Muscle biochem Flashcards
Lots mitochondria
Short diameter
Aerobic
High oxidative capacity
Jogging
Slow twitch fibers
Immediate source of ATP
creatine phosphate
What is the substrate & product in adenylate kinase pathway ?
ADP > substrate
ATP > product
What happens when ATP binds to myosin ?
Detachment of actin & myosin
What causes fatigue?
Low ATP due to :
⬇️phosphocreatine
⬇️glycogen content
Limitation of FA oxidation
⬆️protons
During intense exercise , what inc & dec

What activate glycogen phosphorylase and glycogen phosphorylase kinase ?
AMP & calcium
What differs glycogen phosphorylase in muscle from liver ?
It contain allosteric binding site for AMP
What is Cory cycle ?
Allows the liver to produce glucose via utilization of extrahepatic lactate
Epinephrine pathway leads to what ?
EPI > cAMP > pka > GPK > ?
High activity of glycogen phosphorylase
Why does the muscle switch to FA consumption?
To conserve muscle glycogen
