Processes
- Blood clotting
- Vitamin K
- Function
- Add carboxylic acid group to aglutamate amino acid residue
- form a gamma-carboxyglutamate(Gla) residue
- Usage
- VKOR reduces to vit K hydroquinone
- K hydroquinone oxidised
- Allows carboxylation of Glu to Gla
- By gamma-glutamyl carboxylase
- Also vit-K dependens carboxylase
- Only happens if oxidation to vitK epoxide works
- Linked reaction
- Vitamin K epoxide is thenreconverted to vitamin K byVKOR
- Reduction and subsequent reoxidation of vitaminK coupled with carboxylation of Glu is called thevitamin K cycle

- Calculations
- v = d[A]/dt = K[A]
- A+B > P+Q
- v= dA/dt = dB / dt = dP /dt = dQ / dt
- v = k[A][B]
- ES <k1 / k-1 > E+S
- (k-1)[ES]<>(k1)[E][S]
- Ks=[ES]/[E][S] = (k-1)/(k1)
- E+S <k1/k-1> ES >k2> E+P
- Km = (K1+K2)/(K-1)

- Glycogen
- Glycogenolysis
- Glycogen(n residues) + Pi <>glycogen(n-1 residues) + glucose-1-phosphate
- 1. Glycogen phosphatasephosphorilates a-1-4
- Until 4 residues before a-1-6 branch
- Glygogen debranching puts 3onto another branch
- α[1→6] glucosidase hydroliseslast glucose off
- Only case of non G1P
- Hexokinate converts it to G1P
- 2. G1P to G6P
- by phosphoglucomutase
- Glycogenesis
- 1. Glucose to G6P
- Glucokinase
- Hexokinase
- 2. G6P to G1P
- Phosphoglucomutase
- glucose-1,6-bisphosphate`intermediate
- 3. G1P to UDP-Glucose
- Uridyl Transferase
- aka UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase
- Pyrophosphate formed
- Hydrolyses to 2 Pi
- Pyrophosphatase
- 4. Chain assembly
- Glycogen synthase
- Start on old chain
- Or glycogenin (primer)
- Process
- Binds to UDPG
- Oxonium ion forms
- Add to 4 hydroxyl group
- 5. Branching
- amylo-α(1:4)→α(1:6)transglycosylase
- End of chain onto earlier part
pH
- Hyperventilation
- Increased gass/lung contact
- Lower CO2
- Lower H2CO3
- Lower H+ + HCO3-
- Alkidosis
- Vasoconstriction
- Hb affinity for O2 increases
- Lower O2
- Formulas
- pH = -Log[H+]
- [H+] = 10^-pH
- [H+] = ([HA]Ka)/[A-]
- [H+][OH-]=10^-14 M
- Weak acid
- Ka = [H+][A-] / [HA]
- Ka low = weak acid
- pKa = -log(Ka)
- pKa+pKb=14
- pH=pKa + log([A-]/[HA])
- [A-] = X
- [HA] = Concentration-X
