Summary Introduction

To review:

The regulation of aerobic respiration and the way in which photosynthesis suppresses mitochondria respiration in plants.

Introduction:

Cytoplasmic ATP (adenosine triphosphate):ADP and NADH:NAD+ ratios rise on illumination. Transportation of DHAP (dihydrogen ammonium phosphate) from the stroma to cytoplasm leads to conversion of DHAP into glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, and further into glycerate-1,3-bisphosphate. The reverse of this reaction occurs in cytoplasm and chloroplast. This shuttle in reaction results in a decrease in the activity of mitochondrial respiration.

Aerobic respiration is a process in which plants use environmental oxygen and carbohydrate to produce energy. This is an antiphotosynthesis pathway and takes placeusually when photosynthesis does not occur. Aerobic respiration is a combination of mainly threepathways: glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain (ETC). Also, lipid and protein synthesis play a role in this.

Biochemistry What is the process of "transamination" in either the muscles or the liver, that involves keto acid or glutamic acid? Please explain how the steps work. Thank you!
Biochemistry Please help. Thank you What is the importance of glutamic acid in the metabolism of nitrogen from amino acids? (we know therole; it’s used to remove the nitrogen from amino acids so that the remaining carbon skeleton can bebroken down by the “usual” pathways, but what is the important, unique role that only glutamicacid/glutamate can do?)
