|
What's the difference between ribose and deoxyribose?
|

|
|
What is the reaction intermediate for the mechanism of ribulose - 5 - phosphate?
|
Draw the enediolate intermediate......
|
|
Explain the term endergonic.
|
+ delta G (Gibbs Free Energy)
- needs energy to proceed - Not spontaneous |
|
Explain the term endothermic.
|
+ delta H (Enthalpy)
- needs to take in energy from the surroundings to proceed - energy to break bonds of reactants is greater than the energy released from forming the products |
|
What does Gibbs free energy tell us?
|
Gibbs free energy tells whther a reaction is spontaneous.
+ delta G; non-spontaneous reaction - delta G; spontaneous reaction |
|
What are the 3 key chemical features
to account for the free energy changes in ATP? |
1) the smaller solvation energy of ATP
2) electron delocalization betwn P-O-P 3) charge repulsion betwn O- charges |
|
A) What is the nucleophile seen in the reaction catalyzed by hexokinase?
B) What features allow it to make Glu-6- phosphate and not hydrolyze ATP? |
A) Nucleophile = -OH on C-6 of glucose
B) 1 - Mg +2 stabilizes the charges of the O- groups. 2- H2O is removed from the active site in hexokinase by closure allowing the nucleophile to attack. |
|
What is the enzyme that cleaves fructose-1,6 biphosphate? How many compds result?
|
- aldolase
- 1 - 2 - 3 |
