- You isolate mammalian gut cells and inhibit the function of the Na+/K+ ATPase chemically. Then, you slowly increase the extracellular concentration of Na+. Under these conditions, you might expect to see . Group of answer choices Increased fructose uptake. Increased glucose uptake. Decreased monoacylglycerol uptake. Decreased free fatty acid uptake. All of the above None of the abovearrow_forwardNADH and succinate are substrates that can be oxidized and will consume oxygen. Rotenone and cyanide are inhibitors of the electron transport chain and can block oxidation. Match each description of the effector to the appropriate oxygen consumption.

- Falling energy levels increase the cellular AMP/ATP ratio, priming AMPK for activation by the liver kinase B1 (LKB1). AMPK phosphorylates multiple targets with the cumulative effect of blocking anabolic reactions and stimulating energy-generating catabolic pathways.

O Both AMP and ADP are negative regulators of glycogenolysis. ATP shifts the curve of glycogen phosphorylase to the left. O Citrate binds covalently to acetyl CoA carboxylase. Phosphofructokinase-1 is an allosterically regulated enzyme in glycolysis. The carnitine shuttle is positively regulated by Malonyl CoA.arrow_forward
- After infection, some T cells (a particular type of immune cell) may persist as memory T cells (TMcells). When they re-encounter the same pathogen, TM cells rapidly divide to produce more T cells to help fight off the infection. This rapid cell division requires substantial energy. One way that this energy is provided to TMcells is via increased activity of the ETC. One standard type of experiment for analyzing oxidative metabolism is measuring the oxygen consumption rate OCR in the presence of different compounds. The lines indicate the time at which the different ETC/OxPhos inhibitors were added. Note that the inhibitors are never removed. Complete the table below. Time Period 1 2 3 4 Inhibitor added None Oligomycin (inhibits ATP Synthase) FCCP (Uncoupler) Rotenone + Antimycin (Complexes I and III) Can electrons flow? If so, from which compound to which compound? If not, what is preventing it? Can H+move through the membrane?

- n your own words and with your own diagrams, describe the catalytic reaction mechanism of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. Discuss the functional roles of each member of the catalytic triad plus whatever other residues that you find important. Describe the actual movements of protons, and the making and breaking of bonds. What types of chemistries is the enzyme using? (what is the enzyme doing, in term of reactionarrow_forwardAn individual developed a condition characterized by progressive muscular weakness and aching muscle cramps. Fasting. exercise, and a hiyh-fat diet aggravated the symptoms. The homogenate of a skeletal muscle specimen from the patient oxidized added oleate more slowly than did control homogenates consisting of muscle specimens from healthy individuals. When the pathologist added carnitine to the patient's muscle homogenate, the rate of oleate oxidation equaled that in the control homogenates. Based on these results, the attending physician diagnosed the patient as having a carnitine deficiency. Why did added carnitine increase the rate of oleate oxidation in the patient's muscle homogenate? The carnitine shuttle transports coenzyme A across the mitochondrial membrane to aid in fatty acid oxidation. Carnitine is a required cofactor for the fatty acid oxidation enzyme acyl-CoA dehydrogenase. The carnitine-mediated entry of fatty acids into mitochondria is the rate-limiting step in fatty…arrow_forwardWhen does the bulk of ATP regeneration primarily occur?
