Chapter 21, Problem 42P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The results obtained with the mutant should be explained.

Concept introduction:

Glycogen phosphorylase catalyzes the cleavage of the terminal alpha-1,4-glycosidic bond of glycogen polymer releasing glucose-1-phosphate. The most important regulatory site in glycogen phosphorylase is Serine 14 residue. Phosphorylation of this ser-14 residue activate phosphorylase b form to phosphorylase a form.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The effect of substituting aspartic acid for serine should be predicted.

Required partner. Aminotransferases require which of the following cofactors: a. NAD+/NADP+NAD+/NADP+ b. Pyridoxal phosphate c. Thiamine pyrophosphate d. Biopterin
Need help, please.
Select all that apply. What is true about the conformational aspects of coupling? O The proton gradient is involved in the release of bound ATP from the synthase as a result of conformational change. O The conformational states interconvert as a result of proton flux through the synthase. There are two sites for substrate on the synthase and two possible conformational states: open (0) and tight-binding (T). Dinitrophenol binds to and inhibits ATP synthase conformational changes, thus inhibiting ATP synthesis. The Fo portion of ATP synthase acts as a rotary motor.
