Midterm 2 Flashcards
Describe PFK2 and F26BP in the liver compared to the muscle?
PFK2 is phosphorylated by protein kinase a in the liver, PFK2 is inhibited and F26BP is activated. F26BP [ ] is lower and glycolysis is inhibited
PFK2 is phosphorylated by protein kinase a in the muscle, PFK2 is activated and F26Bp is inhibited. F26BP [ ] is higher and glycolysis in activated.
organisms maintain homeostasis by keeping concentrations of metabolites at a _________ state
steady
at steady state rate of synthesis ____ rate of breakdown of metabolites
equals
ATP inhibits the _____ step of glycolysis which is?
commitment step which means with abundant ATP PFK 1 is turned off
rates of biochemical reactions depend on?
- Temperature
- Concentration of reactants vs Products
- Concentrations of effectors
- Activity of the catalyst/enzyme
*describe how the rate of enzyme reaction depends on the concentration of substances?
the rate of enzyme activity is more sensitive to concentraion at low concentrations while the rate becomes insensitive at high substrate concentrations because an enzyme can only bind to one substrate
what is the function of PP2A?
dephosphorylates a number of proteins
phosphorylation is catalyzed by?
protein kinases
dephosphorylation is catalyzed by?
protein phosphatases
typically proteins are phosphorylated on the hydroxyl groups ____ ______ _____
ser thr tyr
increases hexokinase activity enables activation of ___________
glucose
increased PFK 1 activity enables catabolism of activated _______ via _______
glucose via glycolysis
insulin effect on ________ and ________ are major flux controllers
GLUT4 and hexokinase
*HK1 is expressed in ________
all tissues
*HKIV is expressed in the _____
liver
