How many molecules of valine would be required for one molecule of glucose?
Using the appropriate amount of valine determined above, how many NADH, FADH2, and ATP would be produced
or consumed by the conversion of valine into glucose?
Assume that any net production of NADH and FADH2 is used in electron transport. What is the maximum net ATP
production in the human mitochondria (10 c subunits)? Don't forget to add/subtract the ATP determined in the
above question.
The second high energy intermediate metabolite of glycolysis that can be used for substrate level phosphorylation is also a precursor molecule for the synthesis of several amino acids. Name 5 of these amino acids.
With fatty infiltration of the liver, the synthesis of phospholipids is disturbed. What is the biochemical basis of the development of such a condition? What are its possible nests? Justify the answer.
