Chemical change (化学変化)

Chemical equation (化学反応式) → chemical property kinetics
The energy variation as a function of reaction coordinate shows the stabilisation of the transition state by an enzyme.

Chemical equilibrium (化学平衡)

condition in the course of a reversible chemical reaction in which no net change in the amounts of reactants and products occurs

chemically stable ⇔ chemically unstable

Catalyst (触媒, CAT)

____MnO2 (catalyst)
H2O2 → 2H2O + O2
_____MnO2 (catalyst)
2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2

enzyme (酵素学)

Enzyme (酵素)

0. effective with infinitesimal
1. catalyst

A → [catalyst or enzyme] → P
Ex. Sucrose + H2O → [amylase] → Glucose + Fructose

To promote reaction
low pH + external energy

2. temperature effect
3. pH effect (v-pH relationship)
4. specificity

History of enzymology, including catalysis (酵素科学史)

1713 de Réaumur, René-Antoine Ferchault 1683-1757, France: digestion

isolated gastric juice and investigated its role in the digestion of food - meat is digested by the juice

Spallanzani 1783 Spallanzani, Lazzaro 1729-1799, Italy

meat digested in glass tubes by gastric juice at about body temperature - digestion occurred without stomach

1810 Planche, Louis Antoine (1774-1840)

lignum-vitae tincture staining blue by root extract

1833 Payen A (1795–1871) & Persoz JF (1805–1868), French

discovered diastase (ジアスターゼ): isolated a malt-soluble ferment that digests the amide

1830 Robiquet PJ & Boutron-Chalard AF

amygdalin hydrolyzed by bitter almond

1836 Berzelius: proposed the term catalysis
1878 Kühne Wilhelm (1837–1900), Germany

proposed to call enzyme (酵素) as substances promoting fermentation

Debate between Pasteur and Liebig about fermentation

Pasteur: a process of microscopic living entities like yeast
Liebig: a spontaneous decomposition of matter

1897 Buchner Edüard (1860–1917), Germany: in vitro fermentation

sugars in an acellular fraction of yeast

1903 Victor, Henry (1872–1940), French-Russian

all enzymes are proteins

1926 Sumner, James 1887-1955, USA (1943 Nobel Prize)

the first isolation and crystallization of urease (尿素分解酵素) from jack bean

Enzyme nomenclature (酵素命名規約)

Enzyme Committee, EC (酵素委員会)
Recommendations of the Nomenclature Committee of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology on the Nomenclature and Classification of Enzymes by the Reactions they Catalyse
Every enzyme code consists of the letters "EC" followed by four numbers separated by periods
Those numbers represent a progressively finer classification of the enzyme. Preliminary EC numbers exist and have an 'n' as part of the fourth (serial) digit (e.g. EC 3.5.1.n3).
Three names of enzymes
Trivial name (常用名), called in common use
Recommended name (推奨名), recommended by the newest admonishment from EC
Systematic name (系統名)
Classification proposed by EC
1961 International Union of Biochemistry (in Moscow)

establishing the officially accepted rule of enzyme names
firstly enzymes are classified into six major groups
every enzyme is coded as digits consisting of four parts

  1. oxidoreductases (酸化還元酵素):
    To catalyze oxidation/reduction reactions; transfer of H and O atoms or electrons from one substance to another

    AH + B → A + BH (reduced)
    A + O → AO (oxidized)

    Ex. dehydrogenases, oxydases, oxygenases
  2. transferases (転移酵素):
    Transfer of a functional group from one substance (donor, 供与体) to another (acceptor, 受容体). The group may be methyl-, acyl-, amino- or phosphate group

    AB + C → A + BC

    Ex. kinases, amino transferases (or transaminases)
  1. hydrolases (加水分解酵素):
    Formation of two products from a substrate by hydrolysis

    AB + H2O → AOH + BH

    Ex. esterases, peptidases
  2. lyases (分解):
    Non-hydrolytic addition or removal of groups from substrates. C-C, C-N, C-O or C-S bonds may be cleaved

    RCOCOOH → RCOH + CO2 or [X-A-B-Y] → [A=B + X-Y]

    Ex. decarboxylases, dehydratases
  3. isomerases (異化性酵素):
    Intramolecule rearrangement, i.e., isomerization changes within a single molecule

    ABC → BCA

    Ex. racemases, epinerases, mutases
  4. lygases or synthetases (合成酵素):
    Join together two molecules by synthesis of new C-O, C-S, C-N or C-C bonds by using free energy produced with simultaneous breakdown of ATP

    X + Y+ ATP → XY + ADP + Pi

    Ex. aminoacyl-tRNA-synthetases, peptide synthetases
Ex EC1.1.1.1.

1. = Oxidoreductases
1.1. = CH-OH group
1.1.1. = acceptor is NAD+ or NADP+
1.1.1.1. = Alcohol NAD+ oxidoreductase → the enzyme name
In the same manner, every enzyme is named by this rule
Number of registered enzymes = sharp increase

1961 (yr) = 712, 1964 = 875, 1972 = 1770, 1975 = 1974, 1979 = 2122, present > 3000
