In the rete mirabile serving the red swimming muscles oftunas, some key enzymes of catabolism show gradients ofconcentration: They are more concentrated at the cold end of therete, and less concentrated at the warm end. These variationsparallel variations that are often seen in the thermal acclimationof poikilotherms, when enzyme concentrations rise duringacclimation to cold and fall during acclimation to heat. Whatdo you think could be some of the reasons for these spatial andtemporal variations in enzyme concentration? Why not havethe highest observed enzyme concentrations everywhere at alltimes?
Why does growth of ETPUM in Medium # require oxygen? ' ink about this in terms of howETPUM can generate a net gain in ATP by processing polyurethane. Remember that the degradationof polyurethane by polyurethanase does not expend ATP. In order to answer this question, address eachof the following questions in your answer:a. Is there a net gain or loss of ATP during the transport of the citrate?b. Consider the ATPs that can be generated via substrate-level phosphorylation. Will glycolysis beuseful for generating any ATPs during growth on polyurethane? How many ATPs can be generatedvia TCA? Is this enough to support growth (is there a net positive in the ATP tally)?c. Now consider how else ETPUM can generate ATPs (if not by substrate- level phosphorylation). Canthis process generate a net positive in the ATP tally?d. Now explain the importance of oxygen as relates to the ATP tally.
The standard free energy of hydrolysis of inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) is about −20 kJ/mol for each Pi released. We calculated in Worked Example 13–2 that, in a cell, it takes about 50 kJ/mol of energy to synthesize ATPfrom ADP and Pi. Is it feasible for a cell to use polyphosphate to synthesize ATP from ADP? Explain your answer.
A transmembrane protein helps catalyze the transport of solute A from the INSIDE TO the OUTSIDE of a cell. The reaction can be represented by the reaction coordinate diagram below. It is possible to conclude that the concentration of A on the outside of the cell is than its concentration on the inside AND that it is_ to expect that the protein will at some point form a continuous path between th cytosol and the extracellular environment. A inside A outside reaction coordinate O lower; reasonable O higher; unreasonable O higher; reasonable free energy
Two experiments were performed with the enzymeribonuclease. In experiment 1 the effect of increasingsubstrate concentration on reaction velocity was measured.In experiment 2 the reaction mixtures were identical tothose in experiment 1 except that 0.1 mg of an unknowncompound was added to each tube. Plot the data accordingto the Lineweaver-Burk method. Determine the effect of theunknown compound on the enzyme’s activity. (Substrateconcentration is measured in millimoles per liter. Velocity ismeasured in the change in optical density per hour.)
Suppose the concentration of glucose inside a cell is 0.1 mM and the cell issuspended in a glucose solution of 0.01 mM.(a) What would be the free energy change, in kJ/mol, for the transport ofglucose from the medium into the cell? Assume T = 37 °C.(b) What would be the free energy change, in kJ/mol, for the transport ofglucose from the medium into the cell if the intracellular and extracellularconcentrations were 1 mM and 10 mM, respectively?(c) If the processes described in parts (a) and (b) were coupled toATP hydrolysis, how many moles of ATP would have to be hydrolysed,per mole of glucose transported, in order to make each process favorable? (Use the standard free energy change for ATP hydrolysis.)

Which statements are true? Explain why or why not.1 Although lipid molecules are free to diffuse in theplane of the bilayer, they cannot flip-flop across the bilayerunless enzyme catalysts called phospholipid translocatorsare present in the membrane.2 Whereas all the carbohydrate in the plasma mem-brane faces outward on the external surface of the cell, allthe carbohydrate on internal membranes faces toward thecytosol.3 Although membrane domains with different pro-tein compositions are well known, there are at present noexamples of membrane domains that differ in lipid com-position.
