how can a deficiency of glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase confer a physiological advantage
The first enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway that oxidize glucose glucose-6-phosophate to 6- phosphoglucono-6-lactone is glucose-6-phosophate dehydrogenase. Deficiency of this enzyme causes health issues. Write 2-1 page description on the deficiency of the enzyme due to genetic mutations. (if this enzyme activity has completely diminished due to mutation, we cannot live). Include these terms in your writing and underline them whenever you use the terms. Red blood cells, hemolytic anemia, fava beans, malaria, malaria drugs glutathione, NADPH
Which one of the following statements about glucose metabolism is correct? A. Prokaryotes do not perform Krebs cycle for respiration. B. Krebs cycle involves the breakdown of a molecule of pyruvate into 6 CO2, 8 NADH, 2 FADH2, and 2 GTP molecules. C. The enzyme that catalyzes the addition of phosphate molecules to ADP in order to make ATP is called a kinase. D. In both glycolysis and Krebs cycle, the energy released from the breakdown of molecules is being...

NAD+ -dependent Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate + Dehydrogenase from Thermoproteus tenax. 1. Name the three enzymes that catalyze irreversible, regulated reactions in glycolysis as studied in class. 2. What is the significance of the GAPDH reaction in E. coli to glycolysis? 3. How does the reaction catalyzed by GAPDH from T. tenax presented here differ from the reaction carried out in E. coli? 4. The activity of the GAPDH enzyme was assayed in the presence of a constant amount of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and an...
Patient's suffering from von Gierke's disease have a deficiency in the hydrolase that converts glucose-6-phosphate-glucose +inorganic phosphate (P). One of the most prominent symptoms of von Gierke's disease is a protruding abdomen due to an enlarged liver 3. a) How does the fate of glucose-6-phosphate in a von Gierke's patient explain the enlarged liver? b) Based on what you have learned so far, describe what would happen to a von Gierke's patient who has fasted?
