Question

1. In certain smooth muscles, glucagon increases the amount of glucose available for glycolysis; under this condition, which enzyme is required to convert glucose-1-phosphate into a glycolytic intermediate?

a. G6Pase

b. glucokinase (or hexokinase)

c. phosphoglucomutase

d. no enzyme is needed for this conversion

2. For Complex I, the “Conformation Type” and “Hydrophobicity” Shortcuts in Protein Workshop clearly show that this protein is mostly _________, and Chains _________ are mostly hydrophobic.

a. beta sheet; 1-9

b. alpha helical; A-N

c. beta sheet; A-N

d. alpha helica; 1-9

Explanation / Answer

1. The enzyme phosphoglucomutase (c) is required to convert g-1-p into glycolytic intermediate.

This enzyme convert glucose-1-phosphate into glucose-6-phosphate which is an intermediate of glycolysis.

2. Did not understand the question which complex you are talking about ..kindly give more details.
