Kaplan USMLE Step 1 Biochem with Turco

Members do not see this ad.

So, I'm on chapter 17 of these biochemistry videos with Turco and something occurred to me (aside from you know, ending it all....). Has anyone maybe made a list of the one or two high yield enzymes he's mentioned per pathway. I really wish I had thought to do this when I STARTED watching the videos...it seems like such a good thing to do.

Did anyone on here do this?

He has a "Turco's Top Ten" list. I had it written down in my Kaplan BC book, but have sold that so unfortunately I can't retrieve it for you. I know #1 was G6PD

OOOOH maybe he does it at the end, and I just haven't gotten there yet.

So, since I'm guessing you used Kaplan, was it helpful?

G6PD
HMG CoA Reductase
DHFR (Dihydropholate Red.)
UDP-Glucuronytransferase
Vit K gamma Carboxylase
Homocysteine methyltransferase
Methyl malonyl CoA Mutase
Hexosiminidase A
HGPRT
Branched chain ketoacid dehydrog.

aren't these all mentioned in First Aid? I just finished Biochem and I think I've seen thema all in First Aid.

Thanks for the list.
These are all in FA but I guess its good to know which ones are the most important to know

I finished the Bchem metabolism/molecular bio section in Kaplan and FA. Whenever they said "know this enzyme for the boards" I highlighted it in my FA. Here's my list. As you can see it's pretty much every enzyme in the section. meh.

• dihydrofolate reductase
• xanthine oxidase
• HGPRT
• DNA polymerase III
• RNA polymerase III
• Methylmalonyl coA mutase
• homocysteine methyltransferase
• alcohol dehydrogenase
• acetalaldehyde dehydrogenase
• ALL the rate determining enzymes in the metabolic processes
• propinoyl coa carboxylase
• hexokinase/glucokinase
• PFK-1
• Pyruvate kinase
• PDH
• isocitrate DH
• alpha KG DH
• PEP carbocylase
• G6PH
• NAPDH oxidase
• fructokinase
• Aldolase B
• galactokinase
• uridyl transferase
• CPT-1
• orthithine transcarbamoylase
• catacholamine synthesis enzymes
• Phenylalanine hydroxylase
• homogentisic acid hydroxylase
• glycogene phosphorylase
• all the enzymes in glycogen storage disease
• beta glucocerebrosidase
• sphingomyelinase
• hexosaminidase A
• malic enzyme (not in FA)
• acyl coa dehydrogenase
• hmg coa reductase
• know the heme degradation/bilirubin synthesis pathyway
• UDP glucuronyl transferase

Wow, I just read this list, and I'm so proud of myself for being able to remember them all! 😀

Maybe CPP-II for pyrimidine synth, and CPP-I for initiating urea cycle? Personally, I'm just trying to learn FA pg 95, and I'll sacrifice all other questions to the capricious biochem gods.
