Gluconeogenesis

Biology
pharmacy slides which i add too with my own notes from uni they are flashcards

Sample Data

Front What is the 3rd and final step of gluconeognesis
Back The conversion glucose-6-phosphate into glucose by glucose-6-phosphotase(only found in liver or kidney, so these are the only organs that can make free glucose to enter circulation) 
Tags
Front What happens to lactate in order to turn it back into pyruvate and what enzyme is involved and what is special about RBC'S 
Back Lactate is turned into pyruvate by lactate dehydrogenase, RBC's have no mitochondria so can only preform anearobic respiration
Tags
Front What are other feedstocks into the gluconeogenic pathway
Back TCA cycle intermediates derived from amino acids e.g. succinyl CoA (glucogenic AAs)Glycerol from the breakdown of triglycerides by glycerol kinase and then glycerol 3 phophate dehydrogenase to make DHAP
