43
Q

What is/are the substrates of reaction 1? (in the forward direction)

A

ATP-Mg2+ and glucose

44
Q

What is the mechanism of reaction 1?

A

Proximity effects.
Two binding sites for ATP-Mg2+ and glucose. Upon binding, changes confirmation, bringing the substrates together to cause the reaction to occur instantaneously.

45
Q

What is/are the inhibitor(s) of reaction 1?

Allosteric inhibitor (G6P)
46

Exergonic

47
Q

Do cancer cells upregulate or downregulate hexokinase?

A

upregulate

48
Q

Under what conditions does uncomplexed ATP accumulate?

A

When energy is barely used and thus, ATP is plentiful. Mg2+ is no longer able to complex with all the ATP so glycolysis is interrupted and glycogen is made instead.

49
Q

What is the substrate of reaction 2 in the forward direction?

A

G6P

50
Q

What is the mechanism for reaction 2?

A

MG2+ is required!

Specific for G6P/F6P

51
Q

What is the main control for this reaction (2) and, what can be inferred from this?

A

The main control is concentration. We can infer that this reaction is reversible and that delta G is nearly zero.

52
Q

G6P is a(n) _____hexose whilst F6P is a(n) _____hexose.

A

aldohexose - G6P

ketohexose - F6P

53
Q

What is the enzyme of reaction 3?

A

Phosphofructokinase-1

54
Q

What is/are the substrate(s) of reaction 3 in the forward direction?

A

ATP-Mg2+ and F6P

55
Q

How is this enzyme (PFK-1) controlled? What are its inhibitors/activators?

A

Important enzyme for regulation.
ATP and citrate are both inhibitors.
ATP is an allosteric inhibitor.
ADP, AMP and Fructose-2,6-biphosphate are allosteric activators.

56
Q

What is adnylate kinase?
What occurs if ATP concentration is decreased?
If the kinase is active, what accumulates?

A

Enzyme that readily equilibrates 2 ADP into 1 ATP and 1 AMP.
Enzyme that is active when ATP levels are low and ADP levels are high.
K = [ATP][AMP]/[ADP]^2
Decreased ATP –> pushes reaction forward
If the kinase is active, AMP accumulates.

57
Q

What are other features of this reaction (3)?

A

Commits the cell to glycolysis.

Very exergonic

58
Q

What is/are the substrate(s) of reaction 4?

A

FBP

59
Q

What is the mechanism of reaction 4?

A

Aldolase catalyzes the cleavage of FBP by aldol condensation mechanism.
Products of this reaction are depleted rapidly and this reaction is pulled forward by reactions 5 and 6.

60
Q

How is reaction 4 pulled forward if it is endergonic?

A

Reactions 5 and 6 quickly deplete the products of this reaction, pulling it forward.

61
Q

How is reaction 4 controlled?

A

concentration control

62
Q

What is the mechanism for reaction 5?

A

Reversible reaction catalyzed by acid-based catalysis. His95 and Glu165 of the enzyme are involved.

63
Q

How is reaction 5 controlled?

A

endergonic, pulled forward as product is used up.

64
Q

What occurs if step 5 is blocked?

A

Glycolysis proceeds at half the rate.

65
Q

What is the most important fact about reaction 6?

A

It’s the reaction responsible for the generation of energy in glycolysis as a whole.

66
Q

Once again, reaction 6 is endergonic, how is it pulled foward?

A

Pulled forward by reaction 7.

1,3-BPG is very unstable.

67
Q

In reaction 6, an _______ is converted to a _______ group.

A

aldehyde –> carboxyl

68
Q

In reaction 6, oxidation of the aldehyde does two things. These are?

A

1 - Make a high-energy phosphate bond

2 - Produce a reduced moiety (NADH)

69
Q

What is the oxidizing agent of this reaction? (6)

A

NAD+, which is reduced to NADH

70
Q

What drives the formation of acylphosphate during reaction 6?

A

Free energy from the oxidation reaction.

71
Q

What is the evidence supporting the GADPH reaction?

A

1 - Iodoacetate inhibits this reaction, indicating the involvement of a cysteine residue of the enzyme
2 - Tritium from GAP is trasnferred directly to NAD which indicates that the hydrogen transfer is under the form of a hydride ion
3 . Labelled ATP does not cause the product to be labelled. Pi is instead transferred providing evidence for the acyl enzyme intermediate.

72
Q

What are the substrates for reaction 7?

A

1,3-BPG and ADP-Mg2+

73
Q

What is the mechanism for reaction 7?

A

Proximity effect.
Coupled to reaction 6.
ATP is generated by substrate-level phosphorylation

74
Q

Where does the energy for this reaction come from? What is one reason for 1,3-BPG being desperate to hydrolyze?

A

Energy for this reaction comes from the highly energetic 1,3-BPG.
3-PG is resonance hybridized.

75
Q

In reaction 8, something is very rarely recorded in the mixture. What is it?

A

2,3-BPG

76
Q

What is the enzyme for reaction 8 and what is important about it?

A

Phosphoglycerate mutase.

Phosphorylated His-179 residue.

77
Q

Is the product of the forward reaction of step 8 stable or not?

A

2-PG is stable

78
Q

What is the mechanism for reaction 9?

A

Dehydration of 2-PG.
1 - Rapid extraction of a proton at C-2 by a general base of the enzyme, generating a carbanion
b - abstracted proton easily exchanged with solvent
2 - Rate limiting elimination of OH

79
Q

How do we know that the exchange in reaction 9 involves a proton?

A

Tritiated 2-PG will cause water to become labeled. Thus, the exchange does not involve a hydride ion.

80

K+ and Mg2+ are required.
