Question
Chapter 21, Problem 4P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The enzyme not involved directly in glycogen degradation should be determined.
Concept introduction:
The breakdown of glycogen to glucose and glucose-1-phosphate during the process of glycogenolysis. The rate limiting step of glycogenolysis is the release of glucose 1-phosphate from a 1, 4-glycosidic bond at the terminal end by the enzyme glycogen phosphorylase.

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Glutamate dehydrogenase
requires which of the following cofactors:
a. NAD+/NADP+NAD*/NADP+
b. Pyridoxal phosphate
c. Thiamine pyrophosphate
d. Biopterin
2A. Red blood cells synthesize and degrade 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG) by a detour of the
glycolytic pathway, as shown below:
glyeeraldehyde 3-phosphate
GAP dehydrogenase
1,3-bisphosphoglycerate
bisphosphoglycerate mutase
ADP
phosphoglycerate kinase
2,3-bisphosphoglycerate
ATP
3-phosphoglycerate
2,3-bisphosphoglycerate phosphatase
phosphoglycerate mutase
2-phosphoglycerate
(i) The bisphosphoglycerate mutase/2,3-bisphosphoglcerate phosphatase reaction is catalyzed by a single enzyme,
BPGM. At alkaline pH, BPGM favors the mutase activity while at lower pH, BPGM favors the phosphatase
reaction. Use this information, along with the Bohr effect, to explain in the space below how red blood cells
respond to a metabolic defect where a patient experiences chronic, elevated levels of lactic acid. I
(ii) Individuals with red blood cell phosphoglycerate kinase deficiency suffer from moderate hemolytic anemia (a
condition where red blood cells self-destruct before their normal lifespan). They…
Long explanations are not needed. Direct answers would suffice. ***kind of in hurry so having the answer asap would greatly be appreciated, thank you :))
