Interpretation Introduction

(a) Label subpart

Interpretation:

Purpose of the addition of succinate to the reaction mixture.

Concept introduction:

ATP synthase is an enzyme which catalyzes the formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is mostly known as the energy currency of the cells for all organisms. ATP synthases catalyze the conversion of ADP and Pi to ATP.

Biotransformation. Explain the process of enzyme induction. What are the benefits or down-falls of this process.
Fo-F1 ATPase. The energy for ATP synthesis from ADP and Pi is provided by the downhill transport of protons through the rotary FoF1 ATP synthase . The enzyme has 3 alpha-beta and 12 ‘c’ subunits. The mitochondrion maintains change in membrane potential=180 mV (negative inside), pHin = 8, pHout=7, [Pi] = 3 mM and ADP is present as well. . What [ATP]/[ADP] ratio will be established at steady-state under these conditions?  What would be the [ATP]/[ADP] ratio if the enzyme had only 9 ‘c’ subunits? full revolution of the crank (gamma subunit) produces 3 ATP.
Draw TCA Cycle.  Please make sure to state all the enzymes and co-factors for each step of the pathway.
