Years ago there was interest in using uncouplers such as dinitrophenol as
weight control agents. Presumably, fat could be oxidized without concomi-
tant ATP synthesis for re-formation of fat or carbohydrate. Why was this a
bad (i.e., fatal) idea?
If metabolites from fats, amino acids and lactate are to be converted to
glucose, which of the following is a common metabolic precursor?
oxaloacetate
acetyl CoA
alpha-ketoglutarate
pyruvate
succinyl CoA
Lipoic Acid is the vitamin precursor for a co-enzyme called Lipoamide
A patient diagnosed with lipoic acid deficiency exhibited fatigue and muscle cramps. The muscle cramps have been related to the accumulation of specific metabolic acids. On the following list, highlight the metabolic acids that are most likely to accumulate in a lipoic acid deficiency?
Note: There may be more than one.
Isocitrate
Pyruvate
Succinate
α-ketoglutarate
Malate
Fumarate

- The energy for the production of ATP comes from the breakdown of a glucose molecule via many enzyme-mediated chemical reactions occurring at several distinct stages of cellular respiration. During this time, the chemical energy stored in glucose is continually trans- ferred across these reactions. Which of the following describes the form in which most of the energy from the glucose molecule is stored just before the oxidative phosphorylation stage in aerobic cellular respiration? A B с D acetyl CoA FADH 2 NADH pyruvatearrow_forwardThiamine is the vitamin precursor for a co-enzyme called thiamine pyrophosphate or TPP. A patient diagnosed with thiamine deficiency exhibited fatigue and muscle cramps. The muscle cramps have been related to the accumulation of specific metabolic acids. On the following list, circle the metabolic acids that are most likely to accumulate in a thiamine deficiency? Note: There may be more than one. Isocitrate Pyruvate Succinate α-ketoglutarate Malate Fumarate (b) Provide a brief explanation for your answer to 1 (a) herearrow_forwardWhich of the following cellular concentrations would be likely to increase the rate of glycolysis? Low AMP levels High glucagon levels ✓Low fructose-2,6-bisphosphate levels High AMP levels High phosphoenolpyruvate levels Low ATP levelsarrow_forward
- The complete oxidation of glucose 6-phosphate derived from free glucose yields 30 molecules ATP, whereas the complete oxidation of glucose 6- phosphate derived from glycogen yields 31 molecules of ATP. Account for this difference.arrow_forwardThe phosphorylation catalyzed by hexokinase is essentially an irreversible reaction. Which of the following statements is most likely to be true under cellular conditions? In all cases, note that dephosphorylation specifically refers to hydrolysis in which a phosphate is lost. ATP dephosphorylation is more exergonic than glucose 6-phosphate dephosphorylation. ATP dephosphorylation is less exergonic than glucose 6-phosphate dephosphorylation. There is not enough information to determine which reaction is more exergonic.arrow_forwardTrue False Glucose oxidase can be used in determining glucose in the blood and urine Regardless of the distance between the enzyme and substrate, they will bind. Lipase is an enzyme primarily produced by the pancreas that breakdown peptide bonds between the oxygen molecules of glycerol and the hydroxyl molecules of fatty acids. Coenzymes are organic substances, while cofactors are inorganic. L-Amino-acid oxidase will catalyze reactions of D (-) - glycine. Redox reaction via oxidoreductase is still possible with one reactant only. The apoenzyme is the protein part of the enzyme, which is enzymatically inactive without cofactors. Lack of enzymes will lead to block in metabolic pathways causing inborn errors of metabolism Ligases are enzymes that catalyze the breakdown of chemical bonds. Ribozymes are catalytically active RNA molecules or RNA-protein complexesarrow_forward
- Which of the following monosaccharide phosphates is NOT produced in the pentose phosphate pathway? O seduheptulose-7-phosphate O mannose-6-phosphate O ribose-5-phosphate O erythrose-4-phosphatearrow_forwardYears ago there was interest in using uncouplers such as dinitrophenol asweight control agents. Presumably, fat could be oxidized without concomitant ATP synthesis for re-formation of fat or carbohydrate. Why was this a bad (i.e., fatal) idea?arrow_forwardWhat is the correct choice? Apoenzyme, holoenzyme, coenzyme or prosthetic group?arrow_forward
- Why does the lack of glucose 6-phosphatase activity in the brain and muscle make good physiological sense? Glucose 6-phosphatase allows cells to trap glucose in the cell; however, these tissues primarily rely on noncarbohydrate energy sources. Glucose 6-phosphatase allows cells to generate glucose through gluconeogenesis; however, gluconeogenesis only takes place in the liver. Glucose 6-phosphatase allows cells to release glucose into the blood; however, these tissues should never release glucose. Glucose 6-phosphatase provides glucose 6-phosphate for glycogen synthesis; however, these tissues do not need glycogen.arrow_forwardTRUE OR FALSE: NAD most commonly oxidizes carbon – oxygen bonds NADH is the most common biochemical reducing agent FAD contains ribitol as part of its molecular structure Pantothenate is part of the Vitamin B12 structure. Vitamin D is involved with blood coagulation. People on a vegan diet usually require Vitamin B12 supplementation Transcription factors are one means of regulating metabolic processesarrow_forwardWhich of the following substances derived from lipid catabolism serves as a precursor for glucose synthesis: acetoacetyl CoA acetone palmitate acetate O glycerolarrow_forward
