Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 2

Frage
First ingested proteins enter the liver; which of the following are possible metabolic pathways for them?
Antworten
  • Broken down for glucose
  • Sent from liver as branched chain amino acids
  • Converted urea and excreted
  • Broken down for the amino group

Frage 3

Frage
How are amino acids used by most organs (other than building proteins)?
Antworten
  • Broken down for energy
  • To build proteins
  • To shunt metabolites around the blood

Frage 4

Frage
The carbon skeletons of amino acids can enter the intermediary metabolism at 7 different points to make energy
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 5

Frage
Amino acids assist in gluconeogesis by creating intermediates in the cycle that can then be used
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 6

Frage
Alanine can be converted to what?
Antworten
  • Pyruvate + Glutamate
  • Ketoglutamate + Glutamate
  • OAA + Glutamate

Frage 7

Frage
Which amino acid can be converted to OAA/fumarate (and Glutamate) for the TCA cycle
Antworten
  • Aspartate
  • Alanine
  • Glutamate

Frage 8

Frage
Glutamate is used to make Ketoglutamate for the TCA cycle and an NH4 for the urea cycle
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 9

Frage
Which aa is used to move excess NH3 from the peripheral tissues?
Antworten

Antworten
  • Branched chain amino acids
  • Basic amino acids
  • Neutral amino acids

Frage 11

Frage
What is the use of branched chain amino acids?
Antworten
  • Can be temporarily substituted for F.As in all tissues
  • Can be used to shuttle NH3 to the liver
  • Have carbon skeletons that can be attached to proteins

Frage 12

Frage
The inheritance of Maple Syrup Urine Disease is what kind?
Antworten
  • Autosomal recessive
  • Autosomal dominant
  • Sex-Linked

Frage 13

Frage
In MSUD, the mutation is in Branched Chain K-Dehydrogenase, so branched chain amino acids cannot be broken down
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 14

Frage
How is MSUD treated?
Antworten
  • Diet
  • Excess Glut & Ala
  • Excess Phe & Ser
