Anabolism Flashcards
What are the anabolic processes for carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids?
This will be what the cards are about.
Biosynthesis (Anabolism) requires
Essential elements
Reducing agent
energy
What are the essential elements for anabolism
CHONPS, metal ions, etc.
what is the reducing agent for anabolism
NADPH
what is the energy required for anabolism
ATP,
oxidation of NADPH,
transmembrane ion gradient
Substrates for biosynthesis (bacteria) from where
glycolysis, krebs, actyl-coA
Substrates for biosynthesis (bacteria) from glycolysis intermediates make
Sugars Amino acids Purines Lipids Peptidoglycan
Substrates for biosynthesis (bacteria) from Krebs intermediates make
Amino acids
Pyrimidines
Heme
Substrates for biosynthesis (bacteria) from Acetyl coA intermediates make
Fatty acids (lipids) Amino acids
Substrates for biosynthesis (eukaryotes) Intermediates from: Glycolysis are used to make
Sugars
Amino acids
Pyrimidines
Lipids
Substrates for biosynthesis (eukaryotes) Intermediates from: Krebs are used to make
Amino acids
Pyrimidines and purines
Chlorophyll and heme

Amino acids
Pyrimidines and purines
Chlorophyll and heme
Substrates for biosynthesis (eukaryotes) Intermediates from: acetyl coA are used to make

Amphibolic pathways metabolic
Function in both anabolism and catabolism
Share enzymes, but pathways are never identical
Why are enzyme pathways never the same
Some enzymes act reversibly
Separate enzymes for some steps in pathway
