Hepatocytes synthesize fatty acids, and most of the fatty acids are esterified into TAG, which will be:
Answer
  • released to circulation directly and carried by plasma proteins
  • carried by a lipoprotein called VLDL through the circulation
  • carried by a lipoprotein called LDL through the circulation
  • carried by either VLDL or chylomicron through the circulation
  • carried by a lipoprotien called chylomicron through the circulation

Question 92

Question
In most cells, reduced glutathione is used to protect cells from damage caused by reactive oxygen species. The most important metabolic pathway that maintains the intracellular levels of reduced glutathione is:
Answer
  • pentose pathway
  • glycolytic pathway
  • krebs cycle
  • gluconeogenesis
  • fatty acid beta oxidation

Question 93

Question
After biosynthesis, palmitate can be elongated to stearate in either mitochondria or endoplasmic reticulum. Both palmitate or stearate can be modified by desaturation at delta9, which is catalyzed by an enzyme located at:
Answer
  • mitochondria
  • rough endoplasmic reticulum
  • cytosol
  • smooth endoplasmic reticulum
  • cell surface

Question 94

Question
Glycolysis contains 10 steps, among which 7 steps are reversible and 3 steps are not reversible in glyconeogenesis. The three non-reversible steps are:
Answer
  • A. hexokinase catalyzed Glucose to G6P
  • B. phosphofructokinase (PFK) catalyzed F6P to F1, 6BP
  • C. Pyruvate kinase catalyzed PEP to enol pyruvate
  • A, B, and C
  • A and B

Question 95

Question
The most important substrate/s for gluconeogenesis upon starvation is/are:
Answer
  • carbon skeletons from catabolism of most amino acids
  • fatty acids from TAG break down
  • propionyl-CoA from catabolism of odd-numbered fatty acids
  • glycerol from TAG breakdown
  • acetyl CoA from fatty acid beta-oxidation
