QuestionAnswer
Lecture 52 Purine Metabolism
___ is the parent nucleotide for AMP and GMP. IMP
___ steps/reactions in IMP synthesis. 11
PRPP Synthetase Catalyzes synthesis of 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pryophosphate (PRPP) from ribose 5-phosphate
Glutamine PRPP Amidotransferase Catalyzes synthesis of 5-phosphoribosylamine from PRPP (nitrogen from glutamine)
IMP branches to ___ or ___ by two steps. AMP or GMP
IMP, GMP, and XMP negative feedback at same site on ___. glutamine PRPP amidotransferase
AMP negative feedback at a different site on ___. glutamine PRPP amidotransferase (same enzyme, different site)
GMP and AMP negative feedback at respective: respective IMP branch point
Feedback regulation of glutamine PRPP amidotransferase is the: conversion from inactive to active state
IMP, GMP, and AMP promote the ___ state. inactive
PRPP promotes the ___ state. active (positive feedback)
PRPP pool size ___ purine nucleotide synthesis. regulates
Purine ribonucleotides act as ___ for PRPP synthetase and glutamine PRPP amidotransferase. allosteric regulators
Glucose-6-Phosphatase Deficiency (GSD Type I, Von Gierke’s Dsiease) Increased flux through pentose phosphate pathway and adenine nucleotide pool degradation
Increased flux through pentose phosphate pathway yields: Increased ribose-5-phosphate, PRPP, IMP/GMP/AMP, and uric acid production
Uric acid overproduction causes ___. gout
Adenine Nucleotide Degradation Type 1 GSD and fructose intolerance, F-1-P aldolase/aldolase B deficiency, triggered by decreased Pi
