Statement Analysis: Statement 1: Phosphofructokinase and fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase are key control points in the reciprocal regulation of gluconeogenesis and glycolysis. Statement 2: Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, an intracellular signal molecule present at higher levels when glucose is abundant, activates gluconeogenesis and inhibits glycolysis by regulating phosphofructokinase and fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase. A. Both statements are true B. Only statement 1 is true C. Only statement 2 is true OD. Neither of the statement is true RES

Consider regulation of glycolysis vs gluconeogenesis in the liver. Which of the following are more likely to promote the activity of gluconeogenesis rather than glycolysis? (select all that apply) Group of answer choices An increase in the ATP/AMP ratio A decrease/lack of F-2,6-BP The cell is in a low energy state Insulin signaling Glucagon signaling An abundance of citric acid cycle intermediates (i.e. citrate) Intense exercise Inhibition of pyruvate carboxylase Fasting
The Gq-protein and phospholipase C pathway are responsible for stimulating gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis. What effect would an agonist or an antagonist have on gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis?
In 3-4 sentences, briefly explain how lactate is formed, the biological effect of lactate, and explain the biochemical process and path for conversion of lactate. 3. The hormones glucagon, epinephrine, and insulin, can regulate blood glucose levels to protect the brain. For each one provide a short explanation as to whether it raises or lowers glucose how it does this, and indicate whether it is metabolic or catabolic.
Why would LDH be up- or down-regulated depending on location of cancer cells? Anaerobic cancer cells enhance rates of ATP production and rely on pyruvate to lactate conversion. LDH5 expressed can vary in favoring pyruvate for conversion to lactate (anaerobic metabolism). Aerobic compartments in newly formed fibrobasts and vessels use lactate to convert to pyruvate for oxidative phosphorylation and favor lactate conversion to pyruvate by LDH1 (aerobic metabolism). Lactate dehydrogenase is upregulated in both cancer cells and supporting stroma and vessels, thus only LDH5 is upregulated showing enhanced expression levels and thus presence at the plasma membrane to increase levels of lactate for export, LDH1 levels are always consistent. LDH1 is upregulated in response to the export of lactate by MCT1, while LDH5 is down-regulated Neither LDH1 or LDH5 are both consistently expressed, regardless of oxygen levels
Protein Phosphatase 1: What overall effect does PP1 have on the storage or breakdown of glycogen? (1 point) How does PPI regulate the activity of its targets? (1 point) Which enzymes are its targets? (2 points) What activates it [hormone (pathway activator) and enzyme (immediate activator)]? (2 points) Hormone: Enzyme:
Identify if True or False The activated form of glucose that serves as glucose donor for glycogen synthesis is formed by the reaction of UTP and glucose 1-phosphate. True False
Compare and contrast regulation of gluconeogenesis and glycolysis rates. Part I. Complete the table by replacing question mark (?) with "high" or "low" as required. [lactate] (high/low) high high high high low low (glucose) (highlow) high | high ATPMAMP] (high/low) | high low high low high low high low Rate glycolysis (highſow) Rate GNG (high/low) ? low low high | high low low low low Part II. (Each row in the table is a separate condition. Interpret each condition independently) Annotation: Prepare to explain the rates. Extra Credit. Blood glucose ranges 5.5 mM and 7.1 mM. The Km for hexokinase is 10 mM in liver and 0.1 mM in muscle. Explain how each condition may or may not arise in muscle, liver, or both.
What type of regulation would be expected when anaerobic metabolism is occurring in the muscle? Select all that apply. 1. Activation of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 2. Increased levels of calcium to activate pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase 3. Phosphorylation of pyruvate dehydrogenase 4. Inhibition of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex 5. Increased levels of NADH to activate citrate synthase 6. Increased levels of NADH to inhibit alpha-ketogluterate dehydrogenase complex 7. Increased levels of acetyl CoA to activate pyruvate carboxylase for gluconeogenesis
A 16-year-old female is recently diagnosed with a deficiency of muscle glycogen phosphorylase. She and her family are concerned and ask the following questions. Based on what you know about skeletal muscle glycogenolysis and muscle metabolism, please respond to each question with a thoughtful answer that describes the metabolism in these various scenarios in language that your patient will understand, while also being sure to include the role of the relevant metabolic pathways, specific enzymes, and stimulus for their activity: I’m not sure I understand the issue. Can you explain how muscle glycogen is used normally during exercise? I really like to take long walks; will Istill be able to do this with my friends? As a result of this deficiency, will I need to get up at night to eat to maintain my blood glucose levels? Do I need to worry about producing excessive lactate during intense anaerobic exercise?
How does the phosphorylation of glucose within cells contribute to homeostasis?" Describe the location, enzyme kinetics and regulation of both hexokinase and glucokinase in this problem. Include the whole point of glucose phosphorylation.
If the brain needs glucose, then gluconeogenesis stops after reaction (9, 8, 10, 2) because (phosphoenolpyruvate, glucose, glucose-6-phosphaet, fructose-6-phosphate) can be exported from the hepatocyte using a transporter.
Write a one-sentence explanation for each of the following statements. (a) In liver, glucagon stimulates glycogen breakdown via cyclic AMP. Although one might expect glucagon also to stimulate catabolism of the glucose formed, glucagon inhibits glycolysis and stimulates glu- coneogenesis in liver. (b) An individual with a glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency suffers from chronic hypoglycemia. (c) The action of phosphorylase kinase simultaneously activates glycogen breakdown and inhibits glycogen synthesis. (d) The presence in liver of glucose-6-phosphatase is essential to the function of the liver in synthesizing glucose for use by other tissues.
