Q

how many NADH + H+ are produced in payoff?

A

2

17
Q

what is the goal of the preparatory phase?

A

to make the stable glucose molecule unstable

this allows breaking c-c bonds

18
Q

how much energy is in a c-c bond?

A

approx 400kJ/mol

19
Q

which are the two ATP forming reactions?

A

1,3-bisphosphoglycerate–>3-phosphoglycerate
enzyme:phosphoglycerate kinase

and

phosphoenolpyruvate–>pyruvate
enzyme:pyruvate kinase

20
Q

Describe the reaction of:
glucose –>G6P

Describe the inhibition of hexokinase

A

glucose –> glucose-6-phosphate by hexokinase

produces 1 ADP

negative deltaG (spontaneous)

inhibited by high levels of G6P (negative feedback)

Glucokinase: a glucose sensor in liver,brain,pancreas,intestine. Regulated by Glucokinase regulatory protein (GKRP).

low glucose –> GKRP binds with GK
high glucose–>fructose-6-phosphade production –> F6P binds to GKRP –> releases GK back to the cytosol

21
Q

enzyme that catalyzes 2nd step G6P –> F6P

A

phosphohexose isomerase

22
Q

describe the 3rd step

A

enyme: phosphofructokinase-1

reaction itself is not favourable, but is favourable when coupled with ATP hydrolysis

ATP is an allosteric regulator of PFK1: ATP binds to PFK1 –> reduces affinity for F6P –>reduces enzyme activity

23
Q

Is ADP and AMP allosteric inhibitors or activators in the 3rd step?

A

activators

ADP and AMP signals lack of ATP

24
Q

is ATP an allosteric inhibitor or activator with hexokinase?

A

inhibitor

25
Q

will the 3rd step (phosphofructokinas-1) be faster when [ATP] is low or high?

A

faster when [ATP] is low

slower when high

26
Q

which enzyme is inhibited by ATP?

A

phosphofructokase-1
