44. Glycolysis Flashcards
major pathway for glucose metabolism that converts glucose into 3 carbon compounds to provide energy
glycolysis
where does glycolysis occur
cytosol of all mammalian cells
what is the substrate of glycolysis?
glucose
what are end products of glycolysis
2 molecules of either pyruvate or lactate
rate limiting step of glycolysis
fructose-6-phosphate –> fructose-1,6- biphosphate
enz. Phosphofructokinase-1
important steps of glycolysis
- glucose -> glucose-6-phosphate
enz. hexokinase/ glucokinase
fructose-6-phosphate
phosphorylation
fructose-6-phosphate –> fructose-1,6-biphosphate
PFK-1
PFK-2 product
fructose-2,6- biphosphate
PEP -> pyruvate
pyruvate kinase
2 steps of glycolysis produce ATP via substrate level phosphorylation
(1) 1,3-biphosphoglycerate –> 3-phosphoglycerate
enz. phosphoglycerate kinase
(2) phosphoenolpyruvate –> pyruvate
enz. pyruvate kinase
production of NADH in glycolysis
glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate –> 1,3 biphosphoglycerate
enz.glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase
this enzyme can phosphorylate glucose and other hexoses is present in most tissues
hexokinase
glucokinase is present in
- liver parenchymal cells
* islets of pancreas
hexokinase is inhibited by
glucose-6-P
glucokinase is inhibited by
fructose-6-P
- this enzyme can phosphorylate glucose and other hexoses
- low Km,high affinity
- low Vmax
hexokinase
- this enzyme can phosphorylate glucose and other hexoses
* induced by insulin
glucokinase
•this enzyme can phosphorylate glucose and other hexoses
- High km, low affinity
- high Vmax
glucokinase
activator of PFK-1
- fructose-2,6-BP
* AMP
activator of PFK-2
- well fed state
- ÎÎ insulin
- dec glucagon
inhibitor of PFK-1
- citrate
* ATP
