cofactor

A

inorganic metal ions
never binds to AS of enzyme
REDOX reactions

27

coenzyme

A

non protein organic (otherwise would be enzymes)
often binds to AS of enzyme
REDOX reactions

28
Q

why Mg2+

A

stabilise negative Pi charge

29
Q

difference between glucose and fructose

A

glucose has a 5C ring and fructose has a 4C ring

30
Q

Generating phase (destructive)

A

Oxidation
Dephosphorylation
Dephosphorilation

31
Q

why is generation phase different to investment phase

A

Each reaction happens twice because there are two 3C glyceraldehyde3phosphates per Fructosebisphosphate

A

NAD+
Mg2+

33
Q

what does NAD+ work with?

A

glyceraldehyde3phosphate dehydrogenase

glyceraldehyde3phosphate dehydrogenase

A

Oxidises glyceraldehyde3phosphate by removing a hydrogen
Also phosphorylates
NAD+accepts the hydrogen

37
Q

phosphoglycerate mutase
