lecture 11- anaerobic

Question 1

converts pyruvate into acetaledhyde

Answer 1

pyruvate decarboxylase

Question 2

converts acetaldehyde to ethanol, can also convert ethanol to enthanal using NAD+

Answer 2

alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH)

Question 3

pyruvate decarboxylase uses this unusual co factor for catalysis

Answer 3

thiamine diphosphate (TPP)

Question 4

converts acetaldehyde to acetic acid

Answer 4

acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH)

Question 5

converts pyruvate to lactate

Answer 5

lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)

Question 6

gluconeogenesis and its sources

Answer 6

synthesis of 6 carbon glucose from smaller carbon precursors. sources include: lactate, amino acids, proionate, glycerol

Question 7

cori cycle purpose

Answer 7

turns lactate into glucose then transports it back to the muscles

Question 8

where does glycolosis happen

Answer 8

cytosol

Question 9

pyruvate converts to this molecule in the mitochondria

Answer 9

oxaloacetate (OAA)

Question 10

the molecule OAA is converted to in order to enter the mitochondiral membrane

Answer 10

malate

Question 11

cytosolic OAA is converted to this molecule, uses GTP

Answer 11

PEP carboxykinase (PEPCK)

Question 12

removes one phosphate on F-1,6-bP

Answer 12

fructose biphosphate

Question 13

removes phosphate groups

Answer 13

phosphatases

Question 14

converts F6P to G6P

Answer 14

phosphoglucose isomerase (PG)

Question 15

removes the phosphate on G6P to convert to glucose

Answer 15

glucose-6-phosphatase

Question 16

futile cycle

Answer 16

pathways that run in opposite directions which result in a loss of energy
