glycolysis Flashcards
what is the way to harness energy? what bonds do we need to break
CC,CH, COH
in prokkary. where does glycolysis happen
in the cytosol
in euk. where does glycolysis happen
in the cytosol
where does the krebs/etc/ ox phos happen
in the mitochondria
in glycolysis you have to oxidize Cs to what
release energy and capture some of the energy as NADH
use energy in glycolysis to make what compounds
1,3 BPG and PEp
what is the first step in glycolysis and what enzyme is used
glucose turns to G6p with hexokinase enzyme
what is the second step
G6p turns to F6p with phosphoglucoisomerase
all steps involving ATP plus enolase need what
Mg+2
what is the purpose of Mg+2
metal ion cat. (charge shielding)
- cofactor that stabilizes ATP
what is hexokinase
adds a phosphate to glucose and it is highly exergonic
- control point
hexokinase has what type of fit
induced fit
how many calories do carbs have
4 kcal/g
how does Mg+2 aid in metal ion charge sheilding
makes the gamma phosphorous more accessible for nucleophillic attack
enzyme movmen tplaces ATP where
in close proximity to 6’ch2OH and excludes water from the active site
what are some key points about phosphoglucose isomerase
the rxn reversible
GABC
occurs through enediol intermediate
what are the main points of phosphofructokinase
- irreversible meaning you can’t go backwh
what is the main control point
phosphofructokinase 1
what does aldolase do
lyase removes DHap to give a double bond
- the rxn is reversible
what are some main points of triose phosphate isomerase
- reversible
- GABC
- occurs through enediol intermediate
TIM mechanism involves what enediol intermediate
planar transition state analong
what binds to TIM 155 and makes it 100 times stronger than GAP of DHAP
phosphoglycohydroxamate
does equilibirum favor DHAP or GAP
DHAP bc GAP is consumed in the next step this draws the reaction to the right
what does the TIM TPI structure show
alpha beta barrel fold/motif
what structure is this
triosphosphate isomerase
what enzyme generates the first high energy intermediate and what does it use
GAP3DH ( glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase)
- uses inorganic phosphate Pi
what type of enzymes are redox enxymes
redox enzymes
what transfer do dehygrogenases do
hyride transfer w/ help of a redox factor
GAP3DH or GAPDH generates how many NADH + H+ per glucose
2
how many energy electrons are stored in NADH
2
why is nadh important to the etc
it can charge etc and make more atp by ox phos
what element is similar chemically to phosphorous (P) and can subsitutute for P in biochemical reactions
arsenic
what is the relationship between arsenic and atp
arsenic can disrupt atp productino through several mechanisms
anhydrides contain what
stored chemical energy
