🗑
What disaccharide cannot be digested by the sucrose-isomaltase complex?   glucose a,a-1,1 glucose  
🗑
GLUT-1   Red blood cells, blood brain barrier  
🗑
GLUT-2   Liver, Pancreatic B-cells, contraluminal membrane of intestinal epithelial cells (accepts all 3 monosaccharides)  
🗑
GLUT-3   Brain  
🗑
GLUT-4   Adipose tissue, skeletal muscle, heart muscle (insulin sensitive)  
🗑
GLUT-5   Intestinal epithelial cells, sperm (fructose transporter)  
🗑
SGLT-1   Intestinal epithelial cells (Na dependent)  
🗑
SGLT-2   Kidney (Na dependent)  
🗑
Glucose uptake by muscle is stimulated by what?   AMP  
🗑
AMP-stimulated protein kinase translocation of GLUT-4 is generated in what reaction?   Adenylate kinase reaction  
🗑
The liver is insulin dependent/independent?   Independent  
🗑
True/False: Under low glucose conditions glucokinase is bound to GKRP in the hepatocyte nucleus.   True  
🗑
True/False: Under high glucose conditions glucokinase is bound to GKRP in the hepatocyte nucleus.   False, it is released from GKRP, travels to cytoplasm and phosphorylates glucose.  
🗑
True/False: Hexokinase is found in all tissues and is inhibited by glucose 6-phosphate.   True  
🗑
True/False: In the absence of a glycogen fragment, a specific protein, glycogenin, can serve as an acceptor of glucose residues.   True  
🗑
True/False: Glycogenin transfers a few molecules of glucose from UDP-glucose to form a short chain to be further elongated by glycogen synthase.   True  
🗑
The enzyme responsible for cleaving a block of 5-8 residues and reattaching them at a more interior site is   Glucosyl transferase  
🗑
What does phosphorylase do to glucose residues?   Removes glucose residues from the nonreducing ends to form glucose 1-P.  
🗑
What does glycogen synthase do to a glycogen molecule?   It transfers glucose from UDPG to a nonreducing end of a pre-existing glycogen molecule.  
🗑
What does phosphoprotein phosphatase-1 do when bound to its inhibitor?   Once the inhibitor is activated by phosphorylation, it will bind to the phosphatase and inactivate it, removing its inhibition on active phosphorylase and inactive synthase.  
🗑
What three things does protein kinase A do?   Activates phosphorylase, inactivates synthase, and activates phosphatase inhibitor, all by phosphorylation.  
🗑
What are the key differences between epinephrine and glucagon?   Epinephrine acts in liver and muscle, glucagon acts just in liver. Epinephrine comes from adrenal medulla and glucagon comes from a-cells of pancreas.  
🗑
True/False: Glucagon binds to the glucagon receptor in the liver and activates adneylate cyclase, via G-proteins. cAMP binds to protein kinase A.   True  
🗑
True/False: Protein kinase A activates phosphorylase kinase by phosphorylation, which in turn, phosphorylates glycogen phosphorylase b, thereby converting it to the active phosphorylase a.   True  
🗑
What are three kinases that phosphorylate glycogen synthase?   Protein kinase A, phosphorylase kinase, glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3)  
🗑
What enzyme is activated by insulin and decreases cAMP?   Phosphodiesterase  
🗑
What membrane bound enzyme is activated when epinephrine binds to a-receptors in the liver that involve G-proteins as the activator?   Phosholipase C (PLC)  
🗑
What two products are formed when PLC hydrolyzes phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PIP)?   Diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol triphosphate (IP3)  
🗑
What does IP3 stimulate the release of from the endoplasmic reticulum?   Calcium  
🗑
Protein kinase C is activated by what two things?   Calcium and DAG  
🗑
The calcium-calmodulin complex activates what two enzymes?   Calmodulin-dependent protein kinase & Phosphorylase kinase  
🗑
What three enzymes all phosphorylate glycogen synthase when epinephrine is bound to a-agonist receptors?   Protein kinase C, Calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, and Phosphorylase kinase  
🗑
True/False: Insulin inactivates glycogen synthase kinase-3.   True  
🗑
AMP formed from ATP during muscular contraction binds to and activates what enzyme?   Glycogen phosphorylase b (active without phosphorylation)  
🗑
Where is calcium released from after nerve impulses initiate contraction?   Sarcoplasmic reticulum  
🗑
Once calcium is released into the cytosol of a muscle cell it binds to calmodulin, making a calcium-calmodulin complex that binds to and activates what enzyme?   Phosphorylase kinase (active without phosphorylation)  
🗑
True/False: The cascade caused by epinephrine in muscle is the same as in the liver.   True  
🗑
What is the defective enzyme in Von Gierke's Disease?   Glucose 6-phosphatase; causes massive enlargement of liver, hypoglycemia, ketosis, hyperuricemia, hyperlipemia  
🗑
What is the defective enzyme in Pompe's Disease?   a-1,4-glucosidase; causes cardiorespiratory failure and causes death before age 2.
