FTP produced by succinate synthase considered to be equivalent to an ATP in terms of net energy capture because they both have three phosphodiester bonds which are hydrolysed to get equivalent free energy that is used to drive energetically unfavourable reactions.
Also GTP is readily converted to ATP using an enzyme Nucleoside-diphosphate Kinase.
Why is the GTP produced by succinate synthase considered equivalent to an ATP in terms of...
GTP or ATP is produced during the conversion of _ A isocitrate into a-ketoglutarate o B succinyl CoA into succinate O C fumarate into malate O D malate into oxaloacetate Fill in the Blanks For each of these products, indicate how many are made as a result of the citric acid cycle for each glucose molecule that is broken down: NADH FADH2 CO2
Why is GTP counted as an ATP in our calculations of energy yield?
Why is ATP the major energy currency of the cell, instead of GTP? Select one: a. We don’t know. Either molecule could fill this role. b. Adenine is more common in the environment. c. ATP is higher in energy than GTP. d. None of the above are true. e. All of the above are true.
QUESTION 15 Which of the following processes results in the net production of ATP or GTP? Select any/all answers that apply. A cycling of the FoFt-ATP synthase B. citric acid cycle C. glycolysis O D. gluconeogenesis OE glycogenesis
Explain why isolated F1 subunits from the ATP synthase enzyme catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP. Use protein structure, conformational changes, and free energy in your response.
ATP synthase requires an energy source to synthesize ATP. Tell me what the source of energy is and why energy is required for this process.
1. Why is it important that ATP synthase functions in both ATP synthesis mode and in reverse?
Imagine a new organism with 4 c subunits in the Fo portion of ATP synthase. (a) Assuming the rest of metabolism and the ETC are the same as in known organisms, how many ATP are produced per NADH oxidized? (b) Describe, in qualitative terms, the relationship between the amount of ATP synthesized per NADH oxidized and the number of c subunits in ATP synthase (i.e. if there are fewer subunits, what does that do to the number of ATP molecules...
Why does it make sense for GTP to be a cofactor for AMP synthesis and ATP a cofactor for GMP synthesis?
Would an ATP synthase taken from a bacterial cell work in a eukaryotic cell? Why?
