Glycolysis — Flashcards

A researcher is studying the role of glucose metabolites in normal cellular function. - In the experiment, ATP production is measured. - In these cells, glycolysis of a single glucose molecule always yields pyruvate but sometimes generates no net ATP. - What cell is most likely being studied?

45 y/o man comes with newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus. -A week ago comes with elevated fasting seum glucose level. -The physician recommends a medication that alters glucose metabolism within the liver by increasing the concentration of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate within hepatocytes. -What conversions will be inhibited by high intracellular concentrations of this metabolite?

Conversion of glyceraldehyde-3P into 1,3-BPG (glycolysis) produces a molecule of _____

The one to four glucose residues remaining on a branch after glycogen phosphorylase has shortened it are referred to as '_____''

Thiamine pyrophosphate (B1) is a cofactor for the enzyme _____ (glycolysis)

What is the rate-limiting enzyme of glycolysis?_____

2-phosphoglycerate is converted into _____ via the enzyme enolase

Anaerobic glycolysis produces a net of _____ ATP per glucose molecule

Conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate into pyruvate (glycolysis) produces a molecule of _____

Which steps (2) of glycolysis require ATP? _____
