NOTES TO REMEMBER
 The unusual thing about the structure of N-
acetylmuramic acid compared to other
carbohydrates is the presence of a lactic acid
side chain.

 Cell walls of plants are cellulosic (polymer of


D-glucose); bacterial cell walls consist mainly
of polysaccharide crosslinked to peptide
through murein bridges; and fungal cell walls
are chitinous (polymer of N-acetyl-β-D-
glucosamine)
 Glycogen and starch differ mainly in the degree
of chain branching.

 Enantiomers are nonsuperimposable, mirror-


image stereoisomers differing configuration
on all carbons while diastereomers are
nonsuperimposable nonmirror-image
stereoisomers differing only on two
carbons.

 Fischer projection of glucose has 4 chiral


centers while its Haworth projection has 5
chiral centers.
 Sugar phosphate is an ester bond
formed between a sugar hydroxyl and
phosphoric acid.

 A glycosidic bond is an acetal which can


be hydrolyzed to regenerate the two
original sugar hydroxyls.

 A reducing sugar is one that has a free


aldehyde group that can be easily
oxidized.
 Major biochemical roles of glycoproteins
are signal transduction as hormones,
recognition sites for external molecules in
eukaryotic cell membranes, and defense as
immunoglobulins.

 L-sorbitol is made by reducing D-glucose.

 Arabinose is a ribose epimer, thus, its


derivatives ara-A and ara-C if substituted
for ribose act as inhibitors in reactions of
ribonucleosides.
 Two best precursors for glycogen are
glucose and fructose.

 Cellulose because of the β- bonding is linear


as to structure and structural as to role while
starch because of α-bonding coils with
energy storage role.

 The highly branched nature of glycogen


gives rise to a number of available glucose
molecules at a time upon hydrolysis to
provide energy. A linear one provides one
glucose at a time.
 The enzyme β-amylase is an exoglycosidase
degrading polysaccharides from the ends. The
enzyme α-amylase is an endoglycosidase
cleaving internal glycosidic bonds.

 Dietary fibers bind toxic substances in the gut


and decreases the transit time, so harmful
compounds such as carcinogens are removed from
the body more quickly than would be the case with
low-fiber diet.

 The sugar portions of the blood group


glycoproteins are the source of the antigenic
difference.
 Cross-linking can be expected to play a role in the
structures of cellulose and chitin where mechanical
strength is afforded by extensive hydrogen bonding.

 Converting a sugar to an epimer requires inversion


of configuration at a chiral center. This can only be
done by breaking and reforming covalent bonds.

 Vitamin C is a lactone (a cyclic ester) with a double


bond between two of the ring carbons. The
presence of a double bond makes it susceptible to
air oxidation.

 The sequence of monomers in a polysaccharide is


not genetically coded and in this sense does not
contain any information unlike the nucleotide
sequence.
 Glycosidic bonds can be formed between the side
chain hydroxyls of serine or threonine residues
and the sugar hydroxyls. In addition, there is a
possibility of ester bonds forming between the side
chain carboxyl groups of aspartate or glutamate
and the sugar hydroxyls.

 In glycolysis, reactions that require ATP are:


1. phosphorylation of glucose (HK,GK)
2. phosphorylation of fructose-6-phosphate (PFK)
Reactions that produce ATP are:
1. transfer of phosphate from 1,3-
bisphosphoglycerate to ADP (PGK)
2. transfer of phosphate from PEP to ADP (PK)
 In glycolysis, reactions that require NADH are:
1. reduction of pyruvate to lactate (LDH)
2. reduction of acetaldehyde to ethanol
(alcohol dehydrogenase)
Reactions that require NAD are:
1. oxidation of G-3-P to give 1,3-DPG (G-3-PD)

 NADH-linked dehydrogenases are LDH, ADH & G-


3-PD.

 The purpose of the step that produces lactate is to


reduce pyruvate so that NADH can be oxidized to
NAD+ needed for the step catalyzed by
glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate.
 Aldolase catalyzes the reverse aldol condensation
of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate to glyceraldehyde-3-
phosphate and DHAP.

 The energy released by all the reactions of


glycolysis is 184.5 kJ mol glucose/mol. The energy
released by glycolysis drives the phosphorylation of
two ADP to ATP for each molecule of glucose,
trapping 61.0 kJ mol/glucose. The estimate of 33%
efficiency comes from the calculation (61.0/184.5) x
100 = 33%.

 There is a net gain of two ATP molecules per


glucose molecule consumed in glycolysis. The
gross yield of 4 ATPs per glucose molecule, but the
reactions of glycolysis require two ATP per glucose.
 Pyruvate can be converted to lactate, ethanol or
acetylCoA.

