Exam 5 Flashcards
Catabolic pathway
Degrade macromolecules and nutrients to capture energy
Form NADH FADH2
Anabolic pathway
Use energy available from ATP hydrolysis and oxidation of reducing equivalents to synthesize bio molecules
Metabolic flux
Determined by level of enzyme activity, and bioavailability of substrates
Enantiomer
Mirror image isomer
Epimer
Differ in Teheran OH position at one chiral carbon
Anomer
When simple sugar goes through intramolecular reactions to form 5 or 6 member end ring
Reducing sugar
React with oxidizing agents
Requires an aldehyde group
OH on right
Down
OH on left
Point up
Glycosidic bond
Formed between the anomeric hydroxyl of one sugar and OH of another
Step 1 glycolysis
Investment phase
Glucose changed to G6P by hexokinase
Activates glucose for glycolysis, irreversible
step 2 glycolysis
G6P made into F6P by PGI
Step 3 glycolysis
F6P made into F16BP by PFK1
First committed step of glycolysis, irreversible and regulated
Step 4 glycolysis
F16BP made into G3P and dihydroxyacetone-P by alsolase
Step 5 glycolysis
Dihydroxyacetone-P made into second G3P by TPI
End of investment phase
Step 6 glycolysis
2 G3P made into 13BPG using GAPDH
Release 2 NADH
Step 7 glycolysis
2 13BPG made into 2 3PG by PGK
Release 2 ATP
Step 8 glycolysis
2 3PG made into 2 2-PG by PGM
Step 9 glycolysis
2 2-PG made into 2 phosphoenolpryruvte by Enolase
Step 10 glycolysis
2 phosphoenolpyruvate made into 2 pyruvate by PK
Irreversible and regulated, harvest 2 ATP
