Question
Chapter 22, Problem 34P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for citrate being an inhibitor for phosphofructokinase must be determined.
Concept introduction:
Phosphofructokinase is the most important regulator in the process of glycolysis. It is composed of 4 subunits and is controlled by various inhibitors and activators. It catalyzes the conversion of fructose-6-phosphate to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. It is inhibited by ATP and citrate.

Fill in the blanks below (input numbers only!) about the
metabolism of hexanoic acid, a fatty acid that is one of
the components of vanilla, and whose formula is
CH3(CH2)4COOH:
First, the fatty acid is activated by attaching CoA, which
costs
ATP molecules. The fatty acid
is then broken down through a beta-oxidation spiral, to
make
acetyl CoA molecules. This will
require
"turns" of the beta-oxidation
process.
Since each turn of the cycle yields
ATP molecules, and each acetyl COA will yield
ATP molecules by going through the
rest of its metabolism, the net ATP molecules produced
from one molecule of this fatty acid will be
. Glucagon secretion causes inhibition of intracellular acetyl-CoA car-
boxylase activity by several mechanisms. Name all you
can think of.
Acetyl-CoA and succinyl-CoA are both highenergy thioesters, but their chemical energy is put to differentuses. Elaborate.
