LOOK AT GLUCONEOGENESIS GRAPH
A
Look online or somewhere
25
Gluconeogenesis Facts
1. Activator - Glucagon, epinephrine, growth hormone
2. Inhibitor - Insulin
3. Glycogen stores last 12-24 hours.
26
Gluconeogenesis Substrates and NOT USED
1. Glycerol from fat
2. Lactate from Anaerobic glycolysis
3. Certain amino acids except for Leucine and Lysine
4. DO NOT USE Fatty acids and acetyl-coA
27
Ketogenic Amino acids
1. Leucine
| 2. Lysine
28
Gluconeogenic Amino acids
All except lysine and leucine
29
Pyruvate Carboxylase
1. Shifts pyruvate to gluconeogenesis
2. Produces oxaloacetate(OAA) from pyruvate which can enter the citric acid cycle or produce glucose.
3. Oxaloacetate is reduced to malate which can leave the mitochondria.
4. fatty acids produce Acetyl-CoA which power the cell and INHIBIT PDH and ACTIVATES pyruvate carboxylase.
30
PEP carboxykinase (PEPCK)
1. Converts OAA to PEP and requires GTP.
| 2. Activators - glucagon and cortisol
31
Fructo 1,6-biphosphotase
1. The reverse of PFK1 by hydrolyzing phosphate to produce fructose 6-phosphate.
2. Activators - ATP and glucagon
3. Inhibitors - AMP, fructose2,6-bisphosphate, and Insulin
4. Rate limiting enzyme in gluconeogenesis
32
Gluco-6-phosphatase
1. converts Glu-6-P to Glucose allowing Glucose to be transported out of the cell
2. Located in the lumen of ER.
3. Circumvent - hexokinase and glucokinase
4. NOT present in skeletal muscles; skeletal muscles cannot release glucose into blood.
33
Other important gluconeogenesis notes
1. Dependent on fatty acid oxidation for energy which requires the breakdown of triglycerides by the liver.
2. Lactic acid produced by aerobic respiration must be converted back to pyruvate by the liver and pyruvate can be converted back to glucose.
3. Acetyl-CoA can be converted into ketones which can be used for energy and transported in the blood.
34
LEARN THE PENTOSE PHOSPHATE PATHWAY
Look it up
35
Pentose Phosphate Regulation
1. Activator - NADP+ and Insulin
| 2. Inhibitor - NADPH
36
Pentose Phosphate Pathway notes
1. Occurs in the cytoplasm.
2. Produced NADPH and creates ribose 5-phosphate
3. Oxidation of Glucose 6-phosphate to 6-phosphogluconate is irreversible and rate-limiting.
4. Intermediates can be exchanged between glycolysis and PPP.
37
NADPH functions
1. NADPH acts as electron donor in biochemical reactions (fatty acids, cholesterol).
2. Production of bleach for immune functions.
3. Protects against free radicals by producing glutathione.
4. NADH feeds the electron transport chain.
38
How do products of glycolysis pass to the mitochondria?
1. Facilitated diffusion.
2. NADH requires 1 ATP to be transported into the matrix.
3. CoA-SH has a cysteine (thiol group) which forms a covalent bond with acetyl-group forming a thioester.
3. Thioester contains an S instead of an O in the OR group of a typical ester.
39
Kreb's Cycle Caveat
1. Oxygen is not directly required, the pathway will not occur anaerobically because of the accumulation of NADH and FADH2 which will inhibit the cycle.
2. Each turn produces 1ATP, 3NADH and 1 FADH2
40
Kreb's Cycle Acronym
Please, Can I Keep Selling Seashells For Money, Officer
41
Kreb's Cycle
Pyruvate (Acetyl-coA) -> Citrate -> Isocitrate -> Alpha-ketoglutarate -> Succinyl-CoA -> Succinate -> Fumarate -> Malate -> Oxaloacetate
42
Citrate formation
1. Acetyl-CoA transfers two carbons from pyruvate to a 4-carbon.
2. Citrate synthase catalyzed.
43
Citrate isomerization to Isocitrate
1. DEHYDRATION resulting in ELIMINATION followed by HYDROLYSIS causing ADDITION of water.
2. Aconitase catalyzed
44
Alpha Ketoglutarate formation
1. Oxidation by Isocitrate Dehydrogenase followed by decarboxylation
2. Rate limiting step of citric acid cycle
3. First DECARBOXYLATION and then production of CO2.
45
Succinyl-CoA Formation
1. Catalyzed by Alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex.
| 2. Decarboxylation resulting in the formation of CO2 and NADH.
46
Succinate formation
1 . HYDROLYSIS of the thioester bond on succinyl-CoA yields succinate and CoA–SH.
2. GTP is produced.
3. Succinyl-CoA synthetase catalyzed.
47
Fumarate Formation
1. Doesn't take place in Matrix, takes place on the inner membrane.
2. Succinate is oxidized to yield fumarate by Succinate Dehydrogenase.
3. FAD is reduced to FADH2
48
Malate Formation
Fumarase causes HYDROLYSIS of alkene in fumarate.
49
Oxaloacetate formation ANEW
1. Malate dehydrogenase causes OXIDATION of malate to oxaloacetate.
2. NAD+ is reduced to NADH.

Electron Transport Chain Notes
1. Electrons are passed from Complex 1 to Q to complex 2 to complex 3 to cytochrome C to Complex 4.
2. Ultimately O2 accepts becoming substrate level and forms H2O.
3. Complex 1 oxidizes NADH and becomes reduced. Complex 1 becomes oxidized by Q and passes 2 hydrogens into the IMS while Q becomes reduced.
