Q

19
Q

What activates glycogenesis?

A

Insulin!

It also activates GLUTs, Hexo, and Gly synthase

20
Q

What activates glycogenolysis?

A

Glucagon!

21
Q

How does glucagon activate glycogenolysis?

A

cAMP activates inactive PKA to active PKA. The glycogen is broken down, phosphorylated, turned to glu-P, and then dephosphorylated to be released from cell (this release of Glu from the cell only happens in hepatocytes)

22
Q

Organism-wide, what intracellular signal regs meta function?

A

ATP/AMP

AMP kinase (AMPK) detects intracellular AMP

*This is important, I guess

23
Q

What turns pyruvate into acetyl-CoA?

A

Pyruvate DH

24
Q

Complex II of the ETC interacts with what step of Kreb’s?

A

Succinate to fumarate, when the FADH2 is created.

25
Q

ETC - Talk me thru it. Complex I

A

NADH is oxidized to NAD. 4 H+’s pumped into intermembrane space from the matrix and 2 H+’s are loaded onto Q (This reduces ubiquinone to ubiquinol)

26
Q

ETC - Complex II

A

FADH2 from Krebs moves the Q from II to the QH2 from I.

27
Q

ETC - Complex III

A

QH2 goes to Cytochrome C after getting 2 pumped H+’s and pumping 4 H+’s into intermembrane space.

*Free Rads can be formed here. NADPH helps with that. Thanks Pentose Phosphate Shunt and a healthy diet.

28
Q

ETC - Cytochrome C

A

T-fers electrons to Complex IV

29
Q

ETC - Complex IV

A

Electrons loaded onto O2 to form H2O. 2 H+’s pumped into intermembrane space.

30
Q

What happens at the end of the ETC? Where do we get all that ATP?

A

ATP Synthase. H+s pumped thru to form ATP

31
Q

Where are fatty-acyl CoA’s introduced into the ETC?

A

Complex II

32
Q

An NADH is worth how many ATP?

An FADH2 is worth how many ATP?

One Glu molecule produces how much ATP?

A
  1. 5
  2. 5

30-32 (Range is due to G3P and Malate Shuttles)

33
Q

What are cofactors?

A

Inorgo ions

Cu, Mg, Zn, Fe

34
Q

Oxidoreductases do what kind of rxns?

A

REDOX

35
Q

Transferases do what kind of rxns?

A

Transfers

36
Q

Hydrolases do what kind of rxns?

A

Hydrolysis

37
Q

Lyases do what kind of rxns?

A

Cleavages

38
Q

Isomerases do what kind of rxns?

A

T-fer group to yield isomeric forms

39
Q

Ligases do what kind of rxns?

A

Formations by condensation coupled to cleavage of ATP

40
Q

What is Km?

A

Conc. Of substrate at 1/2 max velocity of the enzyme

41
Q

What are the 5 types of inhibition?

A
Irreversible
Competitive
Uncompetitive
Noncompetitive
Mixed
42
Q

Explain irreversible inhibition.

A

Perm

Enzyme must be replace

43
Q

Explain comp inhibition.

A

Inhibitor competes with the substrate

44
Q

Explain uncompetitive inhibition.

A

Inhibitor binds the ES complex. This slows capacity of rxn and prevents production of product

45
Q

Explain noncomp inhibition.

A

Inhibitor binds enzyme or ES complex. Substrate binding not affected.

46
Q

Explain mixed inhibition.

A

Inhibitor binds enzyme or ES complex alone.

47
Q

What happens to Km and Vmax?

Comp inhib -

Noncomp inhib -

Uncomp inhib -

Mixed inhib -

A

Comp inhib - Km moves right, no change in Vmax

Noncomp inhib - No change in Km, reduces Vmax

Uncomp inhib - Km moves left, reduces Vmax

Mixed inhib - Km moves right, reduces Vmax
