The researchers did not study the effects of NADH, ADP and ATP on the enzyme. Given what you know of their roles in GAPDH, classify each as an activator or an inhibitor of the enzyme. What overall consideration having to do with how glycolysis is regulated allowed you to make these inferences, without having any data? Would ADP, a reactant of the phosphorylating pathway, tend to inhibit the competing non-phosphorylating pathway in order to get more ATP made? And the opposite for ATP whose presence indicates that pathway may not be needed any more?
Why cannot gluconeogenesis and glycolysis be active at the same time? a. False! Gluconeogenesis starts in mitochondria, glycolysis in cytoplasm, so they can be active at the same time! b. True! Gluconeogenesis and Glycolysis use the same reversible enzyme, so these enzymes cannot support both reactions. c. False! Gluconeogensis uses bypasses, so that's why both pathways can be active at the same time. d. True! Gluconeogensis makes glucose, glycolysis breaks glucose. The purpose of both enzymes is clearly opposed. e. False! Gluconeogenesis is in the liver, glycolysis is not - it's in the muscle, so a different organ.
