Fat Synthesis Flashcards
Muscle hexokinase is inhibited by
glucose 6 phosphate
Liver glucokinase is stimulated by high amounts of ______ not inhibited by ______
Glucose, G6P
Isocitrate dehydrogenase is inhibited by
ATP and stops TCA
There are two transports mechanisms for the glucose molecules to get into the cells
Sodium independent facilitated transport system and sodium monosacharride co-transport system
Which transport mechanism contains GLUT transporters and move down the concentration gradient?
SIFTS
Which transport mechanism is ATP dependent and transports glucose against the concentration gradient ? (found within epithelial cells of instentine, renal tubules, and choroid plexus
SGLT
What is the function of GLUT 2?
Transports Glucose, galactose, and fructose.
Carries dietary glucose out of the intestine into the liver, kidney, pancreas Beta Cells
It is insulin dependent
What is the function of glut 4?
Transport glucose into muscle and adipose tissue via facilitated diffusion
What is Glut 4 stimulated by?
Insulin, Low Energy Charge
Exercise or insulin result in a ______ in glucose
uptake in skeletal muscle
10fold
About 90% of insulin-stimulated glucose uptake
occurs in skeletal muscle True or False
True
Adipose tissue accounts for only __ of insulin-stimulated
glucose uptake
10%
Exercise stimulates the accumulation of GLUT4 in the
cell membrane for
1-2 hours after the exercise
Exercise increases the number of _____ in skeletal muscle
Glut 4 proteins
