| 1 |
Explain the Pathway of Glucogenesis
|
Pyruvate becomes oxoaloacetate and then Oxolacate will become Phophenolpyruvate and then many...
|
|
| 2 |
What enzyme catalzyes the reaction of pyruvate to oxaloacetate?
|
Pyruvate Carboxylase
|
|
| 3 |
What enzyme catalyzes the reaction of oxolacetate to phosphoenolpyruvate?
|
Phosphoenol pyruvate caboxykinase
|
|
| 4 |
Where does the conversion of pyruvate to oxolacteta take place?
|
Mitochondira MAtrix
|
|
| 5 |
What does oxolacetate have to convert to and why?
|
Oxolacetate will be reduced using NADH to form Malate in order to get out of mitochondria....
|
|
| 6 |
Where does glucogensis take place and why?
|
It will take place in liver cells becuase liver cells have glucose 6-phosphatase
|
|
| 7 |
What is needed by the cell to run glucogensis?
|
YOu need a lot of ATP. ATP is needed to turn pyruvate into oxolactetate..
|
|
| 8 |
What is the function of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex?
|
The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex will convert pyruate into a 2 Carbon Acetyl and attach...
|
|
| 9 |
What happens to the pyruvate as it goes through the pyruavte dehydrogenase complex?
|
The pyruvate will undergo decarboxylation and lose C02...an anion will form...the anion gets...
|
|
| 10 |
What co-factors are re-generated in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex?
|
GiFT... Glycolic Acid, Thymine and FLavin
|
|
| 11 |
What co-factors are consumed in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex?
|
NAD is consumed
|
|
| 12 |
What electron carriers accepts electrons from pyruavte dehydrogenase complex?
|
the FAD..this is weird b/c FAD is at a lower energy level than NAD.
|
|
| 13 |
In the citric acid cycle, oxalacetate is acting as what?
|
It is acting as a catalyst
|
|
| 14 |
What enzymes in the TCA cycle acts simillary to Pyruvate Dehydrogenase COmplex?
|
The alphaketoglutarte dehydrogenase complex... Acts to decarboxylate and and a coA to...
|
|
| 15 |
What enzyme is found both in the TCA and the electron chain transport?
|
Succinate Dehydrogenase..It is complex 2 in ETC. This enzyme turns Succinate into Fumerate....
|
|
| 16 |
What enzyme is responsible for taking co-enzyme A off of Succinyl coA?
|
This enzyme was named wrong.. Succinly coA synthease.
|
|
| 17 |
Each turn of the citric acid cycle produces what?
|
3 NADH,1 FADH,1 GTP, 2 Co2
|
|
| 18 |
How many protons does NADH pump out?
|
NADH will pump out 10 protons. Electrons travel first to complex 1 and 4 H are pumped into...
|
|
| 19 |
Who does FADH first pass its electrons to?
|
It wil pass it to co-enzyme Q. So you will get 6 protons.
|
|
| 20 |
What does the ATP synthase contain to help it rotate?
|
The c ring has an aspartic acid . The acid will pick up and charge to bring Hydrogens in and...
