Q

When a reaction is irreversible, what does that mean?

A

It means that the reaction is very organic meaning that you can’t go back and these are regulation points

Q

What steps is glycolysis regulated at?

A

One, three, and 10 because they have a large negative delta G meaning that the reaction is highly extra organic and irreversible

Q

What does feedback inhibition?

A

The product of a metabolic pathway, inhibit and enzyme further upstream in the pathway. This is referred to as the first enzyme in the product is the end product.

Q

What are some ways of controlling a metabolic pathway by negative feedback?

A
  1. Feedback inhibition: the product of metabolic pathway, inhibits, and enzyme further upstream
  2. product inhibition: the product of an enzyme catalysis reaction binds to inhibiting its activity

Q

Why are C – H, C – C, and C – OH Barnes important

A

They harnessed energy stored in these bonds, and the cells can use the energy generated from oxidizing carbon to do work

Q

Name the reduction and oxidized states of carbon atoms from reduced to most oxidize

A

CH2, CH20, CO CH02, CO2

20
Q

How much energy does animals get from fatty acids from a triglyceride?

A

-11,180 kJ per mol

21
Q

How much energy is from glucose

A

-2810 kJ per mole

22
Q

What is the energy carrier for most biological reactions also known as the main energy of the cell

A

ATP

23
Q

Lots of energy are stored in what type of bonds

A

Phospho and hydride bonds

24
Q

Explain what happens during ATP hydrolysis

A

-This is the energy that is stored in Phospho and hydride bonds
1. It relieves electrostatic repulsion.
2. The pie released by hydrolysis has better residence stabilization than it had on ATP.
3. A greater degree of salvation of products which further stabilizes the molecule.

25
Q

ATP plus H2O can yield AMP plus PPI what is the delta G

A

-45.6

26
Q

ATP plus H2O can yield ADP plus PI what is the delta G

A

-30.5

27
Q

Free energies are what?

A

Additive

28
Q

The Delta G for an overall reaction can be determined by adding what

A

The Delta G0 values for the two couple reactions

29
Q

If an uphill reaction where the Delta G is positive as couples to a more downhill reaction where the Delta G is negative the overall reaction can be made what

A

Downhill where the Delta G is negative

30
Q

What does a large delta G0 mean in phosphate transfer

A

Large Delta G means that it is an energy rich compound that has high energy phosphate bond with high phosphate transfer potential

31
Q

Do the phosphate compounds that are involved in DG hydrolysis do they form spontaneously?

A

No, they do not hydrolyze spontaneously because they are kinetically stable yet they do contain large amounts of stored free energy

32
Q

What is the delta G number for Delta G0 hydrolysis for energy rich compounds

A

Negative -25 kJ per mole or more

33
Q

What is a small delta G0 indicate of hydrolysis

A

Energy poor compound
Low energy phosphate bond
Low phosphate transfer potential

34
Q

What can a large delta de hydrolysis compound due to a smaller

A

It can transfer its phosphate group to a compound with a smaller Delta de hydrolysis

35
Q

What is substrate level phosphorylation or SLP?

A

Production of ATP by direct transfer of a high energy phosphate from a high energy phosphate compound
From ADP
The Delta hydrolysis is more negative than ATP

36
Q

If a large compound can transfer its phosphate group to a smaller compound with a smaller Delta G, what does this mean for ATP?

A

It means that it can be formed by SLP from very high energy compounds like pep and 13 BPG

37
Q

What is an example of a high energy compound that can make ATP

A

Acyl phosphate

38
Q

What is an example of a compound that can make ATP that has a huge delta G hydrolysis due to Eno keto Tata memorization

A

Phospho Enol pyruvate

39
Q

What is an example of a compound that can make ATP that contains a high energy and bond and it occurs in cardiac and skills of muscle and in the brain

A

Creatine phosphate

40
Q

Is a thio esther considered a high energy compound that can make ATP

A

Yes, and an example is acetyl-CoA

41
Q

Delta G changes are dependent on what

A

The concentration

42
Q

What is the standard value for free energy of hydrolysis of ATP

A

-30.5 kJ per mole

43
Q

Why are NADH and FADH important

A

They also provide the cell with energy, NADH has two high energy electrons and FAH has two high energy electrons

44
Q

What does FAD FMN stand for

A

FAD equals Flavin adenine di nucleotide
FMN equals flavin adenine mono nucleotide

45
Q

What is the elucidation of metabolic pathways?

A

Sequences and energetics
Control mechanisms
Enzyme mechanic
