Q

where does the pentose phosphate pathway occur

A

in the cytoplasm

18
Q

what is the function of the pentose phosphate pathway

A

to produce NADPH and ribose-5’ phosphate

19
Q

what is NADPH used for

A

reductive biosynthesis and protection against oxidative damage

Q

All oxidative branches of the Pentose phosphate pathway are

22
Q

what is the starting point in the oxidative branch of the PPP

A

Glucose-6-phosphate

23
Q

when ribose-5-phosphate is needed what is converted

A

ribulose-5-phosphate will be converted

24
Q

what happens to ribose-5-phosphate when it is not needed

A

it must be converted to glycolysis-necessary compounds

25
what is the most important component for blood clotting
fibrin while platelets and plasmin are also important fibrin is the most
26
isozymes
are substances that catalyze the same reaction but have different structures
27
London dispersion interactions are an example of
induced dipole bonds
28
if a bond is nonpolar than it must have what interactions
induced dipole-induced dipole interactions
29
prochiral
are those molecules that can be converted from chiral to achiral in one step
30
what is the rate limiting step of DNA replication
time needed for the polymerase to clamp on
31
endopeptidases
are specific enzymes that cleave peptides at a particular point
32
exopeptidases
cleave at the ends of peptides
33
paper chromatography
will have the nonpolar substance travel further than the polar substance
34
sedimentation coefficient
ribosomes make subunits that include the sedimentation units such as 30S, 40S etc.
35
mg2+ in polymerization acts as a
catalyst
36
hemoglobin displays cooperativity that is
greater than 1 on the hill coefficient
37
hill coefficient displays
cooperativity with 1 being positive cooperativity and -1 being negative cooperativity and 0 having no cooperativity

protein digestion occurs in
the stomach with pepsin
39
a barr body is the
inactivation of one of the x chromosomes
40
maternal imprinting
means that the gene inhereted from the mother is not passed on or expressed. (inactive)
