Glycolysis MCQs

Question For every one molecule of sugar glucose which is oxidized __________ molecule of pyruvic acid are produced. In the glycogen synthase reaction, the precursor to glycogen is

Answer 2

UDP-Glucose

The enzymes of glycolysis in a eukaryotic cell are located in the

When concentration of the reactants is higher than the equilibrium concentration then

Cytosol
Gibbs free energy is negative More products will be formed

Glycolysis

does not require oxygen The pathway requires two moles of ATP to get started catabo-lizing each mole of glucose
Is found in all organisms The Fo base-piece of ATP synthase (without the Fl subunit) and dinitrophenol

The glycolytic pathway (glucose 2 pyruvate) is found Which of the following could act as an uncoupler of electron transport and ATP synthesis?

Phosphofructokinase, the major fluxcontrolling enzyme of glycolysis is allosterically inhibited and activated respectively by During glycolysis, the major energy generating step involves Fructose-2,6-bisphosphate Glucose from the breakdown of glycogen is obtained in

ATP and ADP

glyceraldehyde-3 -dehydrogenase activates phosphofructokinase inhibits fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase the liver by phosphorolysis the muscles by phosphorolysis

which molecule acts as a signal amplifier AMP when concentrations of ATP are low to increase the phosphofructokinase activity ? Which of the following enzymes catalyzes the first committed step of glycolysis? The conversion of pyruvate to lactate by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is accompanied by the consumption of: The net yield of ATP in anaerobic glycolysis (ATP/glucose) in the presence of arsenate (AsO42-) instead of phosphate is: phosphofructokinase I NADH

Mixing pure O2 into a yeast culture growing on grape juice will cause the yeast to multiply faster and to metabolize the sugars much more rapidly. The effect on the desired final product (wine) would be: Which of the following reactions does not use ATP as a substrate in the glycolysis pathway?
Which of the following reactions has a relatively small DG (calculated for metabolite concentration in erythrocytes)?

A nearly alcohol free beverage

Pyruvate Kinase
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase

The induced fit conformational change in hexokinase occurs when

The modest oxidation that occurs in glycolysis involves the removal of _____ electrons, total, from glucose to pyruvate. The active form of glycogen ___ is phosphorylated; the active form of glycogen ___ is dephosphorylated. A nintermediate found in gluconeogenesis andnot glycolysis is

glucose binds.
four

phosphorylase; synthase oxaloacetate.
