ATP Flashcards
1
Q
what is generated from one molecule of glucose in glycolysis?
A
- 2 ATP
- 2 NADH
- 2 Pyruvate
2
Q
what are the regulators for glycolysis? what steps do they regulate?
A
AMP
- allosteric activator of PFK-1
- therefore low ATP increases glycolysis and high decreases gylcolysis
fructose-2,6-bisphosphate
- allosterically activates PFK-1
- made due to high insulin
H+ ions
-inhibit PFK-1 decreasing glycolysis
3
Q
why is the first step of glycolysis important?
A
- action of hexosekinase on glucose is irreversible
- commits glucose to metabolism
4
Q
what are the substrates for the krebs cycle?
A
- Citrate
- Isocitrate
- alpha ketoglutarate
- succinyl CoA
- succinate
- Fumarate
- Malate
- Oxaloacetate
