Glycolysis is a degradative pathway of glucose.(a). Out of the four kinase enzymes, indicate which are reversible and which areirreversible reactions.(b). Out of the four kinase enzyme reactions, indicate which ones used ATP andwhich ones produced ATP.
Citrate, an intermediate in the TCA cycle, affects the activity of the enzyme phosphofructokinase, the enzyme that catalyzes the third step of glycolysis. Based on the expected logic of feedback in metabolism, which of the following is likely true? a. Citrate inhibits phosphofructokinase b. Phosphofructokinase inhibits citrate c. There is no logical reason for feedback to exist in this case d. Citrate activates phosphofructokinase
What is the advantage of using ATP as a common energy source?Another way of asking this question is, “Why does ATP provide anadvantage over using a bunch of different food molecules?” For example,instead of just having a Na+/K+-ATPase in a cell, why not have manydifferent ion pumps, each driven by a different food molecule, like aNa+/K+-glucosase (a pump that uses glucose), a Na+/K+-sucrase (a pumpthat uses sucrose), a Na+/K+-fatty acidase (a pump that uses fatty acids),and so on?
The production of ATP (cellular respiration) is actually a(n) rxn. However, the reaction requires the of Glucose. A. catabolic : anabolism B. anabolic : catabolism C. exergonic : endergonic conversion D. hydrolytic : dehydration
Which of the following statements is TRUE regarding regulation of glycolyis? hexokinase regulates glycolysis by degrading glucose-6-phosphate low levels of ATP inhibit phosphofructokinase-1 because ATP preferentially binds to the allosteric inhibition site inhibition of glucose-6-phosphate by hexokinase is an example of feedback inhibition none of these statements are correct I selected option C and got it wrong, what is the correct answer with an explanation to why it is and also how was my answer wrong?
Which of the following metabolic processes can occur withouta net influx of energy from some other process?(A) ADP +~P i S ATP + H2O(B) C6H12O6 + 6 O2 S 6 CO2 + 6 H2O(C) 6 CO2 + 6 H2O S C6H12O6 + 6 O2(D) Amino acids S Protein
A 75 kg person doing light work requires about 3000 kcal of food energy perday, 40% of which is actually used by the body’s cells. (The other 60% is lostas heat and in waste products.) Before being used by the cells, effectively allof this energy is stored in ATP, which is then cleaved into ADP and PO3−2 , with the release of 12.5 kcal per mole of ATP.(a) How many moles of ATP are turned over per day in this fashion? Whatmass of ATP does this correspond to? (The molecular weight of ATP is507 g/mol.)(b) The body actually contains approximately 5 g ATP. Estimate the averagerecycle time for an ATP molecule. You see that it is much more efficientto reuse ADP rather than to synthesize it de novo (from scratch).
This is the question: Ethanol metabolism has been part of the human diet for centuries. Ethanol cannot be excreted and must be metabolized by the liver using the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase in a two step reaction: Excess consumption of ethanol leads to the accumulation of NADH. What effect would a high concentration of NADH have on metabolic pathways and consequently the body. Choose as least two pathways to describe the effect.
Which of the following should inhibit the PDC by feedback inhibition? Choose all that apply. NADH NAD+ CoASH Acetyl-CoA Pyruvate Glucose 6-phosphate
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 amino acids?
The central metabolic pathways area) glycolysis and the TCA cycle only.b) glycolysis, the TCA cycle, and the pentose phosphate pathway.c) glycolysis only.d) glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway only.e) the TCA cycle only.
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase catalyzes the first step of the pentose phosphate pathway. This enzyme is highly specific for NADP+; the KM for NAD+ is about a thousand times that of NADP+. What does this mean in terms of affinity of the enzyme for NAD+ and NADP+? How would being forced to use NAD+ affect rate?
