23
Q

role of phosphofructokinase-1, or PFK1

A

adds a phosphate to the 1st carbon on the fructos moleucle making fructose-1,6-bisphosphate.

24
Q

what makes us -2 on the enrgy counter

A

phosphofructokinase-1, or PFK1 adding a phosphate to fructose 6 phosphate

25
rate limitting step
how fast PFK1 converts fructose-6-phosphate to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate determines the speed at which all of glycolysis happens.
26
how do cells regulate PFK1
by using another enzyme called phosphofructokinase 2 - or PFK2.
27
can PFK2 phosphorykate glucose aswell as PFK1
yes howevrr it adds a phosphate to the second carbon instead making fructose 2 6 bisphosphate
28
what acitvates PFK2
insulin so when blood glcuose is up post meal
29
what does incraesed levels offructose-2,6 bisphosphate activate
PFK1
30
what does more PFK1 mean
the slowest step in glycolysis speeds up, and more glucose is turned into energy
31
what does the pancreas secrete whe glucose is low
glucagon
32
glucagon function
inhibits PFK2, resulting in less fructose-2,6-bisphosphate, which inhibits PFK1, decreasing the rate of PFK1 enzymes, and that slows down glycolysis
33
what else inhibits PFK1
citrate and ATP as cell has lots of enerfgy so doesnt need more
34
what happens when the cells DO need energy
PFK1 becomes very active in creating fructose 1 6 bisphosphate
35
what is Fructose 1,6 bisphosphate cleaved by
enzyme adolase into 3 carbon molecules - glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, or G3P, and dihydroacetone-phosphate, or DHAP.
36
complication of DHAP
cant go down glycolysis pathwya so an isomerase converts it into G3P
37
ho many g3p molecules are made per glucose
2
38
what is g3p converte dinto
1,3 bisphosphoglycerate, or 1,3-BPG, by an enzyme called G3P-dehydrogenase.
39
role of G3P-dehydrogenase
removes a hydrogen from G3P and gives it to a nearby NAD+ molecule, making NADH as a byproduct and adds a phosphate group to the 1st carbon of G3P, making 1,3-BPG
40
how many nadh molecules are made
2 as there are two g3ps
41
pathwya of nadh
enters the electron transport chain in the mitochondria and makes roughly 3 ATP.
42
role of phosphoglycerate kinase
removes a phosphate from the 1st carbon of 1,3-BPG and gives it to ADP, making 3-phosphoglycerate, and ATP as a byproduct
43
energy counter post phosphoglycerate kinase role
0
44
mutase role
moves the phosphate on 3-phosphoglycerate to the 2nd carbon, making 2-phosphoglycerate
45
enolase role
removes a water molecule from 2 phosphoglycerate and makes phosphoenolpyruvate - or PEP
46
pyruvate kinase role
transfers a phosphate from PEP to ADP, making pyruvate, and ATP as a byproduct
47
atp counter post pyrivate kinase
2
48
feedforward regulation
fructose-1,6 bisphosphate upregulates pyruvate kinase
49
what downregulates pyruvate kinase activity
high levels of ATP and the amino acid alanine
50
where does alanine come from
from skeletal muscle when fastingw
51
what does high levels of alanine signal
that the body needs to make new glucose
52
how many atp made
2
52
is glycolysis anaerobic or aerobic
anaerobic
53
how many atp used
4
54
end product of glycolysis
pyruvate
