neurospora: Missing enzyme 1 Missing enzyme 2 Missing enzyme 3 Normal (wild type) Possible results: OR Growth (+) No growth (-)(
15 HYPOTHESES/PREDICTIONS Make predictions for results that would support hypothesis A and predictions for results supporting hypothesis B. On your charts, use a + to indicate growth and a to indicate no growth
16 Predictions for hypothesis A Precursor Enzyme 1 Citrulline Enzyme 2 Ornithine Enzyme 3 and Other enzymes Arginine Precursor only ornithine only citrulline only arginine only Strain of mold missing enzyme 1 Strain of mold missing enzyme 2 Strain of mold missing enzyme 3 Normal mold (wild type)
17 Predictions for hypothesis B Precursor Ornithine Citrulline Enzyme 1 Enzyme 2 Enzyme 3 and Other enzymes Arginine Precursor only ornithine only citrulline only arginine only Strain of mold missing enzyme 1 Strain of mold missing enzyme 2 Strain of mold missing enzyme 3 Normal mold (wild type)
18 Actual results Precursor only ornithine only citrulline only arginine only Strain of mold missing enzyme Strain of mold missing enzyme Strain of mold missing enzyme 3 + Normal mold (wild type)
19 Conclusion 1) Explain which hypothesis is supported by the experimental results. 2) How do you know that the other hypothesis was not correct? (Explain which specific data refute the alternative hypothesis.) 3) Other than arginine, what molecule could you give to the Neurospora strain missing enzyme #2 in order for this strain to survive?
20 Application to Disease Vitamin C is required for several processes in the body Most animals have a metabolic pathway allowing them to synthesize vitamin C from simpler metabolites Humans are not able to make vitamin C because they do not have all the enzymes in the metabolic pathway for vitamin C.
21 Metabolic Pathway of Vitamin C Biosynthesis in Animals Missing or nonfunctional GLO enzyme X Source:
22 Treatment for Vitamin C Deficiency How are humans able to live without having a metabolic pathway to make their own vitamin C? Vitamin C must be obtained by eating foods with this molecule People who do not eat enough vitamin C suffer from a condition called scurvy Citrus fruits like oranges, grapefruit, and limes have a high vitamin C content
23 Additional fun notes! Primates, guinea pigs, the red-vented bulbul (an Asian bird), the Indian fruit-eating bat, rainbow trout and Coho salmon are the only animal species that cannot make vitamin C. These animals must obtain vitamin C from food in their diet. Like humans, guinea pigs also lack the enzyme gulonolactone oxidase (GLO), which is an enzyme necessary to convert L-gulonoy-lactone to L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C).
