Arsenate can mimic inorganic phosphate in enzyme reactions. Which step in glycoylsis has the potential to have the asenate ion incorporated instead of a phoshpate? Frc-6-P --> Frc -1.6-BP GAP - 1,3-BPG -> 1,3-BPG --> 3-PG Gluc --> Glc-6-P
Which of the following statements regarding proline is INCORRECT? It is an imino acid Maintains healthy myocardium It helps strengthen joints Free proline can be hydroxylated to hydroxyproline 2.Which of the following compounds contributed to the two nitrogen atoms in urea ? Ammonia and glutamate Ornithine and aspartate Ammonia and alanine Glutamine and glutamate 3. Which of following statements about hydroxyproline is INCORRECT? There is no codon for hydroxyproline. It is present in large amounts in collagen. Hydroxylation of proline residues is catalysed by a dioxygenase. Free proline cannot be hydroxylated to hydroxyproline.
Why is there no blue color with Iodine when amylose reacts with saliva? Amylase in saliva causes the amylose chain to uncoil so Iodine is not trapped. Amylase in saliva reacts with iodine making it unable to complex with the amylose coil. Amylase in saliva causes the amylose chain to break into short chains and then into glucose which does not coil and so does not trap iodine. Amylase in saliva will replace the I2 in the amylose coil and so remove the color.
Endothelial cells lining blood vessels can produce large amounts of nitric oxide (NO). The NO diffuses out of the endothelial cells and into smooth muscle cells that are in close proximity. In the smooth muscle cells, NO binds to an enzyme, X, to rapidly increase intracellular levels of Y. Y causes rapid relaxation of smooth muscle cells surrounding the blood vessels. The actions of the Y molecule are controlled by enzyme Z which degrades protein Y into a non-functional form, blocking vasoconstriction and retaining high blood flow. Identify molecules X, Y and Z and explain how the drug Viagra targets this pathway.
Which of the following conditions will produce active glycogen phosphorylase? AMP АТР Phosphorylation of Serine 14 Glucose Glucose-6-Phosphate Phosphorylation of Serine 14 and AMP Phosphorylation of Serine 14 and ATP

Part B Some nonessential amino acids are synthesized in the body by a simple transamination. The transamination between oxaloacetate, an a-keto acid, and glutamate, a amino acid with the side chain -CH₂CH₂COO proceeds according to the following reaction: OOC-CH₂-C-COO + OOC-CH₂CH₂CH COO OOC-CH₂CH₂-C-COO + amino acid 2 NH₂+ Predict the structure of the amino acid product, indicated by amino acid 2, for the reaction. Draw the molecule on the canvas by choosing buttons from the Tools (for bonds), Atoms, and Advanced Template toolbars. The single bond is active by default. Include all hydrogen atoms and formal charges.
