Energy and Glycolysis Flashcards
what is gibb’s free energy
energy capable of doing work
what is enthalpy
the heat content of the reacting system
what is entropy
quantitative expression of the randomness or disorder in the system
deltaG=
deltaH - TdeltaS
if delta G is negative
net loss of free energy
spontaneous
exergonic
it is exergonic if
delta G is negative
if delta G is positive
Net Gain of Free Energy
Not Spontaneous
Endergonic
if it is endergonic
delta G is positive
draw graph of negative delta G
pg 6
draw graph of positive delta G
pg 6
what does H stand for
enthalpy
what does S stand for
entropy
the more positive S, the more
thermodynamically favorable rxn will be
how does positive S make rxn more favorable
Ie a positive ΔS tends to make ΔG more negative or exergonic. This is why an ice cube will melt spontaneously at room temperature (the water molecules are becoming more disordered or gaining entropy) even though ice melting is an endothermic reaction (absorbs heat energy).
what does delta G tell us about the reaction
if it will take place, but can only tell based on initial and final states
standard delta G is energy change when reactants and products are at concenctrations of
1 mol/L
biochemical standard for delta G is energy change at what pH
7

glucose metabolism depends on what two hormones
insulin and glucagon
insulin and glucagon are produced by
pancreas
insulin is a hormone that when secreted body is teling tissue
“we have just eaten, we are going to put this away, produce glycogen, fat, and do protein synthesis”
glucagon does what
reverses with insulin does. mobilizes fuels, maintains blood glucose levels during fasting.
what cells in pancreas produce glucagon
alpha cells
as glucose levels rise what happens to insulin
rises
as glucose levels rise hat happens to glucagon
fall
alpha cells do what
secrete glucagon
beta cells do what
secrete insulin
alpha and beta cells are from
pancreas
draw out pathway of glucose regulation of insulin **
pg 25
what phosphorylates glucose to glucose 6 phosphate
glucokinase
what does it mean that glucokinase has high Km
low affinity for glucose - it’s good b/c you only want it to work when glucose levels are high
draw out pathway of glucose regulation of insulin know this well!!!
pg 25
polymers of carbohydrates
amylose & amylopectin
look at and understand difference b/w different sugar rings
pg 28
is sucrose reducing sugar
no
reducing sugar contains
3 anomeric carbon
fiber traps

by trapping water, fiber
softens stool
fiber can also inhibit
absorption of cholesterol
fructose, galactose, glucose are all
monomers from sugars
monomer sugars get in through what protein
SGLT1
glucose is taken against
concentration gradient (secondary transport)
Fructose absorbed by
GLUT5
GLUT5 is in
endothelial cells

in presence of insulin, number of what transporter increases
GLUT4
is glucose transport into RB rate limiting
no
what happens when GLUT2 doesn’t work
Fanconi-Bickel syndrome
GLUT2 where is it located
liver
if GLUT2 doesn’t work what happens with liver
glucose is accumulated in it
liver is too large
what happens to kidney if GLUT2 doesn’t work correctly
kidney doesn’t function correctly
too much glucose in kidney
what does pancreas do regarding glucose
enses glucose level
baby pts with GLUT2 deficiency, what happens with pancreas
impairment
if glucose cannot get in pancreas, insulin not released, have hyperglyemia → diabetes
GLUT1 deficiency affects
explain
brain
the brain needs a lot of glucose, if you impair glucose getting to BBB, you are affecting brain. all symptoms are brain impairment
RBC depend on what for energy
glucose
why does pt not die if they have GLUT1 deficiency
redundancy mechanisms, if something doesn’t work there is plan B.
sometimes these mechanisms compensate to normality, sometimes they don’t.
what is the only GLUT stimulated by insulin
GLUT4
if GLUT4 isn’t working right what develops
hyperglycemia
glucose passes into CSF via
GLUT1
neural cells take up glucose via
GLUT3
Sugar + O2 what is waste product
CO2 + H2O
why is sugar and O2 eneergy released in steps
to conserve the energy, and the intermediates can also be used for other things
glycolysis is taking glucose to
pyruvate
first five steps known as
priming the pump
what is priming the pump
making glucose more reactive
glycolysis takes place where
in all cells in the cytoplasm
glucose is catabolized to yield
pyruvate
pyruvate is oxidized in
TCA
when pyruvate is oxidized in TCA it produces
CO2 and NADH
in absence of O2, pyruvate is
reduced to lactate