 The free energy of hydrolysis of a substrate is the


energetic driving force in substrate-level
phosphorylation. An example is the conversion of
glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate to 1,3-
bisphosphoglycerate.

 Coupled reactions in glycolysis are those reactions


catalyzed by hexokinase, phosphofructokinase,
glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase,
phosphoglycerokinase, and pyruvate kinase.
 Isozymes allow for subtle control of the enzyme to
respond to different cellular needs. For example, in the
liver, LDH is most often used to convert lactate to
pyruvate, but the reaction is often reversed in the
muscles. Having a different isozyme in the liver and
the muscle allows for those reactions to be
optimized.

 Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate can only undergo the


reactions of glycolysis. The components of the
pathway up to this point can have other metabolic
fates.

 The physiologically irreversible glycolytic steps


are those catalyzed by HK, PFK and PK. Thus, they
are controlling points in glycolysis.
 Hexokinase is inhibited by glucose-6-phosphate.
Phosphofructokinase is inhibited by ATP and citrate.
Pyruvate kinase is inhibited is inhibited by ATP,
acetylCoA and alanine.

 Phosphofructokinase is stimulated by AMP and


fructose-2,6-bisphosphate.
Pyruvate kinase is stimulated by AMP and fructose-
1,6-bisphosphate.

 An isomerase is a general term for an enzyme that


changes the form of a substrate without changing
its empirical formula.

 A mutase is an enzyme that moves a functional


group such as a phosphate to a new location in a
substrate molecule.
 The glucokinase has a higher Km for glucose than
hexokinase. Thus, under conditions of low glucose,
the liver will not convert glucose to glucose-6-
phosphate, using a substrate that is needed
elsewhere. When the glucose concentration becomes
higher, however, glucokinase will function to help
phosphorylate glucose so that it can be stored as
glycogen.

 The net yield of ATP from glycolysis is the same, 2


ATP, when either fructose, mannose, and
galactose is used. The energetics of the conversion
of hexoses to pyruvate are the same regardless of
hexose type.

 The net yield of ATP is 3 from glucose derived from


glycogen because the starting material is glucose-1-
phosphate. One of the priming reactions is no longer
used.
 A reaction with a negative ΔGo is
thermodynamically possible under standard
conditions.

 Individuals who lack the gene that directs the


synthesis of the M form of the enzyme PFK can
carry on glycolysis in their livers but suffer muscle
weakness because they lack the enzyme in muscle.

 The reaction of 2-PG to PEP is a dehydration (loss of


water) rather than a redox reaction.

 The hexokinase molecule changes shape


drastically on binding to substrate, consistent with
the induced fit theory of an enzyme adapting itself to
its substrate.
 ATP is an inhibitor of several steps of glycolysis as
well as other catabolic pathways. The purpose of
catabolic pathways is to produce energy, and high
levels of ATP mean the cell already has sufficient
energy. G-6-P inhibits HK and is an example of
product inhibition. If G-6-P level is high, it may
indicate that sufficient glucose is available from
glycogen breakdown or that the subsequent enzymatic
steps of glycolysis are going slowly. Either way there
is no reason to produce more G-6-P.

 Phosphofructokinase is inhibited by a special


effector molecule, fructose-2,6-bisphosphate,
whose levels are controlled by hormones. It is also
inhibited by citrate, which indicates that there is
sufficient energy from the TCA cycle probably from fat
or amino acid catabolism.
 PK is also inhibited by acetylCoA, the presence of
which indicates that fatty acids are being used to
generate energy for the citric acid cycle.

 The main function of glycolysis is to feed carbon


units to the TCA cycle. When these carbon
skeletons can come from other sources, glycolysis is
inhibited to spare glucose for other purposes.

 Thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) is a coenzyme in the


transfer of 2-carbon units. It is required for catalysis by
pyruvate decarboxylase in alcoholic fermentation. The
important part of TPP is the five-membered ring where
a C is found between an S and N. This carbon forms a
carbanion and is extremely reactive, making it able to
perform nucleophilic attack on carbonyl groups
leading to decarboxylation of several compounds in
different pathways.
 TPP is a coenzyme required in the reaction
catalyzed by pyruvate carboxylase. Because this
reaction is a part of the metabolism of ethanol, less
will be available to serve as a coenzyme in the
reactions of other enzymes that require it.

 Animals that have been run to death have


accumulated large amounts of lactic acid in their
muscle tissue, accounting for the sour taste of their
meat.

 Conversion of glucose to lactate rather than pyruvate


recycles NADH.

