Viagra Pills Cause A Major Hard On (Von Gierke, Pompe’s, Cori’s, Anderson’s, McArdle, Her’s)
Na+/K+ pump
K+ and in each consist of 2 characters, so so 2 K+ are pumped in. Na+ and out each consist of 3 characters, so 3 Na+ are pumped out
Citric acid cycle compounds
“Can I Keep Selling Sex For Money, Officer?”
DNA bond strength
“Crazy Glue”:
Strongest bonds are between Cytosine and Guanine
Fabry’s disease
FABRY’S:
Foam cells found in glomeruli and tubules/ Febrile episodes
Alpha galactosidase A deficiency/ Angiokeratomas
Burning pain in extremities/ BUN increased in serum/ Boys
Renal failure
YX genotype (male, X linked recessive)
Sphingolipidoses
Pyruvate: products of complete oxidation
“4 Naked Fun 3 Coeds + 1 Guy”:
· Complete oxidation of pyruvate yields:
4 NADH FADH2 3 CO2 1 GTP
Insulin: function
INsulIN stimulates 2 things to go IN 2 cells: Potassium and Glucose.
Complex 4 of ETC
Cytochrome oxidase
It is a Copper/Heme protein
Inhibited by: Cyanide and CO
Phosphorylation
In the Phasted State, Phosphorylate
Purine and pyramidine
Guardian Angels are Pure with 2 Wings Purines (G and A) have 2 rings
Competetive inhibitors
Competition is hard because we have to travel more km with the same velocity (with compeitive inhibitors, velocity remains the same but km increases)
