(b)( ) In mature erythrocytes (red blood cells) the end product of glycolysis is lactate because of the absence of mitochondria. On the right is a table comparing the rate of lac- tate production in hemolysates (lysed cells) of human RBCs as a function of pH with dif- ferent substrates introduced into the glyco- lytic pathway. The hemolysate was fortified with 30 μmoles substrate, 7.5 μmoles MgCl2, 10 μmoles disodium phosphate, 1.5 μmoles NAD* and 5 μmoles ATP in a volume of 5 TABLE 3-LACTATE PRODUCTION IN FORTIFIED HEMOLYSATES OF HUMAN ERYTHROCYTES* Substrate Glucose Glucose Glucose-6-phosphate Glucose-6-phosphate Fructose-1,6-diphosphate Fructose-1,6-diphosphate Lactate production† No. of experiments pH 6 7.1 2.03 ± 0.91 6 7.8 4.76 ± 1.09 5 7.1 10-731-88 5 7.8 12.34 ±2.92 5 7.0 7.15±0.73 5 7.7 7.15±0.80 mL.

after a 5 g onion sample is divided into two equal parts, heat treatment to one of these partsit is being implemented. Then both heat-treated and non-treated parts are 10 times their weightit is ground in an environment containing as much buffer and the determination of pyruvate in the supernatants obtainedit's being done.a) As a result of measurements taken at 520 nm; absorbance value for the heat-treated sample;it was found that the absorbance value in the sample that was not heat treated was 0.123 and the absorbance value in the sample that was not heat treated was 0.520.The equation of the calibration accuracy for pyruvate is that y = 0.1367x – 0.001 (nmol/mL)according to the onion sample; a) independent of alinase activity; b) dependent on alinase activityand c) calculate the total pyruvate amounts in terms of nmol/g of onion.b) How is there a relationship between the activity of the enzyme allinase in onions and the amount of pyruvate?Dec,please explain.
