why does glucose meatabolism end with lactate in the mature RBC instead of with CO2 and...
Homework Answers
Answer:
The major energy source for red blood cell is glucose. Due to lack of enzymes in mitochondria of most other cells of mature erythrocyte, the red blood cells cannot depend on aerobic glycolysis,as in the Kreb's cycle to obtain energy from glucose. Therefore Embden- Meyerhof pathway use to process glucose into ATP anaerobically. In addition to adenosine triphosphate production, this pathway maintains pyridine nucleotides in a reduced state. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide reduced twice in the pathway. First reduction occurs when NAD combines with glyceraldehyde -3- phosphate to form 1,3- diphosphogylcerate. Then reduced NAD along with lactate dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversation of pyruvate to lactate.

Question 1 A-C
Question 2
Question 1: Glycolysis represents only very limited oxidation of glucose into pyruvate, and may be followed up by fermentation involving reduction of pyruvate, not further oxidation. Part A. (4 points) Explain how one molecule of NAD+ plays important roles in both parts of the above paired reactions, specifically mentioning how it is involved in both oxidation and reduction Part B. (4 points) The enzymes involved in the reduction of pyruvate to lactate or ethanol have...
