Document Summary
: synthesis of biomolecules from simpler components biochemical conditions (where [water] ~ 55m, ph ~ 7), unlike. : (self-feeding) -- use simple molecules, derive energy from light (chemolithotrophs, photoautotropths) : - via non- covalent or covalent interactions with effectors / substrates. : metabolic inhibitors and mutations of key pathway enzymes, to determine interactions between compounds in the system (if there are inhibitors, how concentrations change, etc. ) : bile salts break down emulsified fats into micelles. : pepsinogen enters the stomach inactivated, and gets activated to pepsin by autocatalysis at ph. 80% pump (maintains cellular [na/k] at a higher k). Pumps 2k in and 3na out for each atp hydrolyzed. : more surface area for transporters, amino acid transporters food to come in contact with: what are the final products of carbohydrate digestion, what kind of diffusion allows fat micelles to be absorbed. : passive diffusion: what are the three major food classifications, what substances can pass through the plasma membrane.
