Q

3 parts of respiration

A

Glycolysis - pyruavate made adn NADH

TAC - NADH is made and substrate level phosphorylation makes ATP

Oxidative phosdphorylation - ATP and O2 is reduced to water

Q

how do anabolic reactions obey 2nd law of thermodynamics

A

Although entropy of system decreases, the entropy of the surroundings increases by an even bigger fsactor to give DeltaS-

Q

which reactions release energy

24
Q

by which substance are enzymes in glycolysis inhibited

25
by which substance are enzymes in glycolysis activated
ADP
26
why are there inhibitory pathways in respiration
so you dont make too much ATP because it is too unstable due to high energy phosphoanhydride bonds
27
type of inhibition provided by ATP
non competitive too small to be a substrate analogue
28
type of activation provided by ADP
non competitive
29
allosteric
non competitive
30
what can pyruvate be converted into, ANAEROBC?
ANAEROBIC: ethanol and CO2 by pyruvate decarboxylase or lactic acid by pyruvate dehydrogenase
31
6 metabolic reactions
HAGILO **_Hydrolysis_** Addition or removal of groups Group transfer Isomerisation Ligation involving ATP cleavage Oxidartion reductiion
32
pyruvate decarboxylase
converts pyruvate into ethanol and CO2 NADH-\>NAD+
33
what can pyruvate be converted into, AEROBIC
AEROBIC: acetate by pyrvuate dehydrogenase
34
number opf steps in glycolysis
1o
35
what is thge difference between group removal and group transfer
has group travelled between 2 molecules? Y - GT N - GR
36
37
group add/rem definition
when group is added it is onto a double bond when group is removed a single bond is formed
38
glyc
greek for sugar
39
which enzyme splits fructose bishphosphate
aldose
40
enyme to make fructose bisphosphate
phosphofructokinase
41
42
work pout enzyme name
1 TYPE OF REACTION(S) 2 NAME OF SUBSTRATE
43
why is fuctose 1,6 phosphate made in glycolysis?
Unstbale compound with high free energy symmetrical so can be split into 2 mimilar 3C molecules
44
which is the first commited step of glycolysis
45
why is phosphorylation of glucose not foirsy commited step of glycolysis
can also be used for glycogen synthesis pathway
46
enzymopathy
enzyme disease enzyme deficiency
47
problem with muscles stores of ATP
only enough for 1s of contraction - oo little
48
what does PCR system do
buffer ATP concentrations Phosphoprylation of ADP using PI off PCr catalysed by creatine kinase
49
Different systems to provide ATP in excercise
muscle store pcr anaerobic aerobic
50
where does link reaction occur
mitochondria
51
acetyl coa structure
acetyl is R-C=0=R acetyl coa has R as methyl and other R very similar to a nucleotide with sulfur
52
whst does brain respire
glucose
53
what enzyme does Vitamin B assist
pyruvate dehydrogenase to make acetate
54
what happens if there is no VitB
no acetate can be formed, so very little energy
