Q

What is the fifth step of glycolysis?

A

DHAP < —- > G3P
via tripse phosphate isomerase
*note that after this you have two G3P products which can continue (so everything after this step should be doubled)

16
Q

_____ is highly sensitive to poisoning by heavy metals such as _____.

A
Phosphoglycerate kinase (enzyme of glycolysis 7)
Hg, Cd, Pb
17
Q

What effect does arsenic have on the body?

A

competes with Pi for G3P in the G3PDH reaction to form arseno-3-phophoglyceric acid rather than 1,3 bisP that releases energy as heat rather than as ATP
glycolysis continues, but no ATP is produced- this is a problem in RBCs who use this as their only source for ATP –> anemia

18
Q

RBCs have a mutase which converts small amounts of ______ into ________, an important allosteric effector of hemoglobin that regulates _____.

A

1,3 bis P
2,3 bis P
oxygen affinity

19
Q

What is the eighth step of glycolysis?

A

3 phosphoglycerate < —- > 2-phosphoglycerate

via phosphoglyceromutase

20
Q

What is the ninth step of glycolysis?

A

2PGA < —- > Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)+ H2O

via enolase

21
Q

Enolase is inhibited by ______.

A

fluoride

22
Q

What is the tenth step of glycolysis?

A

PEP + ADP –> Pyruvate + ATP

via pyruvate kinase

23
Q

Which steps of glycolysis participate in substrate level phosphorylation?

A

seven and ten

24
Q

How is pyruvate kinase regulated?

A

inhibited by ATP, NADH, and acetyl CoA
stimulated by F1,6 bis P
inhibited by glucagon(Epi) cAMP-PKA phosphorylation
stimulated by insulin

25
Q

What is the net ATP yield for one mol of glucose through glycolysis?

A

net 2 ATP

2 ATP consumed, 4 ATP produced

26
Q

Describe fructose metabolism in the liver.

A
  1. Fructose + ATP –> Fructose 1P
    via fructokinase
  2. Fructose 1P –> Glyceraldehyde + Dihydroxyacetone P
    via aldolase
  3. Glyceraldehyde + ATP –> Glyceraldehyde 3P + ADP
    via triose kinase
  4. G3P –>–> Pyruvate
27
Q

What is hereditary fructose intolerance?

A

Aldolase B in liver is replaced by aldolase A which cannot react with Fructose 1P

28
Q

Describe the pathway of galactose metabolism.

A
  1. Galactose + ATP –> Galactose 1P + ADP
    via galactokinase
  2. Galactose 1P + UDP-glucose –> Glucose 1P + UDP-galactose
    via galactose 1P uridylyltransferase
  3. glucose 1P –> glucose 6P
    via phosphoglucomutase
  4. Glycolysis (other tissues) or return to glucose (liver)
29
Q

What is galactosemia?

A

mainly deficiency of galactose 1P resulting in accumulation or toxic galactose 1P uridylytransferase in liver, may also be caused by deficiency of galactokinase
