- How many ATP’s are formed in the process phosphoglyceraldehyde also known as PGAL?arrow_forward(3.7) Suppose the intracellular pH of an alkaliphile is 8.5 but the extracellular environment is at pH9.5. The cellular membrane of the bacterium has an electric potential of Af = -190 mV. How many c-subunits must the alkaliphilic ATP synthase have for it to work as an ATP synthase rather than proton pump? Assume that the free energy change for the phosphorylation of ADP to ATP is AFp = +50 kJ/mol. Answer:arrow_forwardA critical reaction in the production of energy to do work or drive chemical reactions in biological systems is the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate, ATP, to adenosine diphosphate, ADP, as described by the reaction ATP(aq)+H2O(l)⟶ADP(aq)+HPO2−4(aq)ATP(aq)+H2O(l)⟶ADP(aq)+HPO42−(aq) for which Δ?∘rxn=−30.5 kJ/molΔGrxn∘=−30.5 kJ/mol at 37.0 °C and pH 7.0. Calculate the value of Δ?rxnΔGrxn in a biological cell in which [ATP]=5.0 mM,[ATP]=5.0 mM, [ADP]=0.10 mM,[ADP]=0.10 mM, and [HPO2−4]=5.0 mM.[HPO42−]=5.0 mM. Δ?rxn=ΔGrxn= kJ/molarrow_forward
- How many ATP molecules could maximally be generated from one molecule of glucose, if the complete oxidation of 1 mole of glucose to CO2 and H2O yields 686 kcal of free energy and the useful chemical energy available in the high- energy phosphate bond of 1 mole of ATP is 12 kcal?arrow_forwardRecently, consumption of trans fatty acids has been linked to high blood cholesterol levels and increased risk of heart disease. The food industry has responded by decreasing use of "trans fats." Consider the following questions: (a) How do the structures and transition temperatures of trans, cis, and saturated fatty acids differ, and what are the effects on membrane fluidity? (b) Are trans fatty acids abundant in nature? (c) The major source of trans fats is hydrogenated oils. (The trans fats are produced by a side reaction during the hydrogenation process.) Why has the food industry used synthetically produced hydrogenated oils?arrow_forwardBoth oxidative phosphorylation and photophosphorylationtrap energy in high-energy bonds. How are these processesdifferent? How are they the same?arrow_forward
- The venom of the Eastern diamondback rattler and the Indian cobra contains phospholipase A2, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of fatty acids at the C-2 position of glycerophospholipids. The phospholipid breakdownproduct of this reaction is lysolecithin (lecithin is phosphatidylcholine). At high concentrations, this and other lysophospholipids act as detergents, dissolving the membranes of erythrocytes and lysing the cells. Extensive hemolysis may be lifethreatening.(a) All detergents are amphipathic. What are the hydrophilic and hydrophobic portions of lysolecithin?(b) The pain and inflammation caused by a snake bite can be treated with certain steroids. What is the basis of this treatment?(c) Though the high levels of phospholipase A2 in venom can be deadly, this enzyme is necessary for a variety of normal metabolic processes. What are these processes?arrow_forwardWhich type of reaction is catalyzed by the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide? O Hydride ion transfer O Acyl group transfer O Proton transfer O Aldehyde transfer O Carbon dioxide transferarrow_forwardAre fatty acid propyl esters (biodiesel) formed in the acid-catalysed esterification/transesterification reaction on waste oil more or less polar than glycerol?

Oxidation of 1 mol of a typical dietary fat like tristearin (C57H116O6) yields enough energy toform 458 mol of ATP. How many molecules of ATP can form per gram of (a) glucose; (b) tristearin?arrow_forward
