Extended fasting will activate the processes of [glycolysis/gluconeogenesis] and [fatty acid synthesis/b-oxidation]. These processes will work to deplete [oxaloacetate/acetyl-CoA] and increase [oxaloacetate/acetyl-CoA]. As a result, flux through the citric acid cycle will [increase/decrease].

- . Briefly describe the biological rationale for cach of the following allosteric phenomena: (a) activation of pyruvate carboxylase by acetyl-CoA; (b) acti- vation of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase by NADH; (c) inhibition of isoci- trate dehydrogenase by NADH; (d) activation of isocitrate dehydrogenase by ADP; (e) inhibition of a-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase by succinyl-CoA; (f) activation of pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase by Ca*.arrow_forwardNot too sure if my answers are correct.arrow_forwardNot too sure if my answers are correct.arrow_forward
- Long explanations are NOT NEEDED. Answer only d and e. ATP accounting. Consider 1 molecule of the sucrose (monomeric units: glucose and fructose) that will undergo complete oxidation. -Number of pyruvate molecules after glycolysis is 4.-Net ATP produced in glycolysis only (via substrate-level phosphorylation) is 2.-Number of NADH produced using the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex reaction is 1. Now find:d. Number of NADH and FADH2 produced from Krebs cycle.e. Net ATP produced (complete oxidation via Malate aspartate shuttle).arrow_forwardOH The usage of acetyl-CoA in the cell depends on the metabolic / physiological state of the body. The table below shows the possible uses of acetyl-CoA, the corresponding physiological states of the body and the organ/cellular location where these processes occur.

- Give typed explanation of both otherwise leave itarrow_forwardvny can acetone sometimes be detected in the breath of patients with type 1 diabetes? A. Glucagon signaling is faulty, leading to an excess of oxaloacetate, which enables acetyl-CoA to enter the citric acid cycle, therefore resulting in the production of ketone bodies including acetone OB. Insulin signaling is faulty, so excess malonyl-CoA is generated, which leads to excess acetyl-CoA from beta oxidation Oc. None of the other answers is correct OD. Insulin signaling is correct, but excess acetyl-CoA is generated anyway, leading to the production of ketone bodies including acetone O E. Insulin signaling is faulty, fatty acids are catabolized to acetyl- COA despite high blood glucose, and excess acetyl-CoA is converted to ketone bodies,arrow_forward9arrow_forward
