- How many steps in gluconeogenesis are not the exact reversal of the steps in glycolysis? What kind of conversion of substrate to product does each involve? What is the common theme in each of these reactions?arrow_forwardOf the 36 molecules of ATP produced by the complete metabolism of glucose, how many are produced directly in glycolysis alone, that is, before the common pathway?arrow_forwardIdentify the following as a characteristic of one or more following process: glycolysis, glycogenesis, Glycogenolysis, and gluconeogenesis. 1. Glucose 6-phosphate is the initial reactant 2. Glucose is the final product 3. Glucose 6-phosphate is produced in the first step 4. UTP is involved in the process 5. ADP is converted to ATP in this processarrow_forward
- 4.1 What are the various pathways by which glucose is utilized? 4.2 State the biomedical importance of glycolysis? 4.3 State the irreversible steps in glycolysis? 4.4 State THREE differences between hexokinase and glucokinase ? 4.5 What is glycolysis? What are the rate limiting enzymes of glycolysis?arrow_forward1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. What two enzymes in glycolysis are regulated by high ATP concentrations? Write out the substrates, products and enzyme involved for the two ATP producing steps in glycolysis. What bonds are cleaved in fructose-1,6-bisphosphate to form dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate? Phosphates are added to glucose in two separate steps to produce fructose-1,6- bisphosphate. (a) Which position ends up on the 3 C-product that is used for ATP production? (b) What is the function of the phosphate on the other carbon? What molecule acts as an oxidizing agent in glycolysis? When fructose is the carbon source what carbon is phosphorylated? What 3-carbon phosphorylated product results from aldolase B? Under anaerobic conditions what is the fate of pyruvate? What product of pyruvate is used to form citrate in the TCA cycle? Write out the substrates, products and enzymes responsible for the three steps oxidizing the original carbon skeleton of…arrow_forwarda) What happens during the two phases of glycolysis? Write the reaction steps of glycolysis showing their the enzymes that catalyze the reactions. (Draw only the structure of the first and last product) b) How many net moles of ATP can be synthesized from each mol of glucose? c) The overall equation for glycolysis?arrow_forward
- Gluconeogenesis involves the synthesis of glucose from non-carbohydrate precursors. The organs most active from the perspective of gluconeogenesis are the liver and the kidney, which supply glucose to the organs that cannot synthesize it, yet have a strict need for glucose as an energy source. Gluconeogenesis requires several equilibrium steps of glycolysis to run in the reverse direction. What are the reactants and products when GAPDH runs in the direction of gluconeogenesis Glycolysis as a ten-step pathway from glucose to pyruvate is Favourable. Is gluconeogenesis favourable under standard conditions (ie. is the ΔGo’ for the pathway negative)? c. What is true about the thermodynamics of the regulated steps in glycolysis. Compare ΔG and ΔGo’ for those steps in both directions.arrow_forwardThe following nutrient molecule is digested and transported to a cell where it undergoes further catabolism: HO HO он OH HO- OH OH OH In the table below, list the important products of the complete glycolysis of this molecule. • In the first column of the table, write the chemical formula, name, or standard biochemical symbol for a product molecule. In the second column, write the total number of these molecules produced. Add Row • Only list the important products, including (1) molecules with any of the carbon atoms originally in the molecule above, (2) energy storage molecules (like ATP), and (3) any newly oxidized or reduced coenzymes. • List each product molecule on a separate row. You can add more rows to the table if you need them. • Be sure you write the number of product molecules formed by the complete glycolysis of the molecule above. • If the molecules does not undergo glycolysis at all, check the box under the table and leave the table blank. product (name, chemical…arrow_forwardFructose can enter glycolysis by hexokinase. If fructose is used for glycolysis what enzyme can be skipped in glycolysis? And why can this enzyme be skipped if fructose is used for glycolysis?arrow_forward
- Classify each enzyme of glycolysis into one of the six classes of enzymes. What class of enzymes has the most representatives in glycolysis? Why is this consistent with the goals of glycolysis? Why are ligases not represented in glycolysis?arrow_forwarda) How many moles of ATP can be gained from the catabolism of the following substrates to pyruvate? 2 Mole mannose 2 Mole lactose mole glycerol. b) Name three metabolic processes in the cell that are enhanced and two that are inhibited in response to the hormone insulinarrow_forwardOxidative phosphorylation has three reaction products.(a) What is the energy-carrying product?(b) What are the other two products?arrow_forward
