In glycolysis, when glucose enters a cell, it is immediately phosphorylated to form glucose-6-phosphate. The phosphate donor in this reaction is ATP, and the enzyme is . Hexokinas e Aldolase CoA Phosphohexose isomerase None of the above HEXOKINASE In the last reaction of glycolysis, ATP is formed by the direct transfer of a phosphate group from a metabolite to ADP. This process is referred to as: Substrate-level phosphorylation Protein phosphorylation Lipid phosphorylation Isomerization Photo-protein dephosphorylation SUBSTRATE-LEVEL PHOSPHORLATION

3 / 3 pts The sequential process for oxidizing fatty acids to acetyl-CoA is often called: A. β-degradation B. α-degradation C. Spiral D. α-spiral E. β-spiral E. β-spiral (Short answer) In one step of the glycolysis pathway, a six-carbon compound is broken into two three-carbon fragments, only one of which can be further degraded in the glycolysis pathway. What happens to the other three-carbon fragment? In step 5 of glycolysis, glucose (six-carbon) is converted to GAP and DHAP (both 3-carbons). GAP goes on in the glycolysis pathway. The other, DHAP, cannot go on through glycolysis directly; it is converted to GAP by triose phosphate isomerase.

Later, the (C) three-carbon products of glycolysis produce (D) ATP by direct phosphorylation, which gives a net yield of two ATP. In addition, (E) NADH are produced in glycolysis. A) six B) two C) two D)four E) two (Short response) Consider the fatty acid which has 20 carbons (below). A. (2 pts) How many cycles of β-oxidation are required for catabolism? Briefly explain. B. (2 pts) How many acetyl-CoA are produced during catabolism? Briefly explain. C. (1 pts) How many NADH and FADH 2 are produced from β-oxidation (only) of this molecule?
0 / 10 pts A. 9 cycles are required for oleic acid. Each cycle removes two carbon units. ON the final cycle, two acetyl groups are produced. B. There are 10 acetyl-CoA groups produced. Two acetyl-CoA groups on the last cycle. C.There are 9 NADH and 9 FADH2 molecules produced. One per cycle Short Essay: (10 points each) The complete oxidative catabolism of glucose to form CO 2 and H 2 O occurs in three phases. Describe each of the three phases giving the important pathway in each phase and the energy molecules produced in each. Answer: First phase: Glucose metabolism begins with glycolysis which degrades the molecule into two molecules of pyruvate and also produces 2 ATP and 2 NADH molecules. The pyruvate is converted to acetyl-CoA. Second Phase: the acetyl-CoA groups are shuttled through the citric acid cycle to generate GTP, NADH, FADH 2 molecules along with the release of CO 2. Third Phase: the NADH and FADH 2 coenzymes are themselves oxidized in the mitochondria to yield ATP by a process called oxidative phosphorylation.
