  2. false it is amphilatic
    3.true
  3. true

26
Q

mechanism regulating metabolic pathways:

A
  • Feedback Inhibition e.g. NADH can inihibit enzymes
    involved in its production, NAD+ can stimulate
  • Phosphorylation/dephosphorylation e.g. pyruvate
    dehydrogenase, glycogen synthase, glycogen phosphorylase
  • Hormonal regulation eg insulin, glucagon
  • Allosteric regulation eg ATP, acetyl CoA, Ca2+
  • Availability of substrates e.g. availability of oxaloacetate
    regulates citrate synthase activity
  • Oxygen availability
    In the absence of oxygen glucose catabolism ends with conversion of
    pyruvate to lactate. No energy generation by TCA cycle or ETC
    Hypoxia/anoxia – failure of oxidative phosphorylation
    Ischaemia– no ATP synthesis, shutdown of energy-dependent
    processes, osmotic imbalance due to failure of ATP-dependent ion
    pumps, pyruvate dehydrogenase inhibited, increased lactate, decreased ph

A

PATHWAYS THAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
* Regulated enzymes esp. rate limiting enzymes
* Enzyme reactions generating energy – GTP, ATP, NADH,
FADH2, (NADPH in pentose phosphate pathway)
* Key enzymes in energy generation:
Dehydrogenases – NADH, FADH2, NADPH
Kinases – GTP, ATP
* The amount of coverage reflects the importance of the
enzyme

28
Q

29
Q

the consequences of imparted enzyme action ( due to mutation

A
  • accumulation of substrate
  • deficiency of product
  • diversion to alternate product
    ( loss of enzyme function so products cant be made )
