1
Q
Glucagon/Epinephrine promote
A
- Gluconeogenesis
- Glycogenolysis
2
Q
GLUT2 transporter
A
-insulin independent
3
Q
GLUT4 transporter
A
-insulin dependent
4
Q
Irreversible glycolytic enzymes (3)
A
- Hexokinase/Glucokinase
- Phosphofructokinase - 1 (PFK - 1)
- Pyruvate Kinase
5
Q
Activators of PFK - 1
A
- AMP
- Fructose 2,6 biphosphate
6
Q
Inhibitors of PFK - 1
A
- ATP
- Citrate
7
Q
How is PFK - 2 regulated?
A
- Glucagon/Epinephrine
- inactivates through phosphorylation by PKA
8
Q
Effects of epinephrine on glycolysis
A
- inhibits glycolysis in liver
- activates glycolysis in heart and muscle
9
Q
How is Pyruvate kinase regulated?
A
- Glucagon/Epinephrine cause inactivation thorugh phosphorylation by PKA
- Insulin re-activates with phosphoprotein phosphatase
