Metabolism-CH2O and ATP Flashcards
(33 cards)
T/F ATP is found in select cells
F
All cells
What makes up ATP
Adenine, ribose, 3 phosphate radicals
Where is ATP present in cell
Cytoplasm and nucleoplasm of all cells
Energy currency of the body
ATP
90% of CH2O are used for
Production of ATP
What is final common pathway for transport of almost all carbs to tissue cells
Glucose
Where are large amounts of glucose phosphatase located?
Liver cells
Glucose-6-P degrades into what? How?
Glucose and phosphate via glucose phosphatase
How do monosaccharides diffuse through cell membrane?
Combine with glucose transporters, GLUT, to pass through membrane via facilitated diffusion
What increases facilitated diffusion of glucose?
Insulin
Example: After you eat a meal, insulin binds to insulin receptor and more GLUT goes to cell membrane to receive glucose.
What phosphorylates glucose?
Glucokinase
What are the 2 fates of glucose?
Made into G6P and then…
- Storage=turned into glycogen
- Make ATP=goes through glycolysis
What can store large quantities of glycogen?
Liver and muscle
Glycogenesis
Process of glycogen formation
Glycogenolysis
Process of glycogen breakdown to re-form glucose
***NOT reverse of glycogenesis
Explain glycogenolysis
Glucose molecule on each branch of glycogen polymer is split away via phosphrylation by phosphorylase which is inactive under resting conditions.
When is phosphorylase inactive?
Resting conditions
What can activate phosphorylase?
Epinephrine and glucagon
–>Increases cAMP which initiates cascade of chemical rxns that activates phosphorylase.
-Increase of glucagon when meals are missed. See more glycogen breakdown to makes glucose for E
4 broad steps to make ATP
1-Glycolysis
2-Acetly-CoA formation
3-Citirc acid cycle
4-Oxidative phosphorylation
How much ATP is made from one mole of glucose
38
Glycolysis uses one glucose molecule to make in how many steps
2 pyruvic acid
2 ATP
4 H
In 10 steps
The 2 pyruvic acids made from glycolysis will make
2 acetyl-CoA
2 CO2
4H (will go through oxidative phosphorlatino to make 6 ATP)
2 Acetyl-CoA will then go through CAC to make
4 CO2
16H
2 CoA
2 ATP
When is 95% of ATP made?
Oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria via chemiosmotic mechanism
