For something a bit more technical on paper. Have you come across the name Gluconeogenesis? What do you think it entails? It isn't so much of a complicated topic since we have broken it down into simple questions (Swear it). So, here is a short biochemistry quiz on Gluconeogenesis, wherein you can figure out how much you know.
Gluconeogenesis process by which glucose is maintained occurs
Liver Glycogen stores are depleted
Glycogen synthase is activated in liver
Phosphorus, pyruvate kinase and glycogen synthase are phosphorylated in liver
Biotin is required
CO2 added in one reaction, appears in final product
Energy is used up in form of GTP
PDH is the allosteric enzyme used
Promote gluconeogenesis
Promote glycogenolysis
Promote synthesis of Glycogen
Occurs during fasting state
Palmitate
Glutamate
Pyruvate
Alanine
3-phosphoglycerate kinase
Glucose 6-phosphatase
