What are dietary carbohydrates?
Starch and glycogen
Salivary α-amylase
Secreted by the salivary glands in the mouth
Only hydrolyzes Internal α-1,4 bonds
Producing di & tri saccharides as well as starch α-dextrins
Action is stopped in stomach
Pancreatic α-amylase
Secreted in the SI by pancreas
Continues the digestion of dextrins to Maltose & Isomaltose (oligo, tri, di)
Secreted with bicarbonate
Enzymes on the brush border of SI
Maltase, Iso-maltase, Sucrase & Lactase
Digest the oligo-, tri & di and generate mono-saccharides
Enyzme Maltase
Breaks down maltose into two glucose molecules
Enzyme Isomaltase
Uses a α-1,6 glucosidase to break the α-1,6 glycosidic bond
Enzyme Sucrase
Breaks sucrose down to Glucose and Fructose
Enzyme Lactase
Breakse lactose down into a Galactose and Glucose
Why is cellulose (dietary fiber) not able to be broken down?
Because the β-1,4 glycosidic bond is not able to be broken down by the enzyme and passes through
How are fructose, Galactose and Glucosd transported after digestion from the SI?
By GLUT transporters which are facilitated transporters DO NOT require energy
GLUT-1
Importatnt for RBC but used in all tissues
Constitutive
LOW Km; Transport prefenentially; High Affinity
Dependent on the concentration on luminal side
GLUT-2
HIGH Km; Low affinity assures glucose rapidly enters liver in times of plenty
Liver, Pancreatic β cells
Only absorb glucose when there is a high plasma conc.
Participates in INSULIN SECRETION, b/c insulin signals the need to remove glucose from blood
GLUT-3
Brain, Placenta, Fetal Muscle
Low Km; High Affinity
Constant rate of glucose supplyed to Brain
GLUT-4
Skeletal/Heart Muscle, Adipocytes
Lower Km (~5)
INSULIN DEPENDENT (Induced)
Mediates insulin-stimulated glucose uptake
Run by INTRAcellular signals
Default in this can result in INSULIN RESISTANCE
Vmax is proportional # of transporters which is dependent on amt. of insulin
GLUT-5
FRUCTOSE facilitated transport
Small Intestine
Lower Km (~5)
Located on both luminal and baselateral side
SGLT-1
Na+-Glucose co transport
Intestine (duodenum, jejunum), Kidney
Na+ dependent
Symporter; both Na+ and glucose/galactose move in same direction
Na+ must be reused and transported back out by Na+/K+ ATPase which uses energy
What is glycolysis?
Degradation of 1 glucose to 2 pyruvates
10 rxns
2 parts
2 ATP consumed
4 ATP & 2 NADH Generated
2 ATP net gain
Energy Investing Phase (Steps 1-5)
Glucose > 2 Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate (G-3-P)
Consume 2 ATP
Glycolysis Step 1
Addtion of a phosphate
Makes Glucose-6-Phosphate
Uses ATP
Non-reversible
Glycolysis Step 2
Isomerization = rearrangement
Turns Glucose-6-Phosphate into Fructose-6-Phosphate
Glycolysis Step 3
Addition of 2nd Phosphase
Phosphofructokinase I
Fructose-6-P to Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate
Uses ATP non-reversible
Glycolysis Step 4
Aldolase cleaves/splits Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphate to two 3-C molecules; Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate (G-3-P)/Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate
Glycolysis Step 5
Isomerization between 2 molecules
Glycolysis Energy Generation Phase (Phase II)
G-3-P > Pyruvate
4 ATP Produces
2 Nadh
Glycolysis Step 6
Removal of Hydrogen & addition of Phophate per G-3-P
Forming 2 NADH
And makes 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate
Glycolysis Step 7
Phosphoglycerate Kinase Phosphorylates to generate 2 ATP or ADP respectively
Makes 3-phosphoglycerate
Glycolysis Step 8 (9)
Rearangement of P from 3rd C to 2nd C by Mutase makes 2-Phosphglycerate
Glycolysis Step 9 (8)
Makes PEP by Enolase and generation of super highway energy compound (and water)
Glycolysis Step 10
Removal of P to generate 2 ATP and 2 Pyruvate
Substrate level phosphorylation
ATO generated in the cytosol
Hexokinase
All tissues
Constitutive glycolysis regulation
Very Low Km
Inhibited by its product G-6-P
High conc. signals that cell does NOT need glucose and it is left in the blood
Glucokinase
Liver
Inhibited by Fructose-6-Kinase
Isoenzyme of hexokinase
INDUCIBLE by insulin; only active under high Glucose levels
Provides G-6-P for synthesis of glycogen
Usually coupled with GLUT-2
PFK-1
Key enzyme in Glycolysis regulation at Step 3
PFK is the rate-limiting enzyme in all tissues
Allosteric Inhibitors: ATP, Citrate
Allosteric Activators: AMP, F-2,6-P
What regulates Production of F-6-P?
PFK-2 and F-2,6-Pase and therefore regulate PFK-1
F-2,6-P
In Liver regulates Glycolysis and gluconeogenesis
Adipose regulates glycolysis
Pyruvate Kinase
Regulates at 10th step

Acetyl CoA Generation (Pyruvate)
Via Pyruvate Dehydrogenase
Condition: Mitochondria, low: ATP:ADP
Pyruvate transported into mitchondira via Anti-Porter
Decarboxylated generating CO2
Acetyl CoA eneter TCA for formation of reducing equivalents
Whats happens and why under anaerobic conditions in Glycolysis?
Either due to lack of mitochondria or limited O2
Pyruvate is reduced to lactate in cytosol (via LDH)
Utilizing the reducing equivilants in NADH
2 ATP generated for every 1 glucose degrading into 2 lactate
What happens to lactate in skeletal muscle?
Will be oxidized back to pyruvate and used for different pathways
