Chapter 17, Problem 15P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

To explain where the citric acid cycle occurs and the starting product and end product.

Introduction:

Citric acid cycle is a combination of series of chemical reactions that take place to convert the Acetyl-Co-A to energy carrying products such as ATP and GTP. As this is a series of oxidation reactions, released electrons are used to convert NAD+ into NADH and FAD into FADH2.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

To explain where the glycolysis occurs and the starting product and end product.

Introduction:

Glycolysis is the series of reactions that converts carbohydrates like glucose to energy carrying molecules and Acetyl-CoA.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

To explain where the Oxidative Phosphorylation occurs and the starting product and end product.

Introduction:

Oxidative Phosphorylation is the process of production of ATP by donating electron from NADH and FADH2 through a series of biochemical reactions.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

To explain where the fatty acid synthesis occurs and the starting product and end product.

Introduction:

Fatty acid synthesis is the series of chemical reaction that occur in the cell to produce fatty acids from Acetyl-CoA using fatty acid synthase enzymes

Do schwann cells produce or act as myelin in the peripheral nervous system? I know that they encase and wrap around axons, but where does the myelin come into play?
The enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate to lactatein skeletal muscle cells using NAD/NADH during anaerobic “balanced” fermentation.Answer the following questions about this reaction. (a) Write out the two reductive half reactions and indicate the E ̊' for each half reaction. Write out the full balanced reaction for the pyruvate to lactate rxn and indicate the ∆E ̊' for the reaction. (b) What is the free energy change under standard state conditions for thisreaction? Which direction is spontaneous?(c) Assume that in skeletal muscle cells the ratio of [NAD+] to [NADH] is 100, and that the[pyruvate] = 0.40 mM and [lactate] = 4.0 mM. What is the free energy change (∆G')for the conversion of pyruvate to lactate? Indicate the direction in which the reactionis spontaneous under these cellular conditions.
Why did the authors worry about the temperature-dependent solubility of the carriers in thebilayer? How did the authors determine whether the effect of freezing the lipid bilayer wasto decrease the solubility of the carriers (nonactin and valinomycin) or whether the effectwas to impair their ability to diffuse through the membrane (decrease their mobility)?
