NEED HELP WITH PART C ONLY (NO SCAM PLEASE, I JUST NEED HELP WITH PART C) THANK YOU
The first reaction in glycolysis is the phosphorylation of glucose:
Pi+glucoseâ¶glucoseâ6âphosphate+H2O
This is a thermodynamically unfavorable process, with ÎGââ²=+13.8kJ/mol.
Part A
In a liver cell at 37 âC the concentrations of both phosphate and glucose are normally maintained at about 5 mM each. =>the equilibrium concentration of glucose-6-phosphate = 1.2*10^-7 M
Part B
This very low concentration of the desired product would be unfavorable for glycolysis. In fact, the reaction is coupled to ATP hydrolysis to give the overall reaction
ATP+glucoseâ¶glucoseâ6âphosphate+ADP+H+
ÎGââ² for the coupled reaction is -18.4 kJ/mol
NEED HELP WITH PART C ONLY (NO SCAM PLEASE, I JUST NEED HELP WITH PART C) THANK YOU
PART C
If, in addition to the constraints on glucose concentration listed previously, we have in the liver cell ATP concentration = 3 mM and ADP concentration = 1 mM, what is the theoretical concentration of glucose-6-phosphate at equilibrium at pH=7.4 and 37 âC?
