Write out the citric acid cycle. Show specific structures for each step. DO NOT write anymechanisms but do show what leaves the cycle at each specific step. Include partial but revealingstructures for the coenzymes and co-substrates used in the cycle.
Give the Steps, Enzyme/s involved, Electron carriers, ATP Generation, End product and significance of the following metabolic pathway: Oxidative Phosphorylation (explain in 1-3 sentences only) P.S add row if necessary
The catalytic activity of enzymes depends on the presence of appropriate environmental conditions. Pepsin is a digestive enzyme found in the stomach and facilitates the digestion of large proteins. If pepsin is removed from this acidic environment of the stomach and is instead placed in a more basic environment, it will cease to function. Describe the specific effect that a change in environmental pH will have on pepsin and explain how this change can lead to inhibition of its catalytic activity. Respond in 4 to 6 complete sentences.
For each of the statements below about the dUTPase enzyme, mark whether it is true or false. If it is false, change the language to make the statement true. _______If the dUTPase enzyme is the rate determining step in a larger metabolic pathway, the reaction likely lies near to equilibrium and is irreversible. _______For the dUTPase reaction, it is not likely that DG’ = DG°’ _______ dUTPase has a higher affinity for its substrate than for its product, but both of these are higher than the affinity for the transition state _______Kinetic analysis of dUTPase using Michaelis-Menten methods assumes that the formation of the E*S complex has a large negative value for DG
Biological oxidation refers to the process in which organisms oxidize and decompose organic matter to produce carbon dioxide and water and release energy. Common forms in human body are (1) direct transfer of hydrogen atoms, or (2) adding water first and then dehydrogenation (i.e. indirect oxygen addition). Please give one example of each metabolic pathway, and ask for the names of specific substrates, products and enzymes.
