carbs Flashcards
lumen of small intestine (enzyme and digestion)
pancreatic amylase from cck, (neutral pH from secretin) oligo->disaccharide
brush border of small intestine
disacc picked up spit out as monosacc
brush border transporters 2
SGLT1 GLUT5. actively transports monos into cells using energy from na gradient
basolat glut transporter in small intestine
2, high capacity and low affinity (super sensitive) facillitated diffusion into blood,
GLUT2 properties
liver, pancreas, kidney, intestine, depends on glucose gradient, glucose flows in during fed state and out during fast
insulin dependent transporter and tissues
GLUT4, mobilized from vesivcles in fat skeletal and cardiac muscle
GLUT in blood and brain
1 AND 3, high affinity, ensures constant supply even at low glucose level
how does hyperglycemia result in complications during diabetes
aldol reductase similar to GLUT2, too much glucose causes sorbitol prod, causes accumulation and osmotic effect leading to tissue damage
frequency of glycogen branching
8-10 glucose units
energy required for glycogen synthesis per glucose
2 high energy phosphate bonds
what is activated glucose and why the need for pyroPO4
trap glucose in cell with a form that as sufficient energy to make a1-4 bond, PPi is used to couple rxn
insulin promotes __ by __
fuel storage by dephosphorylation
glucagon/epi promote __ by __
Fuel mobilization by phosphorylation
cAMP and glycogen
phosphorylates glycogen synthase through PKA, inactivating it
epi to beta activates
cAMP
epi to alpha activates
Ca2+
where is glucose entry insulin dependent
adipose and muscle
four compounds requiring galactose
glycoproteins glycolipids proteoglycans breast milk
difference in galactosemia between galactokinase and uridyl transferase deficiency
uridyl transferase def. results in buildup of galactose1po4, causing buildup of galactitol
how does HFI result in hypoglycemia even with sufficient glycogen stores?
Not enough phosphate to break glycogen down because it is backed up in fructose metabolism
toxic intermediate in etoh metab
acetaldehyde
how does disulfiram(antabuse) work
competitive inhibitor of ALDH, keeps acetaldehyde in the blood leading to increased hangover
