Document Summary

Beta degradation: each round of beta oxidation involves: oxidation, hydration, oxidation, thiolysis and yields fadh2, nadh, acetyl-coa and an acyl-coa shortened by 2c: compare and contrast the forms of phosphorylase in muscle vs. liver cells. Include what this means for activity, regulation and overall function in each of these cells: muscle: the default form is the b form in the t state (inactive state). The b form is the less active form. Amp concentration will be high in the cells when energy is needed and phosphorylase will bind amp, stabilizing the r state (active form). The t state (inactive form) of phosphorylase is stabilized when energy is high and abundant, when no glucose is needed. Atp and glucose 6-phosphate will be high and the t state will be prevalent. This ensures glucose reserves can be conserved until really needed: liver: the default form is the a form in the r state (active state).

Recall that the âGÂ° for the hydrolysis of ATP is -7.3 kcal/mol. a. Glucose concentrations in the cell are always low, making this reaction more favorable than would be expected. b. This reaction is less favorable than would be expected, given the âGÂ° of ATP hydrolysis. c. Glucose-6-P concentrations in the cell are very low relative to glucose concentrations, making the reaction more favorable than would be expected. d.

I know that this alot of questions, but it's kinda a last ditch effort. these are the last 42 definitions i have left to answer out of 500 question for my final exam study guide. so whatever help i can get is fine. No explanations needed just what each definition is explaining and thanks in advance ladies and gentlemen.
