DESIGN YOUR ENZYME
AND SHOW THE REACTION!
To trap glucose in a cell, the following reaction is catalyzed by the HEXOKINASE enzyme:
GLUCOSE (G) + ATP -> GLUCOSE-6-Phosphate (G6P) + ADP
Diagram and label the steps in the catalytic cycle of this reaction in the presence of the hexokinase enzyme.
Show the steps of how the REACTANTS are converted to PRODUCTS (you can use shapes to represent the different molecules)
From what you know about the structure and polarity of the reactants, predict the amino acid R groups that might be in the ACTIVE SITE

- Brewing beer and the determining how to increase ABV involves understanding a little chemistry. Beer is produced with 5 basic ingredients grains, yeast, hops, and water. Grsains contain sugar which ferment into alchol and carbon dioxide. The system of equation that results is: 6x=2z+w 12x+2y=6z 6x+y=z+2w Where x is the number of sugar molecules, y is the number of molecules, z is the number of ethanol molecules and w is the number of dioxide molecules. If 8 molecures of sugar are used the determine the number of ethanol and carbon dioxide moleucles that would be the result _______ ethanol molecules, __________ carbon dioxide moleculesarrow_forwardWhy the sugar molecule is not broken down slowly are gradually in a series of steps?
