what happens if glucose 6 phosphate builds up?
|
hexokinase is inhibited.
glucose stops being trapped inside the cell |
|
how is pyruvate dehydrogenase regulated?
|
by phosphorylation.
it's INACTIVE when phosphorylated |
|
what phosphorylates pyruvate dehydrogenase?
|
PDH kinase
(makes PDH INACTIVE) influenced by ratio of acetyl CoA: CoA oxidising FA increases ratio, switches off PDH, lactase (lactic acid) produced |
|
what de-phosphorylates pyruvate dehydrogenase?
|
PDH phosphatase (makes PDH ACTIVE)
stimulated by high concentration of mitochondrial calcium |
