. Intracellular concentrations in resting muscle are as follows: fructose-
6-phosphate, 1.0 mM; fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, 10 mM; AMP, 0.1
mM; ADP, 0.5 mM; ATP, 5 mM; and P;, 10 mM. Is the phosphofruc-
tokinase reaction in muscle more or less exergonic than under stan-
dard conditions? By how much?
. The transition temperatures of the following membranes are -36°C, 23°C, and 41°C. Which
membrane correlates with which transition temperature? Explain your answer.
Membrane 1) made from entirely phosphatidylcholine and stearate fatty acids
Membrane 2) made from entirely phosphatidylcholine and oleate fatty acids
Membrane 3) made from entirely phosphatidylcholine and palmitate fatty acids
Rat heart muscle operating aerobically fills more than 90% of its ATP needs by oxidative phosphorylation. If each gram of tissue consumes O2 at the rate of 12.0 micromol/min, with glucose as the fuel source.
(a) Calculate the rate at which the heart muscle consumes glucose and produces ATP.
(b) Consider an alternate scenario – what would be the rate of consumption if the energy source was a solely triglycerides whose fatty acyl chains were each 14-C in length and saturated? (Assume the O2 consumption rate remains at 12.0 micromol/min)
(c) For a steady-state concentration of ATP of 6.0 micromol/g of heart muscle tissue, calculate the time required (in seconds) to completely turn over the cellular pool of ATP if glucose us used as the sole fuel source. What does this result indicate about the need for tight regulation of ATP production? (Note: Concentrations are expressed as micromoles per gram of muscle tissue because the tissue is mostly water.)

- a Imagine that creatine phosphate, rather than ATP, is the universal energy carrier molecule in the human body. Assume that the cellular concentrations of creatine phosphate, creatine, and phosphate are 21.6 mM, 2.16x10-3 mm, and 3.80 mM, respectively. Calculate the weight of creatine phosphate that would need to be consumed each day by a typical adult human if creatine phosphate could not be recycled. (Estimate the free energy of hydrolysis of creatine phosphate under cellular conditions to determine how many moles required. Use the standard free energy AG = -43.3 kJ/mol, and take the temperature to be 37 °C.) AG= kJ/mol Weight of creatine phosphate consumed = 9arrow_forwardAlso, briefly describe what happens in this scenario to: -Glucose - Glucose - Glycogen - Protein/Amino acids - Triglyceridesarrow_forwardThe most common fatty acid that exists in coconut oil is a fatty acid called lauric acid.
