Summary Introduction
To review:
The gain of energy by the cell through the action of enzyme dihydroxyacetone kinase that phosphorylates dihydroxyacetone to dihydroxyacetone phosphate.
Introduction:
In a cell, catabolism of glucose is a very common source of energy. Glucose also serves as a substrate for the synthesis of five-carbon sugars for the formation of

Kinases catalyze the transfer of a phosphate group from a phosphate donor such as adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to a substrate. A well‑known kinase is hexokinase. Hexokinase catalyzes the first step of the glycolysis cycle, and converts glucose to glucose‑6‑phosphate.
The reaction of glucose with ATP is shown. The enzyme‑bound base is abbreviated as :B−, and ATP is abbreviated as a diphosphate bonded to adenosine monophosphate (AMP).
The first arrow of the reaction mechanism is drawn for you; draw the remaining curved arrows to show how phosphorylation occurs.

BCR-ABL is a kinase. A kinase is a type of enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of phosphate from one molecule to another. What are the substrates for the reaction that BCR-ABL catalyzes? Select all that are true.a- Substrate protein
b- BCR-ABL
c-ATP
d- None of the listed molecules here
In hepatocytes, the enzyme glucokinase catalyzes the ATP-coupled phosphorylation of glucose. Glucokinase binds both ATP
and glucose, forming a glucose-ATP-enzyme complex. The enzyme then transfers the phosphoryl group directly from ATP
to glucose.
Select the advantages of phosphoryl group transfer compared to hydrolysis and subsequent phosphorylation?
Glucokinase increases the transition state energy, favoring glucose phosphorylation.
Reaction intermediates do not need to be present in excess.
The process takes advantage of the high phosphoryl group transfer potential of ATP.
ATP hydrolysis is thermodynamically unfavorable compared to group transfer.

- A mutation has occurred that results in phosphofructokinase not being able to bind ATP in its allosteric site. What impact will this mutation have on the production of ATP in the cell? Select one: a. If no ATP can bind to the allosteric site, then phosphofructokinase will not be able to add the phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate to make fructose-1,6-bisphosphate and glycolysis will not work. So no pyruvate, not cellular respiration. b. If ATP cannot bind to the allosteric site, phosphofructokinase will not be activated to make more ATP by substrate-level phosphorylation. c. No impact on the production but will not be able to effectively shut off over production of ATP with feedback inhibition.arrow_forwardLook at the glycolysis pathway (Figure 22.3).
