The high phosphoryl transfer potential of 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate is explained by the resonance stability of the product, 3-phosphoglycerate. The same explanation applies to the reaction that generates resonance stabilized pyruvate from phosphoenolpyruvate. Show the resonance structures for both products, 3-phosphoglycerate and pyruvate, and state why the reactant in both reactions is not resonance stabilized.

In order to function as an oxidative phosphorylation uncoupler, 2,4-dinitrophenol must act catalytically, not stoichiometrically. What does this mean? Identify and discuss an important implication of this conclusion.

Under anaerobic conditions, Escherichia coli synthesizes an NADH-dependent fumarate reductase rather than succinatedehydrogenase, the flavoprotein that oxidizes succinate to fumarate. a) Write an equation for the reaction catalyzed by fumarate reductase.b) NADH produced by the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase reaction is re-oxidized by reducing an organicintermediate. Rather than reduce pyruvate to lactate, anaerobic E. coli utilize fumarate reductase. However, underanaerobiosis, the activity of -ketoglutarate dehydrogenase is virtually nonexistent. Show how fumarate is formed, usinga reaction beginning with PEP and including the necessary TCA cycle enzymes.c) What is the metabolic advantage to anaerobic E. coli in using the fumarate reductase pathway rather than lactatedehydrogenase to re-oxidize NADH?
