8
Q

reasons why the phosphoandrhydrides bonds are energy rich (3)

A
  1. there is charge repulsion that is releived upon breaking the α-β or β-γ bonds
  2. greater resonance stabilization of products after you break ADP + Pi or AMP + PPi
  3. produces have more favorable interaction with water

Q

Why is ATP well suited for its role as energy carrier? (4)

A
  • Number of ~P (i.e., 2)
  • Soluble and mobile
  • High affinity binding to enzymes

Q

Enzymes change the reaction___ and ____of the energy barrier (ΔG‡).

A

path and lower the height

17
Q

enzymes do not change ___

A

ΔG°ʹ′

18
Q

why atp not adp?

A

sometimes cleaveage of one P bond is not enough

adp bound bind too weakly to enzymes

different bases are located on adp (recognition handl)

19
Q

An intermediate thermodynamic value is consistent with ATP’s role as an___ and a ____

what couples such reactions?

A

acceptor and a donor

20
Q

with the common intermediate principle

The total ΔG°ʹ′ for the two reactions is ____ by the enzyme

A

not altered

21
Q

The exergonic reaction (ADP + Pi –> ATP ) is obligatorily coupled to the endergonic reaction (ATP
synthesis) by

A

E-P, a common intermediate in both reactions

22
Q

conversion of ATP to the different NTPs is ____.

A

reversible

23
Q

Why a Central Pool of Energy?

Due to the presence of nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDK), the various NTP pools are able to (2)

A

share available energy and avoid rate-limiting steps (e.g. fleeing a predator).

24
Q

Why a Central Pool of Energy?

the levels of ___ (4) reflect the cell energy state

A

ATP, ADP, AMP, and Pi

25
Q

Regulatory enzymes have evolved regulatory binding sites. Some of these sites are able to sense the energy state of the cell by binding ___

A

adenine nucleotides.

26
Q

ATP-generating pathways are inhibited by high levels of __?

stimulated by ___?

A

inhibited by high ATP

stimulated with high levels of ADP and/orAMP

27
Q

ATP-utilizing pathways are inhibited by high levels of __?

stimulated by ___?

A

inhbiited by high levels of ADP and/or AMP

stimulated by high levels of ATP

28
Q

The regulatory enzyme which turns a pathway on and off in response to the energy state of the cell usually catalyzes an _____ step in the pathway.

A

early step (feedback inhibition)

29
Q

Vertebrate muscle and nerve (creatine kinase):

A
30
Q

Adenylate kinase (ubiquitous)

A
31
Q

adenylate deaminase (liver and skeletal muscle)

A
32
Q

enzyme involved?

A

creatine kinase

33
Q

enzyme involved?

A

Adenylate kinase (ubiquitous)

34
Q
A

adentylate deaminase

35
Q

ATP buffers include

A
  1. phosphagens (allow muscles to last longer and stronger)
  2. adenylate kinase (many cells, not just muscles)
  3. adenylate deaminase (liver and skeltal muscle) – pulls adenylate kinase rxn forward
36
