- Copper is a cofactor in several enzymes, including lysyl oxidase and superoxide dismutase.Ceruloplasmin, a deep-blue glycoprotein, is the principal copper-containing protein in blood. It isused to transport Cu2+ and maintain appropriate levels of Cu2+ in the body’s tissues.Ceruloplasmin also catalyzes the oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+, an important reaction in ironmetabolism. Because the metal is widely found in foods, copper deficiency is rare in humans.Deficiency symptoms include anemia, leukopenia (reduction in blood levels of white blood cells),bone defects, and weakened arterial walls. The body is partially protected from exposure toexcessive copper (and several other metals) by metallothionein, a small, metal-binding protein thatpossesses a large proportion of cysteine residues. Certain metals (most notably zinc and cadmium)induce the synthesis of metallothionein in the intestine and liver.In Menkes syndrome intestinal absorption of copper is defective.

- Does any step of the citric acid cycle directly produce ATP? Explain.arrow_forwardThioesters play important roles in glycolysis and tca cycle. List which reactions involve thioesters.arrow_forwardArsenate (AsO³-) closely resembles phosphate in structure and reactivity. However, arsenate esters are unstable and are spontaneously hydrolyzed. If arsenate is added to actively respiring mitochondria, what would be the effect on ATP synthesis? ATP synthesis will decrease because cells require less energy when arsenate is available. ATP synthesis will not be affected because mitochondria are incapable of taking up arsenate. ATP synthesis will stop due to the formation arsenate-ADP anhydrides. ATP synthesis will increase because arsenate anhydride hydrolysis increases ATP turnover. If arsenate is added to actively respiring mitochondria, what would be the most likely effect on the rate of the electron-transport chain? The rate of electron transport will decrease, because arsenate inhibits Complexes I and II. The rate of electron transport will decrease, because arsenate inhibits the citric acid cycle. The rate of electron transport will increase, because arsenate increases the demand…arrow_forward
