- Explain how epinephrine can serve as both a neurotransmitter and a hormone without "crossover."2C. A “pulse-chase" experiment using "C-labeled glucose can be carried out on a yeast extract that is maintained under strictly anaerobic conditions. The experiment consists of incubating a small amount of "C-labeled substrate (the pulse) with the yeast extract just long enough for each intermediate in the fermentation pathway to become labeled. The label is then “chased" through the pathway by the addition of excess unlabeled glucose. The chase effectively prevents any further entry of labeled glucose into the pathway. 2 ADP 2 ATP Glucose ---> CH3 2 NAD* 2 NADH 2 Pyruvate H H H-C-OH C=0 CH3 CH3 2 co, 2 Ethanol 2 Acetylaldehyde (1) If [1-"C]glucose (glucose labeled at C-1 with "C) is used as a substrate, will there be any "C in the product (ii) Lactic acid is the final fermentation product in vertebrates, while ethanol is the final fermentation product in yeast.

Pepsinogen (an inactive form of the enzyme) that forms in the main cells of the stomach has a molecular weight of 42,000 D. In the gastric juice, the pepsinogen turns into the active enzyme pepsin, while its molecular weight decreases to 35,000 D. Explain the mechanism of regulation of enzyme activity. To do this: a) draw a scheme for regulating the activation of pepsin; b) name the class of the enzyme that converts pepsinogen to pepsin; c) indicate which levels of protein structural organization change when pepsin is activated.
