The entry of monosaccharides from blood to brain, hepatocytes, and erythrocytes is by?
Insulin independant carrier mediated transport (facilitated diffusion) Thus there is no energy required.
the entry for monosaccarides into muscles requires what?
Insulin
Glycolysis can operate both ____ and ___?
Aerobically and anerobically.
What is the function of glycolysis in in aerobic respiration?
To convert Glucose to pyruvate and ATP.
What is the function of glycolysis in an anaerobic condition?
To produce ATP and recycle NADN by making lactate.
Where does glycolysis take place?
In the cytosol.
What are the starting and ending compounds of glycolysis?
Glucose and pyruvate or lactate(in anaerobic conditions)
All cells that metabolize glucose contain what?
Kinases
Where would one find a Hexokinase?
In any cell that metabolizes glucose except the liver.
Where would one find a Glucokinase?
In the liver
How many types of Kinase are there?
3 type I in ambiquitous and can be free in the cytosol or bound to the mitochondria. Type II, found in skeletal muscle.
What inhibits type I hexokinase?
G6P and inorganic phosphate.
What does G6P doe to type one hexokinase?
It determines the amound bound to the mitochondria.
Is glucokinase inhibited by G6P?
No.
What is the first step of glycolysis?
Glucose is converted to glucose 6 phosphate by either hexokinase or gucokinase using 1ATP and Mg.
What is the second step of glycolysis?
Glucose 6 phosphate is converted to fuctose 6 phosphate by the phosphoglucose isomerase enzyme. This reaction uses Mg
What step is the comitted step of glycolysis, why is it called this?
The third step, the conversion of F6P to F6BP is the comitted step.
What enzyme carries out the comitted step of glycolysis?
The phosphofructokinase I enzyme.
What do all kinases do?
phosphorylate
What are some differences in the way muscle tissue and liver tissue use glycolysis?
Muscles must utilizes anerobic metabolism for ATP production when Oxygen is low. Liver controls the rate of glucose flux through the glycolytic pathway as a function to either provide intermediates from glucose or to maintain the blood glucose levels.
What do high levels of ATP do to the process of glycolysis, where does this action take place?
High ATP levels slow down glycolysis at the comitted (3rd) step. They inhibit the PFK action.
What can overcome the action of ATP on PFC?
AMP, ADP,cAMP, and Pi
What do high levels of G6P do to the rate of glycolysis? Where does this action take place
It slows down the reaction by inhibiting hexo/glucokinases.
What do high citrate levels do to the glycolysis reaction? Where does this action take place?
High citrate inhibits the phosphofructokinase action, thus slowing glycolysis.
What role does Fructose 2 6 phosphate have in glycolysis?
In the liver F26P activates Phosphofructokinase, thus enhancing glycolysis.
What do high levels of glucagon do to the reaction of glcolysis?
High levels of glucagon stop the glycolysis reaction and start the gluconeogenesis reaction.
What regulates the final step in glycolysis in the liver?
ATP and alanine negatively inhibit the pyruvate kinase enzyme, while Fructose 1,6, bisphosphate positively effect it.
What regulates the final step in glycolysis in muscle tissue?
ATP negatively inhibit pyruvate Kinase.
Fasting and Glucagon do what to the pyruvate kinase action?
Inhibit it.
Insulin and a high carbohydrate diet do what to pyruvat kinase action?
enhance it.
In what steps of glycolysis are ATP formed?
1,3,BPG+ADP+Mg=3PG+ATP
and
PEP+APD=Pyruvae+ATP
Per glucose, what are the products of glycolysis?
2 pyruvates, 2 NADH, and 2 ATP
Why does one glucose make two ATP's yet the reaction only costs 1 ATP
Steps 1 and 3(comitted step)each take 1 ATP, however after the 4th step, two products are formed that can each go through the reaction and each produce 2 ATP's. Thus the total end product is 4-2=2.
