Cellular respiration is a metabolic process that breaks down glucose to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Oxygen is an essential molecule to efficiently divert the glucose into an energy-rich molecules needed to sustain activities of the cell. Hence, carbon dioxide and water are the end-products of cellular respiration. The overall process can be refined into three main metabolic stages namely (1) glycolysis, (2) tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle), and (3) oxidative phosphorylation. In plant cells, the enzymes that catalyze the individual steps involved in respiration and energy conservation are located in highly organized compartment called mitochondrion. In this laboratory activity, you will use the germinated mung beans (Vigna radiata) to demonstrate what happens to the stored sugar in the seed upon its utilization during cellular respiration. At the end of the experiment, you are expected to identify what are the different factors that affect cellular respiration.
Which of the following activate glycogen synthesis? A. Phosphorylation of glycogen synthase kinase 3 B. Activation of protein kinase A (PKA) C. Both A and B D. Neither A nor B Assuming that glucokinase is completely inhibited, which of the following statements is correct? Glycolysis reactions beyond glucose-6-phosphate in the liver would be impossible to take place The Cori cycle would be blocked Both A and B Neither A nor B
Which of these is associated with production of ATP during glycolysis? (Select all that apply) a) Conversion of 1,3-BPG to 3PG b) Conversion of 1,3-BPG to 2,3-BPG c) Conversion of PEP to pyruvate d) Conversion of 2,3-BPG to 2PG e) Phosphorylation of glucose
What is the consequence of complete inhibition of all mutases in liver cells?a. Liver cannot provide free glucose to maintain blood glucose levelsb. Free glucose cannot be released from glycogenc. Glycerol cannot be converted to glucosed. The only fate of glucose-6-phosphate is to be converted to fructose-6-phosphate
The Warburg effect is generally observed in cancer cells as a consequence of pyruvate dysmetabolism. Which of the following statements is inaccurate in describing the metabolic switch termed the Warburg effect? P53 function in regulation of glycolysis is lost, preventing proper cellular response of apoptosis Lactate production becomes the major fate of pyruvate Diminished oxidative phosphorylation in the matrix leads to enhanced non-oxidative ATP production Glycolytic flux is increased Pyruvate levels are diminished through the PDHC Pyruvate carboxylase is activated HIF1transcriptional activation leads to increased levels of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase and lactate dehydrogenase, while enhancing lactate export from the cytosol
The first reaction in glycolysis that results in the formation of an energy-rich compound (i.e., a compound whose hydrolysis or oxidation has a highly negative ΔG'°) is catalyzed by: a. glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. b. hexokinase. c. phosphofructokinase-1. d. phosphoglycerate kinase. e. triose phosphate isomerase.
Which of the following statements about the malate-aspartate shuttle is false? a) 2.5 ATPs are formed per cytoplasmic NADH shuttled. b) Transamination is involved. c) Cytoplasmic oxaloacetate is converted to malate. d) Mitochondrial malate is converted to oxaloacetate. e) Antiport transport is not involved.
The enzyme aldolase catalyzes the fourth step of glycolysis. This enzyme has a zinc ion (Zn2+) bound in its active site. This ion likely binds which of the following amino acids? a.A b.K c.S d.G e.D
The binding of ATP with the enzyme pyruvate kinase result's in this enzyme's failure to catalyze the last step in the breakdown of glucose during the process of glycolysis. In this situation, ATP acts as the ________ of pyruvate kinase.
