- If, in addition to the constraints on glucose concentration listed previously, we have in the liver cell ATP concentration = 5 mM and ADP concentration = 5 mM , what is the theoretical concentration of glucose-6-phosphate at equilibrium at pH=7.4 and 37 ∘C ? Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. Please type answer note write by hend.arrow_forwardIn the Nernst equation [V = 62 log10 (Co/ Ci)], the term Co represents: the intracellular concentration of calcium the extracellular concentration of potassium the extracellular concentration of sodium the intracellular concentration of potassium the membrane potential (in millivolts)arrow_forwardEstimate the flux (mg/cm2/s) by diffusion of estrogen (a steroid) through a lipid bilayer cell membrane when assuming the diffusion coefficient for estrogen across the lipid bilayer is 10^–6 cm2/s, and that the initial concentration of estrogen in the extracellular fluid is 1 ng/mL and 0 in the cytoplasm.arrow_forward

- Digoxin, a toxin derived from the foxglove (shown), can be used to treat heart disorders such as atrial fibrillation. Digoxin's mechanism of action is to Inhibit the Na+/K+ ATPase. Which of the following is the most likely side effect of Digoxin treatment? Failure to transport glucose into cells during an extended fast O Failure to transport glucose into cells after after eating a large meal O Enhanced response of muscle cells to Acetylcholine O Failure to transport Cl" out of the cell using direct active transportarrow_forwardSee imagearrow_forwardIntramitochondrial ATP concentrations are about 5 mM, and phosphate concentration is about 10 mM. If ADP is five times more abundant than AMP,calculate the molar concentrations of ADP and AMP at an energy charge of 0.85. Calculate ∆G for ATP hydrolysis at 37 °C under these conditions.The energy charge is the concentration of ATP plus half the concentration of ADP divided by the total adenine nucleotide concentration.arrow_forward
- Intracellular concentrations in resting muscle are as follows: fructose- 6-phosphate, 1.0 mM; fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, 10 mM; AMP, 0.1 mM; ADP, 0.5 mM; ATP, 5 mM; and P, 10 mM. Is the phosphofructokinase reac- tion in muscle more or less exergonic than under standard conditions? By how much?arrow_forwardThe concentration of glucose in your circulatory system is maintained near 5.0 mM by the actions of the pancreatic hormones glucagon and insulin. Glucose is imported into cells by protein transporters that are highly specific for binding glucose. Inside the liver cells the imported glucose is rapidly phosphorylated to give glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P). This is an ATP-dependent process that consumes 1 mol ATP per mol of glucose. Given the steady-state intracellular concentrations below, calculate the theoretical maximum concentration of G-6-P inside a liver cell at 37 °C, pH = 7.2 when the glucose concentration outside the cell (i.e., [glucoseloutside) is 5.0 mM: ATP = 4.7 mM; ADP = 0.15 mM; P, = 6.1 mM For: ATP + H,O ADP + P + H* AG" = -30.5 kJ/mol and G-6-P + H,0 -→ Glucose + P AG" = -13.8 kJ/mol The glucose phosphorylation reaction is ATP + glucosenside » ADP + glucose-6-phosphate + H+arrow_forwardThe conversion of glucose to glucose 6-phosphate is an endergonic reaction (eql below). The second equation below is an exergonic reaction that can occur in all cells. Considering this information, how can the reaction in equation 3 proceed? EQ1: Glucose + Pj --> glucose 6-phosphate EQ2: ATP + H20 --> ADP + Pj EQ3: Glucose + ATP --> glucose 6-phosphate + ADP Select one: a. The energy required to make Eq3 spontaneous is provided by the enzyme catalyzing the reaction b. The energy released from equation 1 is more than the energy consumed in equation 2 making the overall reaction AG negative and the reaction spontaneous. c. The energy released from equation 2 is more than the energy consumed in equation 1 making the overall reaction AG positive and the reaction spontaneous. d. The energy released from equation 2 is more than the energy consumed in equation 1 making the overall reaction AG negative and the reaction spontaneous. e.
