the connection of fatty acids to albumin is through which type of bond
non-covalent bond
where does beta-oxidation occur
in the mito matrix
the primary structure of a protein determines the
overall 3-D shape of a protein
chylomicrons have the
lowest protein density and the highest lipid content
enzyme activity is influenced by
Ph, temperature, and substrate concentration
what vitamin do eyes rely on
vitamin A
enzymes do what
lower the activation energy and increase the rate of the forward and reverse reaction
liquid chromatography reveals
different effusion rates due to the separation by size
how does hemoglobin bind oxygen
positive cooperative binding
fructose cannot be in the initial reactions of
glycolysis
fructose, galactose, and glucose are all
hexose sugars
lipid synthesis occurs in the
endoplasmic reticulum
fatty acid synthesis occurs in the
cytosol
any gluconeogenic precursor must contain
a three carbon backbone
involuntary smooth muscles of the GI tract are unable to
synthesize glycogen
main site of gluconeogenic function
the liver
where does the pentose phosphate pathway occur
in the cytoplasm
what is the function of the pentose phosphate pathway
to produce NADPH and ribose-5’ phosphate
what is NADPH used for
reductive biosynthesis and protection against oxidative damage
what is ribose-5’ phosphate necessary for
DNA synthesis
All oxidative branches of the Pentose phosphate pathway are
irreversible
what is the starting point in the oxidative branch of the PPP
Glucose-6-phosphate
when ribose-5-phosphate is needed what is converted
ribulose-5-phosphate will be converted
what happens to ribose-5-phosphate when it is not needed
it must be converted to glycolysis-necessary compounds
