  • mild

- cataracts

43

- result in abdominal pain, bloating, nausea, flatulence, and diarrhea when consuming lactose-containing products

44
Q

western Northern Europeans and tribes of subsaharan Africa

A
  • maintain high levels of lactase as adults

- lactose tolerant

45
Q

congenital lactase deficiency

A
  • rare

- results in severe lactose intolerance in adults

46
Q

NAD+ regeneration under hypoxic conditions

A
  • pyruvate can oxidize NADH to produce lactate and NAD+
  • via lactate dehydrogenase
  • unable to form acetyl CoA and generate energy
  • results in reduced blood pH and lactic acidosis
  • glycolysis still sustained because you donโ€™t have a buildup of pyruvate
47
Q

NAD+ regeneration under normoxic conditions

A
  • shuttle systems used for transferring reducing equivalents between cytoplasm and mitochondria
48
Q

chronic alcoholism

A
  • buildup of NADH
  • pyruvate will go into lactate instead of TCA
  • why alcoholics are often lethargic
49
Q

cori cycle

A
  • glucose produced in liver taken up by other cells and is converted to lactate and released back into the blood
  • lactate taken up and converted back to glucose through gluconeogenesis
50
Q

glycerol-3-phosphate shuttle

A
  • cytoplasmic glycerol 3-P dehydrogenase transfers electrons from NADH to DHAP โ†’ glycerol 3-P and NAD+
  • Glycerol 3-P diffuses into the mitochondrial membrane where a mitochondrial glycerol 3-P dehydrogenase donates the electrons to FAD to form FADH2
  • CoQ accepts electrons from FADH2 during oxidative phosphorylation
51
Q

malate aspartate shuttle

A
  • Cytosolic malate dehydrogenase transfers electrons from NADH to oxaloacetate to form malate
    • Occurs in the cytosol
    • Regenerates NAD+
  • Malate is transferred across mitochondrial membrane in exchange for ๐›ผ-ketoglutarate being transported into the cytosol
  • In the mitochondria, malate is oxidized to oxaloacetate, generating NADH โ†’ donates electrons for oxidative phosphorylation
  • Oxaloacetate is transaminated (TA) to aspartate, which is transported to the cytoplasm and transaminated back to oxaloacetate
52
Q

inhibition of hexokinase

A
  • inhibited by glucose-6-phosphate
53
Q

inhibition of PFK-1

A
  • inhibited by high levels of ATP (binds at regulatory site)
  • inhibited by citrate from TCA cycle, and low pH
    • makes sense because these are both products
54
Q

stimulation of PFK-1

A
  • stimulated by AMP
  • stimulation by fructose-2,6-bisphosphate
    • AMP indicates low energy status so need more glycolysis
55
Q

regulation of the cycle by fructose-2,6-phosphate

A
  • stimulates PFK-1 when glucose levels are high

- inhibits fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase

56
Q

insulin secreted by

A
  • pancreatic beta cells
  • in response to high glucose
  • insulin receptor binding triggers signal transduction cascade
57
Q

glucagon secreted by

A
  • pancreatic alpha cells and epinephrine

- binding to GCPRs stimulates a protein kinase A signal transduction pathway

58
Q

regulation of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate

A
  • regulated by PFK-2
  • kinase
  • phosphatase
59
Q

PFK-2 kinase

A
  • phosphorylates F-6-P to form F-2,6-BP

- stimulates glycolysis

60
Q

PFK2 phosphatase

A
  • dephosphorylates F-2,6-BP to form F-6-P

- inhibits glycolysis

61
Q

high glucose levels, insulin, PFK2

A
  • glucose high
  • insulin activates phosphoprotein phosphatase
  • removes phosphate from PFK2 kinase domain
  • increases F-2,6-BP from F-6-P -> glycolysis predominates
62
Q

A
  • inhibition by ATP (allosterically)
  • inhibited by glucagon
    • results in phosphorylation of pyruvate kinase, reducing it
63
Q
