True or False? Intermediates in the glycolysis pathway can be a source of raw material if the cell wants to construct biological molecules such as triglycerides or amino acids, but the citric acid cycle cannot be used this way.
True or false? The E2 component of the Pyruvate Dehydrogenase complex binds NAD+ in its active site.
a) Metabolic process in which hexose metabolism occurs? Amount of steps? Since this metabolic process (hexose -> 2 pyruvate) is exergonic. b) But, looking at the individual reactions that makeup this process, they are a combination of exergonic and endergonic reactions. (true or false). If false, explain why. If true explain the contribution of endergonic reactions to the overall exergonic process.
True or false? Under anaerobic conditions, the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is responsible for the irreversible conversion of pyruvate to acetyl CoA.
Need help, please. Given that the enzyme pyruvate carboxylase converts Pyruvate into Oxaloacetate and this is an anapleurotic reaction. In the liver, what is most of the OAA converted into under these conditions? Please explain. 1. When blood glucose levels are low and the energy charge in the cell is high. 2. When mitochondrial acetyl-CoA levels are high and the energy charge is low.
"Anaerobic glycolysis" (the conversion of glucose all the way to two lactate molecules) results in no net production of NADH. True or False- why
Effects of Changing Metabolite Concentrations on Glycolysis In an erythrocyte undergoing glycolysis what would be the effect of a sudden increase in the concentration of a. AÎ¤P? b. AMP? c. fructose-1.6-bisphosphate? d. fructose-2, 6-bisphosphate? e. citrate? f. glucose-6-phospthate?
Calculate the net ATP yield from the complete processing of a saturated fatty acid containing 17 carbons. Consider the β-oxidation steps, processing of acetyl-CoA through the citric acid cycle, and electron transport.
BioKemi!! Make a theoretical calculation of how many ATP molecule of acetyl-CoA to Carbon dioxide and water if the entire proton gradient across the mitochondrias inner membrane can be used for ATP production and when the ATP synthase has 15 c-subunits? All steps in the calculations must be reported Hand written solution otherwise down vote
Enzymes normally enhance the rates of biochemical reactions by preferentially binding and stabilizing the transition states rather than either the substrates or the products of a reaction. The F|-subunit of ATP synthase does not fit this norm so well as tight binding to ATP rather than a transition state is employed to make ATP. Explain the binding-change model of the mechanism of ATP-synthase. How and why is the proton-motive force used in the reaction cycle of ATP synthase?
Fatty acids are oxidized by acyl COA dehydrogenase. Branched fatty acids, containing a methyl group at beta carbons cannot be oxidized by this enzyme. How does the oxidation of such branched fatty acids take place? Explain with all set of reactions and enzymes involved.. give necessary detail.. avoid cpy righting
ATP is an ALLOSTERIC INHIBITOR of the phosphofructokinase enzyme, which is a key catalyst for one of the first steps of Glycolysis. Citrate (citric acid) is a 6-carbon product of the first reaction of the Krebs Cycle (aka Citric Acid Cycle). Interestingly, Citrate enhances the inhibitory effect of ATP on phosphofructokinase. What is a likely explanation for the inhibitory effects of these molecules? Excess ATP and Citrate signal the cell that Glycolysis should be speeded up. Excess ATP and Citrate signal a positive feedback loop. Excess ATP and Citrate signal the cell that Glycolysis should be slowed. Excess ATP and Citrate compete for the active site of phosphofructokinase.
