May you please help with answers from 2.1 to 2.10 please?
2.1 What kind of reaction is catalyzed by Aconitase?
2.2 Why is NAD+ required by the reaction catalyzed by L-malate dehydrogenase?
2.3 Give two regulatory systems of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex.
2.4 Give three factors that control the flux of metabolites to meet the cell needs.
2.5 Phosphofructokinase-1 is the rate-limiting enzyme in glycolysis. Explain in detail.
2.6 How is it possible for one glucose molecule to be oxidized to 2 pyruvate and 2 ATP molecules?
2.7 What are the two reactions that are important in the glyoxylate pathway and are bypassed in the TCA cycle?
2.8 "TCA cycle is strongly regulated by exergonic steps." Discuss three factors that control the flux of metabolites to meet the cell needs to validate this statement.
2.9 "Oxidation of Pyruvate into the TCA cycle is tightly regulated at three enzymes with three factors governing the control levels." Comment and elaborate on this statement.
2.10 Why is the Glyoxylate pathway so important in a cell?
2.10 Why should TCA cycle intermediates be replenished by Anaplerotic reactions?
