Glycolysis produces how many ATP?
|
2
|
|
In Glycolysis, carbon is (oxidized/reduced) and co factors are (oxidized/reduced)
|
oxidized
reduced |
|
What are the three products of glycolysis?
|
pyruvate, ATP and NADH + H+
|
|
A major strategy of glycolysis to create high energy compounds that can release energy. Which two compounds are created that form ATP?
|
1,3-bisphosphoglycerate and phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)
|
|
What enzyme is responsible for step one of glycolysis (glucose to g-6-P)?
|
hexokinase, a someone promiscuous enzyme that phosphorylates a lot of enzymes
|
|
What is the considered to be the committed step of glycolysis?
|
Step 3, is the formation fructose 1,6 bisphosphate. It is an important regulatory step in that it regulates how much sugar ends up in the blood
|
|
Is this committed step reversible?
|
NO! Highly exergonic
|
|
Dehydrogenases are always associated with ____ and kinases are always associated with ______
|
redox reactions, group transfers
|
|
THe first 5 steps of glycolysis are called ___
|
the priming steps
|
|
What are some of the key things that happen in the priming steps?
|
1) 2 ATP are used... but none is formed yet because the high energy cmpd needed is not yet made
2) You start with a 6 carbon cmpd and end up with two isomerized, phosphorylated 3 carbon cmpd ready to make energy 3) |
|
the 6th step (right after the priming phase) is a redox reaction that forms what?
|
1,3 bisphosphoglycerate
|
|
How does the redox work in this case?
|
the carbon is oxidized, which is exergonic and allows for the addition of the second phosphate to create 1 3 bisphosphoglycerate
|
|
what co factor is involved in this reaction?
|
NAD+ is reduced to form NADH + H+ (since carbon is oxidized
|
|
What happens next after the formation of 1,3 bisphosphogylcerate?
|
using ADP, a phosphate is cleaved and added to form ATP
|
|
what enzyme is responsible for this?
|
phosphoglycerate kinase
|
|
steps 8 and 9 prepare and create the second high energy compound, _____
|
PEP or phosphoenolpyruvate
|
|
what enzyme catalyzes the break down of PEP to form ATP
|
pyruvate kinase
|
|
Summary of the second 5 reactions – Payday!
-All reaction happen twice. -Carbon is oxidized, cofactor is reduced. -The high-energy compounds 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate and phosphoenolpyruvate are formed. -ATP is made by substrate-level phosphorylation. |

|
|
what vitamin is required for glycolysis
|
niacin (NAD)
|
|
This vitamin becomes part of a coenzyme. What role does this coenzyme play in glycolysis?
It accepts phosphates during substrate level phosphorylation. It accepts electrons from carbon. It isomerizes sugars. It forms a thioester bond during group transfer reactions. All of the above. |
it accepts electrons from carbon
|
|
If you see a kinase enzyme, then you are dealing with___ in someway or another
|
ATP
|
|
Which rxns are irreversible and why?
|
#1 --> converting glucose to g6p using ATP and hexokinase (large neg delta G
#3 --> adding a phosphate to form to 1,3 bisphosphoglycerate using ATP and phospho fructokinase #3---> Breakdown of PEP by pyruvate kinase to form ATP |
|
where does glycolysis occur?
|
cytoplasm
|
|
What is the committed step of glycolysis?
|
#3, the formation of fructose 1 6 bis phosphate
|
|
What are the two high energy compounds that when broken down, produce ATP
|
1 3 bisphosphoglycerate and PEP
|
|
when there is excess ATP, which step is inhibited?
|
the step 3, the regulatory/ committed step, which if hit, goes thru glyc. High ATP levels inhibit this
|
|
what do isozymes do?
|
allow for differences in glycolysis based on the type of tissue it occurs in
|
|
Imagine a cell with 100 molecules of glucose, 20 molecules of NAD+ and everything else needed to carry out glycolysis. How many ATP can the cell make?
