Chapter 16 - Glycolysis Flashcards
3 stages of generation of energy from food
- large molecules broken down
- small molecules processed into key molecules of metabolism (acetyl CoA)
- ATP produced from complete oxidation
amylase
salivary or pancreatic; degrade starch, glycogen to glucose, maltose, and oligosaccharides
cellulase
convert cellulose to glucose
lactase
converts lactose to glucose and galactose
sucrase
converts sucrose to glucose and fructose
maltase
converts maltose to glucose
Hexokinase in the muscles
hexokinase I (enzyme), non-specific substrate, 0.1 mM Km, inhibited by G6-P
Hexokinase in the liver
glucokinase/hexokinase IV (enzyme), relatively specific, 5-10mM Km, not inhibited by G6-P
Hexokinase in _______ takes longer to get saturated and therefore…
liver; more opportunity to be phosphorylated
first reaction to produce energy equivalent?
5; glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to 1,3-BPG
kinases
A phosphoryl group is transferred from ATP to a glycolytic intermediate
or vice-versa
mutase
Shift within a molecule from one oxygen to another
isomerases
Interconversion between a ketone and an aldose.
enolase
removal of water molecule
aldolase
split of C-C bond
