Mitochondria isolated from the patient’s fibroblasts oxidize pyruvate very slowly whereas α-ketoglutarate and malate are oxidized normally. a. At what enzyme would you predict the patient has a defect? b. Why? What evidence do you have to choose that enzyme? c. How do you account for the increase in lactic acid?
For the hydrolysis of glucose-6-phosphate, glucose-6-P + H₂O ⇌ glucose + Pi ∆G'°= -13.8 kJ/mol and K'eq = 3.81×10⁻³ at 25°C. Therefore the [glucose-6-phosphate]/[glucose] ratio is about 1/260 at equilibrium. What is the [glucose-6-phosphate]/[glucose] ratio at equilibrium when this reaction is coupled to ATP hydrolysis in the coupled reaction glucose + ATP ⇌ glucose-6-phosphate + ADP and [ATP] = ADP]? For ATP hydrolysis ∆G'°= -30.5 kJ/mol at 25°C.

In one of the steps in this pathway fructose 1,6-biphosphate (F1,6BP) is converted to gylceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G-3-p) and dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP). This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme aldolase. For this reaction at 25 celcuius and Ph7 we have: Keq= 10-4M and Delta G = +5456 cal/mol Calculate the following: The concentration of F1, 6BP, DHAP and G-3-P at equilibrium when the initial F1,6BP is (A) 1M, (b) 10-2 M, (c) 2 X 10*4 M and (d) 10-5 M.