draw out glycolysis
pg 39
what is first step of glycolysis

is step one reversible? in glycolysis
no, it is irreversible
rxns far from equilibrium are common points of
regulation
what two enzymes help us out with phosphorylating glucose
hexokinase (muscular tissues)
glucokinase
what is concentration of glucose
5 mm
is hexokinase or glucokinase usually used
hexokinase
when is glucokinase used
when we eat and glucose is increased - affinity for substrate is low but once it gets going the velocity takes off
glucokinae affinity for substrate
low
but has high capacity
what is Km for glucokinase
high (low affinity)
what is Vmax for glucokinase
high
glucokinase is inhibited by
fructose 6-P
hexokinase is inhibited by
G6p
the liver only uses glucokinase when
glucose levels are high
if glucose is interalized and processed to produce G6P and you accumulate F6P it does what
inhibits glucokinase - signals liver to stop glycolysis
mutation of glucokinase leads to
MODY and gestational diabetes
what is step two of glycolysis

Is ATP needed for step 3
yes
what is the main regulatory point of glycolsysi
step 3
is step 3 reversible
no it is irreverislbe, it is a rate limiting step
ATP at low concentration in glycolysis (specifically step 3) is a
substrate
ATP at high concentration in glycolysis (specifically step 3) is a
inhibitor
why do cells use ATP as energy
in normal concentration it is 5 mm
it only has 10% change
why is AMP used as sensor
when anything changes it changes by 600%, it is very sensitive
PFK1 if mutations will have
rare form of glycogen storage disease: GSD-VII
what will accumulate if there is mutation in PFK1
fructose 6 P
glucose 6 P

pg 56
arsenic toxicity is primariliy due to
inhibition of pyruvate dehydrogenase – see TCA Cycle.
what are steps 7-9 in glycolysis
phophoglycerate kinase, phosphoglycero mutase and enolase
pyruvate kinase is allosterically inhibited by
by ATP, acetyl-CoA, and long-chain fatty acids (all signs of an abundant energy supply),
what triggers activation of pyruvate kinase
and the accumulation of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate triggers its activation.
pyruvate kinase deficiency causes
hemolytic anemia
any defect of glycolytic pathway leads to
hemolytic anemia
when pyruvate kinase if not functioning well what is a cell that will esp. have issues
RBC - all ATP comes from glycolysis
pyruvate kinase deficiency increases levels of
2,3 bisphosphoglycerate
1,3bisphosphoglycerate is precurser fo
2,3bisphosphoglycerate
if there are high levels of 2,3bisphosphoglycerate what happens to delivery of oxygen
delivery of oxygen improves, so it is compensating. so the hemoglboin pt does have works better.
if there is a problem with the enzymes leading to 1,3bisphoshpoglycerate what happens to delivery of oxygen
2,3bisphophoglycerate decreases so delivery of oxygen decreases. so if they also have pyruvate kianse defiicency they don’t have enough oxygen and they have anemia, and they also dont have compensatory mechanism
lactic acid normally produced by
RBC
name three points of regulation for glycolysis
hexokinase
PFK1
PK
hexokinase has feedback control by
glucose 6-P
PFK1 activated by

pg 16
describe the glucoregulation process in α cells
increase in plasma glucose → cell generates ATP → ATP closes K+ channels → depolarization → Ca2+ and Na+ channels activated → blocks exocytosis (which would contain glucagon)
pg 27
describe the glucoregulation process in ß cells

describe the structure of amylopectin
branched glucose chains. linear glucose chains connected by α1→4 linkages, branch points are α1→6 linkages*
sucrose is mono or disaccharide
disaccharide*
sucrose is made up of
fructose & glucose*
what kind of bond connects fructose & glucose in sucrose
disaccharide*
is sacrose a reducing sugar? why or why not?
no
Sucrose is non reducing sugar because the anomeric carbon from fructose and glucose are used to form a glycosidic bond
*
is lactose a reducing sugar? why or why not?
yes
since only one anomeric carbon is used to form a glycosidic bond. The other anomeric carbon can open and close giving rise the reducing properties.*
are mono or disaccharides taken up by cells
only mono*
describe structure of maltose
Maltose – a glucose-glucose disaccharide connected by α1→4 linkages (ie. fragments of the linear chains of starch – either amylose or amylopectin)*
describe structure of Isomaltose*
glucose-glucose disaccharide connected by α1→6 linkages (ie. fragments of starch from the branch points of amylopectin only)
