Question: In the Cori cycle, when glucose is degraded by glycolysis to lactate in muscle, the lactate is excreted into the blood and returns to the liver where it is converted back into glucose by gluconeogenesis. Sort the following list of enzymes into those that are involved in:•Both glycolysis (including lactate […]

The information to the below were collected for the bovine carbonic anhydrase-catalyzed reaction described by CO2 (aq) + H2O (l) –>H+ (aq) + HCO3- (aq) [CO2] (mmol * L^-1) R (Ã?µmol * L^-1 * s^-1) 1.25 28.74 2.50 48.61 5.00 80.28 20.00 155.59 Use these values to determine the value of KM, the […]

Some anaerobic bacteria use an alternative pathway for glucose catabolism, as shown in the attached figure, that converts glucose to acetate rather than pyruvate. The first part of the pathway (glucose to fructose bis-phosphate) is identical to glycolysis. In the second part of the alternative pathway, Enzymes 1-6 all have […]
