BIOL 2604 Lecture Notes - Lecture 10: Ftsz, Dna Replication, Exponential Growth
Document Summary
Catabolism = break + remake smaller and more products. Anabolism = build up + remake bigger and fewer makes macromolecules + other cellular constituents. So they do anabolism and take other c2-5 compounds and shove them into citric acid cycle backwards makes glucose in the end. Gluconeogensis: cells growing without glucose need to make this important hexose named. Udpg (or adpg) supply glucose to growing polymers. It adds sugars to elongating chain of polysaccharide. Glucose at end of adpg or udpg comes off, makes it turn into diphosphate + g and the glucose adds onto the glycogen chain as it elongates. Nucleic acid pentoses decarboxylate glucose 6-p then dna precursors are formed by reduction of rna precursors. Ribonucleotides are reduced and given electrons through the use of nadph to create deoxyribonucleotides that don"t have a. 2" hydroxyl, become dna. different families of amino acids. Lots of moving of amino groups + electrons coming from nadh to reduce compounds.
