Chapter 9, Problem 11TYU
INTERPRET THE DATA Phosphofructokinase is an enzyme that acts on fructose 6-phosphate at an early step in glucose breakdown. Regulation of this enzyme controls whether the sugar will continue on in the glycolytic pathway. Considering this graph, under which condition is phosphofructokinase more active? Given what you know about glycolysis and regulation of

Design a radiotracer experiment that would allow you to determine
which proportion of glucose catabolism in a given tissue prepara-
tion occurs through the pentose phosphate pathway and which pro-
portion through glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. Assume that you
can synthesize glucose labeled with 1"C in any desired position or
combination of positions. Assume also that you can trap CO, after
administration of labeled glucose and determine its radioactivity.
In hepatocytes, the enzyme glucokinase catalyzes the ATP-coupled phosphorylation of glucose. Glucokinase binds both ATP
and glucose, forming a glucose-ATP-enzyme complex. The enzyme then transfers the phosphoryl group directly from ATP
to glucose.
Select the advantages of phosphoryl group transfer compared to hydrolysis and subsequent phosphorylation?
Glucokinase increases the transition state energy, favoring glucose phosphorylation.
Reaction intermediates do not need to be present in excess.
The process takes advantage of the high phosphoryl group transfer potential of ATP.
ATP hydrolysis is thermodynamically unfavorable compared to group transfer.

- The metabolic pathway responsible for clearing lactic acid from our bodies is called the Cori Cycle. It occurs in the liver, and converts lactic acid back into pyruvic acid, and then into glucose. The glucose can then be used for energy metabolism again. However, the Cori Cycle requires a net input of 4 ATP to operate. Based on this information how can you describe the Cori Cycle? [Select any/all that apply.] Cori Cycle is exergonic. Cori Cycle is anabolc. Cori Cycle is catabolic. Cori Cycle is endergonic.arrow_forwardAntagonist binds to the enzyme at a site far away from the receptor site to inhibit the function of an enzyme.

- Define and describe the steady-state in metabolism using glycolysis as your example. Your answer should include idea of how a pathway is pushed in a specific direction and how the pathway could adapt to a changing environment to maintain the steady-state.arrow_forwardUnlike a rabbit, running all-out for a few moments to escape a predator, migratory birds require energy for extended periods of time. For example, ducks generally fly several thousand miles during their annual migration. The flight muscles of migratory birds have a high oxidative capacity and obtain the necessary ATP through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA (obtained from fats) via the citric acid cycle. Compare the regulation of muscle glycolysis during short-term intense activity, as in a fleeing rabbit, and during extended activity, as in the migrating duck. Why must the regulation in these two settings be different? Extended activity requires the highly efficient anaerobic metabolism of fats, rather than the less efficient aerobic metabolism of glucose. Extended activity requires the highly efficient aerobic oxidation of fats, rather than the less efficient anaerobic metabolism of glucose. Extended activity stimulates glycolysis because the concentrations of citrate and acetyl-CoA are…arrow_forwardThe energy for the production of ATP comes from the breakdown of a glucose molecule via many enzyme-mediated chemical reactions occurring at several distinct stages of cellular respiration. During this time, the chemical energy stored in glucose is continually trans- ferred across these reactions. Which of the following describes the form in which most of the energy from the glucose molecule is stored just before the oxidative phosphorylation stage in aerobic cellular respiration?
