Explain why the hexose monophosphate shunt is so important.
Make an experimental procedure for the synthesis of ascorbic acid from glucose:
The highly pathogenic anaerobic bacterium Clostridium perfringens is responsible for gas gangrene, a condition in which animal tissue structure is destroyed. This bacterium secretes an enzyme that efficiently catalyzes the hydrolysis of the peptide bond indicated in red: where X and Y are any of the 20 common amino acids. How does the secretion of this enzyme contribute to the invasiveness of this bacterium in human tissues? Why does thisenzyme not affect the bacterium itself?

- On the right is a diagram of plasma concentration of three metabolites: glucose, B- hydroxybutyrate, and free fatty acid of an experimental animal over weeks of starvation. 4. (a) Label the lines with the names of the three metabolites. Yellow: Red: 10 20 30 40 Blue: Days of starvation (b) What factor in the plasma binds to and transports free fatty acid (c) Where was B-hydroxybutyrate produced? Why it is produced? What are the purposes of producing it (d) How B-hydroxybutyrate is used as fuel in extrahepatic cells? Write down the reactions, enzymes, and cofactors (No need to elaborate on the TCA cycle). (e) How many ATP molecules or equivalent are generated after complete oxidation of one molecule of B-hydroxybutyrate? Show your calculations. Hint: You need to consider ATP consumption for bypassed steps that may normally yield or consume AT Plasma concentration (mM)arrow_forwardFor each of the following statements, indicate whether it is true or false. [Select] [Select] The LDL particles are internalized through the endocytic pathway. A mutation that impairs the association of the LDL receptor with adaptin would cause depletion of LDL in the blood. [Select] In the endosome, the LDL particle dissociates from the LDL receptor because the pH in the endosome is higher than that in the transport vesicle. [Select] A mutation that impairs the recruitment of the LDL receptor into clathrin-coated vesicles would cause a decrease in cellular cholesterol level.arrow_forwardA)Carrier of the activated amino acids to the ribosomes for incorporation into the growing peptide chain. B)Molecule that attaches to myosin and actin during muscle contraction. C)The reduced cofactor important in the TCA cycle and used in the last part of respiration.

In ARMD, drusen are formed, which is similar to an atherosclerotic plaque, and ultimately vision is distorted. Given the close relationship between atherosclerosis and ARMD, what is likely to accumulate in drusen? OA) Cholesterol. OB) HMG-CoA reductase. OC) HDL. OD) Mevalonate.arrow_forwardA) With what disorder is BRC-ABL associated? B) What drug is used to treat this disorder?arrow_forward
- For each of the following examples, indicate whether the drug is acting on physical process, chemical process or enzymatic system (your answer should be only; Physical, Chemical or Enzymatic). A. A drug is used as an antidote in lead poisoning and acts by binding to lead particles in body (chelation therapy). B. A drug acts to reduce flatulence and acts by reducing the surface tension of intestinal gas bubbles in the GI tract (e.g. Simethicone). C. A drug competes with alpha-glucosidase in intestine to reduce glucose conversion from disaccharides (e.g. Acarbose).arrow_forwardAnemia is characterized by low hemoglobin levels or a reduced number of red blood cells (both of which transport oxygen to cells). A common symptom of anemia is tiredness. Please do not copy answers from another website/source. a) Briefly explain what the consequences are of anemia on cellular energy production. b) Suggest at least one other cellular effect of anemia and a brief explanation of this effect.arrow_forwardHow does enzyme defect cause steatorrhea?arrow_forward

Include the location, any pathways impacted, and the purpose of ketone formation. c) Give the names of the three different ketone bodies, and indicate which ones are used for fuel in extrahepatic cells. d) When ketones are used by extrahepatic cells for fuel, why is a new enzyme used in the pathway (why not simply reverse the pathway used to form ketones)? Explain.arrow_forwardUntreated pre-eclampsia may progress to eclampsia or HELLP Syndrome. Which of the following findings would indicate that a patient’s condition has progressed to HELLP Syndrome?
