In this article we will discuss about the Biosynthetic Pathway of Gluconeogenesis. Biosynthetic Pathway from Pyruvate to Glucose: Starting from glucose and ending with pyruvate, there are ten reaction steps in glycolysis. In gluconeogenesis direction, most of the reaction steps in the reverse sequence from pyruvate to glucose are catalysed by the enzymes of the glycolytic sequence, and thus proceed [...]
In this article we will discuss about the Pentose Phosphate Pathway (Respiration). After reading this article you will learn about: 1. Sequence of Reactions in the Pentose Phosphate Pathway 2. Regulation of the Pentose Phosphate Pathway. Sequence of Reactions in the Pentose Phosphate Pathway: The enzymes of the pentose phosphate cycle occur in the extra-mitochondrial soluble portion of the cell, [...]
The theories are: 1. The Chemical Coupling Theory 2. The Conformational Coupling Theory 3. The Chemiosmotic Theory 4. Binding-Change Mechanism of ATP Synthesis Theory. Mechanism of Energy Transduction: Theory # 1. The Chemical Coupling Theory: Slater (1953) originally suggested that during the oxidation of a component of electron transport chain, the energy released is trapped by the formation of a [...]
