HMP Flashcards
Location
Cytosol of liver, mammary glands, adrenal cortex, adipose, RBC…not skeletal muscle
RDS?
G6P DH (NADP requiring)
G6P > 6-phosphogluconolacton
Transketolase needs _ and _
TPP and Mg2+
GSSG > 2 GSH via what enzyme
GSH reductase(NADPH requiring)
T/F: NADPH protects cells form oxidative damage
True
GSH:GSSG should be at?
500
Basis of G6P DH deficiency
What triggers?
- NADPH not generated > GSH not regenerated > oxidative stress and hemolysis
- Fava beans, drugs, antibiotics. aspirin, primaquine
Warburg effect
Glucose > lactate in aerobic conditions
Lactose intolerance caused by
Deficiency in lactase(lac > gal)
Deficiency of uridyl transferase?
Gal1P > galactosemia > galactitol via aldol reductase….cataract
Fructose metabolism occurs in
Liver(main) and muscle
T/F: Fructokinase converts F > F1P in muscle
False. It is liver specific. This rxn occurs in liver
Deficiency in aldolase B?
fructose intolerance
