Lecture 31 Flashcards
What is Lysis in Glycolysis?
Taking a sugar and splitting it into two smaller pieces
What is done with Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate in glycolysis?
It is taken and split into DHAP and GAP
How many carbons do DHAP and GAP have (the products of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate)?
They are both 3 carbon molecules
What kind of molecules are DHAP and GAP (the product of F-1,6-BP)
DHAP is a ketone and GAP is an aldehyde
What is the free energy of the Lysis of F-1,6-BP in glycolysis?
It is reversible so it has a free energy near 0
How are DHAP and GAP related to each other?
They are both products of lysis of F-1,6-BP and the are isomers of one another
What happens to DHAP and GAP?
DHAP undergoes an isomerization to create GAP so there are 2 GAPs
What is the free energy change of the isomerization of DHAP to GAP?
The free energy change is close to zero so the reaction is reversible
What marks the end of the energy investment phase of glycolysis?
The production of two GAP
What is a balanced chemical equation for the energy investment phase?
What kind of reaction is the conversion of Glucose and ATP to Glucose-6-Phosphate?
Phosphorylation
What kind of reaction is the conversion of G6P to Fructose-6-Phosphate?
Isomerization
What kind of reaction is the conversion of F6P to Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate?
A phosphorylation reaction
What kind of reaction is the conversion of F-1,6-BP to DHAP and GAP?
A lysis reaction
What kind of reaction is the conversion of DHAP to GAP?
An isomerization reaction
What is the balanced equation for the energy investment stage of glycolysis?
Glucose + 2 ATP ➡️ 2 GAP + 2 ADP + 2H+
How many molecules of GAP does on Glucose make?
Two molecules of GAP
Where does the split path of glycolysis occur?
At the two molecules of GAP
How many ATP are produced in the payout phase?
4 ATP
What is the 2 GAP converted to at the end of the payout phase?
Two pyruvate
What kind of reaction does GAP undergo?
An oxidation reaction
What is GAP combined with in the oxidation reaction?
It is combined with NAD+ and Pi
What is GAP converted to?
1,3-bisphosphoglycerate
What high energy molecule is reduced when GAP is oxidized?
NAD is reduced to NADH
What high energy molecules are produced with Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) is oxidized?
1,3-bisphosphoglycerate and NADH + and H+
What is the free energy when GAP is converted to 1,3-BPG?
It is close to zero so its a reversible reaction
What enzyme catalyzes the conversion of GAP to 1,3-BPG?
Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase
