Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The heart is a muscular organ. It is a vital organ of the body, which pumps blood through the blood vessels in the body. In vertebrates, it is separated into four chambers: two ventricles (left and right) and two atria (left as well as right).

The heart comprises four valves that allow blood to flow unidirectionally through the heart and its chambers. There are two sets of valves: the atrioventricular valve and the semilunar valve.

The metabolic pathway below is used for the production of the purine nucleotides adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and guanosine monophosphate (GMP) in eukaryotic cells. Assume each arrow represents a reaction catalyzed by a different enzyme. Using the principles of feedback inhibition, propose a regulatory scheme for this pathway that ensures an adequate supply of both AMP and GMP, and prevents the buildup of Intermediates A through G when supplies of both AMP and GMP are adequate.
