pathway review Flashcards
glycolysis
provides energy
excess used for lipogenesis in liver and adipose
PDH complex
link bw glycolysis and CAC (puruvate to acetyl coa)
CAC
oxidation of acetyl coa coupled to reduction of NAD+/FAD
ocidative phoshphorylation
NADH/ FADH2 oxidation coupled to ATP synthesis
gluconeogenesis
provies glucose to bloodstream during starvation
glycogenolysis
supplies glucose for ATP synthesis WITHIN that tissue but in liver it serves to maintain blood glucose levels
glycogen synthesis
store carbs
b-oxidation
provide energy
PPP
provide pentose sugars for nucleotide synthesis and NADPH for anabolic pathways (lipid synthesis)
FA synthesis
storing energy, synthesis of phospholipids and CE and used as signalling molecules
cholesterol synthesis
used in membrane synthesis, bile acid/ salt synthesis, steroid hormone synthesis, and to make oxysterols
ketone bodies
used by non liver tissues during starvation but not RBC
lipoprotein metabolism
delivers FA and monoglyceride to tissues and can modigy the type/ density of lipoprotein
urea cycle
detoxifies ammonia
what processes occur in all tissues
glycolysis and PPP
where does PDH cycle occur
everywhere but RBC
where does CAC occur
everywhere but RBC
where does oxidative phosphorylation occur
everywhere but RBC
where does b oxiation occur
everywehre but RBC and little in brain
where does glycogen synthesis occur
almost everywhere, but mainly in liver and muscle
where does gluconeogenesis occur
liver and kidneys
where does glycogenolysis occur
liver and muscle
