- Rotenone is an insecticide that is not toxic to plants, but is highly toxic to fish and insects. (it will also kill mammals, but it doesn’t easily get into our cells). When Rotenone is added to cells in vitro, ATP production stops, oxygen is no longer reduced and NADH builds up. Based on these results, explain what is a possible mechanism of action for Rotenone?arrow_forwardTable 9.2 shows that DGo’ for the aldolase reaction is large, and positive, yet the reaction proceeds in the forward direction. Using the metabolite concentrations in table 9.3, calculate the actual DG in the cell for the reaction to show that it is consistent with the value reported in table 9.2. Explain in words the strategy the cell uses to keep glycolysis moving in the forward direction (1-2 sentences).arrow_forwardIodoacetate reacts irreversibly with the free -SH groups of cysteine residues in proteins.

- The following two reactions are coupled in the last step of glycolysis (catalyzed by the enzyme pyruvate kinase). РЕР + Н.О € Руr + Pi ADP + Pi → ATP + H2O AG° = -14.8 kcal/mol AG° = +7.3 kcal/mol D) The steady-state concentrations of ATP, ADP, and pyruvate in human erythrocytes are 2.24 mM, 0.25 mM, and 0.051 mM, respectively. What would be the concentration of PEP in these cells if the coupled reaction was at equilibrium?arrow_forwardFrom the complete oxidation of glucose (glucose → 6CO2), how many total NADH electron carriers are produced?arrow_forward7) The following questions apply to glycolysis (figure 3-41 on page 79 of the 12th edition), the Krebs cycle (figure 3-44 on page 82) and to oxidative phosphorylation (figure 3-45 on page 84). Calculate the total amount of ATP produced from one glucose molecule if: a. The oxidation of NADH + H* to NAD* + 2H* produced 4 ATP. b. The oxidation of FADH₂ to FAD + 2H* produced 1 ATP. c. Each step of the Krebs cycle that produces NADH+H* produced FADH2 instead. d. Each step of the Krebs cycle that produces FADH2 produced NADH + H+ instead. e. Sucrose is substituted for glucose.arrow_forward
- How come high levels of NADH indicate reduced coenzymes rather than oxidized coenzymes? Isn't pyruvate oxidized by the reduction of NAD+ to NADH? Why is the answer reduced then?arrow_forwardUnder standard conditions, will the following reactions proceed spontaneously as written?
