Exam II cards Flashcards
fructose is synthesized in the body from glucise via the
polyol pathway
in the lens of the eye if it accumulates can lead to cataracts
fructose
how is fructose metabolized
conversion to intermediates of glycolysis
fructose enters cells via
GLUT 5 transporter
fructose is converted to fructose 1 phosphate via

where does fructose metabolism occur
liver
function of aldolases in fructose metabolism
all cleave F1,6 bisphoophate
what enzyme is soley responsible for cleaving fructose 1 phosphate
aldolase B
what is the rate limiting enzyme of fructose metabolism
aldolase B
what is the function of muscle and adipose hexokinase when glucose is low
fructose is converted to fructose 6 phosphate
aldolase A is found
muscle
essential fructosuria
deficiency in fructose kinase
hereditary fructose intolerance
deficiency in aldolase B
why is aldolase B deficiency or hereditary fructose intolerance fatal
no aldolase B so fructose 1-6 cannot be cleaved but is also inhibits breakdown of glycogen and gluconeogenesis and results in hypoglycemia, high lactate and low ATP
what are the two steps to the polyol pathway
1) reduction of C1 by aldolase reductoase
2) oxidation of C2 by sorbitol dehydrogenase
the polyol pathway is important in
seminal vesicles
what population has a very high rate of galactose metabolism
neonates
galactose is converted to galactose 1 phosphate via
galactokinase (uses atp)
galactose 1 phosphate is converted to glucose 1 phosphate via
galactose 1 phosphate uridylyltransferase
UDP galactose can be converted to UDP glucose via
Epimerase
when lactose is cleaved in is converted to
glucose and galactose
function of PPP

______is the only source of NADPH for RBC’s
PPP
what is the substrate for PPP
glucose 6 phosphate
pentose intermediates are reversibly interconverted to what
intermediates of glycolysis
1 Glucose 6 phosphate produces what through PPP
2 NADPH, one co2 and one ribulose 5 phosphate
what is the enzyme called that oxidizes aldehyde at C1 of G6P to produce NADPH
G6PD
what are the 4 key enzymes involved in nonoxidative PPP
isomerase, epimerase, transketolase, and transaldolase
type of reaction of nonoxidative phase to produce ribose 5 p

glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate and sedoheptulose 7 phosphate
____________transferse a three carbon unit
transaldolase

what is the net result of nonoxidative PPP from 3 moles of ribulose 5P
2 frucot 6P
1 G3P
3 rib 5P
overal net result of PPP
3 G6P to 6 NADPH, 3 CO2, 2 fructose 6P, and 1 g3P
what is the rate limiting step in PPP
glucose 6P dehydrogenase
if a cell needs NADPH only
oxidative reactions to produce NADPH
non oxidative to convert r5P to G6P to produce more NADPH
cell needs NADPH and rib 5P
oxidative reactions
cell needs rib 5 phosphate
only nonaxidative reactions, high NADPH inhibits g6PD
cell needs NADPH and pyruvate
both oxidative and nonoxidative reactions are used
Heinz bodies
NADPH needed for GSSG to GSH, G6PD deficiency leads to formation of these in RBC’s and can lead to hemolysis
ribulose 5 phosphate to ribose 5 phosphate
ribulose 5 phosphate isomerase
ribulose 5 phosphate to xyulose 5 phosphate
ribulose 5 phosphate 3 epimerase