 The formation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate is the


committed step in glycolysis. It is also one of the
energy-requiring steps of the said pathway.
 A positive ΔGo does not necessarily mean
that the reaction has a positive ΔG.
Substrate concentrations can make a
negative ΔG out of a positive ΔGo.

 The entire pathway can be looked at as a


large coupled reaction. Thus, if the overall
pathway has a negative ΔG, an individual step
may be able to have a positive ΔG and the
pathway can still continue.
 In glycogen storage, the reactions that require ATP are:
1. formation of UDP-glucose from glucose-1-phosphate
and UTP (indirect requirement since ATP is needed
to regenerate UTP) (UDP-glucose phosphorylase)
2. regeneration of UTP (nucleoside phosphate kinase)
3. carboxylation of pyruvate to oxaloacetate (pyruvate
carboxylase)
Reactions that produce ATP are NONE.

 Three differences between NADPH and NADH


1. phosphate at 2’ position of ribose in NADPH
2. NADH is produced in oxidative reactions that yield ATP
while NADPH is a reducing agent in biosynthesis.
3. Different enzymes use NADH as a coenzyme compared
to those that require NADPH.
 In glycogen storage, there is no reaction
that requires acetylCoA but biotin is
required in the carboxylation of pyruvate
to oxaloacetate.

 The four fates of glucose-6-phosphate are:


 Converted to glucose (gluconeogenesis)
 Converted to glycogen (glycogenesis)
 Converted to pentose phosphates
 Hydrolyzed to pyruvate (glycolysis)
 In making equal amounts of NADPH and pentose
phosphates, it only involves oxidative reactions. In making
mostly or purely NADPH, the use of oxidative reactions,
transketolase and transaldolase reactions, and
gluconeogenesis are required. In making mostly or only
pentose phosphates, needed reactions are transketolase,
transaldolase, and glycolysis in reverse.

 Transketolase catalyzes the transfer of 2-carbon unit, whereas


transaldolase catalyzes the transfer of a 3-carbon unit.

 It is essential that the mechanisms that activate glycogen


synthesis also deactivate glycogen phosphorylase because
they both occur in the same cell compartment. If both are on at
the same time, a futile ATP hydrolysis results. On/off
mechanism is highly efficient in its control.
 UDPG, in glycogen biosynthesis, transfers glucose to
the growing glycogen molecule.

 Glycogen synthase is subject to covalent


modification and to allosteric control. The enzyme is
active in its phosphorylated form and inactive when
dephosphorylated.

 AMP is an allosteric inhibitor of glycogen synthase,


whereas ATP and glucose-6-phosphate are
allosteric activators.

 In gluconeogenesis, biotin is the molecule to which


carbon dioxide is attached to the process of being
transferred to pyruvate. The reaction produces
oxaloacetate, which then undergoes further reactions
of gluconeogenesis. Biotin is not used in
glycogenesis and PPP.
 In gluconeogenesis, glucose-6-phosphate is
dephosphorylated to glucose (last step); in glycolysis,
G-6-P isomerizes to fructose-6-phosphate (early step).

 The Cori cycle is a pathway in which there is cycling of


glucose due to glycolysis in muscle and
gluconeogenesis in liver. The blood transports lactate
from muscle to liver and glucose from liver to muscle.

 There is a net gain of 3, rather than 2, ATP when


glycogen, not glucose, is the starting material of
glycolysis.
 Control mechanisms are important in metabolism.
They are:
 Allosteric control (takes place in msec)
 Covalent control (takes place from s to min)
 Genetic control ( longer time scale)

 Enzymes, like all catalysts, speed up the forward and


reverse reaction to the same extent. Having different
catalysts is the only way to ensure independent
control over the rates of the forward and the reverse
process.

 The glycogen synthase is an exergonic reaction


overall because it is coupled to phosphate ester
hydrolysis.
 Increasing the level of ATP is favorable to both
gluconeogenesis and glycogen synthesis.

 Decreasing the level of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate


would tend to stimulate glycolysis, rather than
gluconeogenesis and glycogen synthesis.

 If a cell needs NADPH, all the reactions of the PPP


take place. If a cell needs ribose-5-phosphate, the
oxidative portion of the pathway can be bypassed and
only the nonoxidative reshuffling reactions take place.
The PPP does not have a significant effect on the ATP
supply of a cell.

 Glucose-6-phosphate is expectedly oxidized to a


lactone rather than an open-chain ester because the
latter is easy to hydrolyze.
 In the PPP resshuffling reactions, without an
isomerase, all the sugars involved are keto
sugars that are not substrates for
transaldolase.

 Sugar nucleotides (UDPG) have two


phosphates which when hydrolyzed drives
towards the polymerization of glycogen. Thus,
they are fit for glycogenesis.
