Question

5. Which of the following molecules could be used as a carbon source for gluconeogenesis, in animals? Explain for each, including which enzymes would be involved in getting the substrate to the committed step of gluconeogenesis. Note: alanine is made from pyruvate in a single step (don't worry about the name of this enzyme). a. Pyruvate b. Malate c. Acetyl CoA d. Glycerol e. Alanine 6. Which of the substrates above (problem 5) would be the most likely substrate for gluconeogenesis under the following conditions (more than one answer may be possible for each): a. During starvation b. After an all-protein meal c. After an all-fat meal d. During rested, well-fed conditions
