26
Q

What are the 3 Rate Limiting Enzymes? In order:

A

1) Hexokinase
2) PFK – Phosphofructokinase (tell you no or yes)
3) Pyruvate Kinase (will we produce pyruvate?)

27
Q

What is Onset of Blood Lactate (OBLA)

A

when the concentration of blood lactate
reaches 4 mmol/L.

Lactate Threshold is 2mmol/L

28
Q

Another Important enzyme which can replenish ATP is called:

A

Adenylate Kinase or Myokinase

29
Q

What is the importance of AMP as a product of the Phosphogen System?

A

AMP is a powerful stimulant of glycolysis

30
Q

What is the result when Lactate Dehydrogenase catalyzes Pyruvate?

A

Lactate + H+ (hydrogen proton)

31
Q

True or False: Lactate is not the cause of fatigue

A

True

32
Q

What happens to Pyruvate if O2 is present?

A

Pyruvate is transported to the mitochondria and is converted to Acetyl-CoA so that it may enter the Krebs Cycle to be converted into ATP

33
Q

What happens to Pyruvate if there is no O2 present?

A

Pyruvate is converted to catalyzed by Lactate Dehydrogenase into Lactate

34
Q

What is the net reaction for glycolysis when pyruvate enters the mitochondria?

A

Glucose + 2Pi + 2ADP + 2 NAD+ –> Pyruvate + 2 ATP + 2NADH + 2H2O

35
Q

What is the difference between Oxidative Phosphorilation vs Substrate Level Phosphorilation?

A

OxP is the resynthesis of ATP in the ETC

SLOxP is the direct resynthesis of ATP from ADP

36
Q

What is Phosphorilation?

A

the process of adding an inorganic phosphate to another molecule.

E.g. ADP + Pi = ATP

37
Q

What are the two enzymes that can be used during Substrate Level Phosphorilation?

A

Phosphoglycerate Kinase & Pyruvate Kinase

38
Q

True or False: The Phosphagen System can produce ATP from Blood Glucose and Muscle Glycogen with O2 Present

A

FALSE : (Slow) Glycolysis is the form of metabolism when O2 is present

39
Q

What is the end product of Glycolysis if O2 is present?

A

Pyruvate

40
Q

What is GTP?

A

Guarine Tri-Phosphate

Generates 2ATP indirectly from each glucose molecule during SLOxP in the Krebs Cycle

41
Q

How can Fats be used by the Oxidative E System>

A

TRIGLYCERIDES stored in fat cells can be broken down by LIPASE, releasing Free Fatty Acids (FFA) into the blood which then enters the muscle fibers.

The FFA enter the mitochondria to undergo BETA OXIDATION which breakdown into Acetyl-CoA and H+

42
Q

How can Proteins be used for E?

A

Proteins can be broken down into AAs which can be converted into glucose, pyruvate or other Krebs Cycle intermediates in via gluconeogenesis to produce ATP

43
Q

True or False: During either exercise or rest, each of the three Energy Systems provide a complete supply of E

A

FALSE: You always begin with Phosphagen and use the multiple E systems together:

Phosphagen –> Glycolysis –> Oxidative System

44
Q

What to know about Phosphagens

A

o Creatine phosphate can decrease noticeably (50-70%) during the first stage (5-30seconds) of high-intensity exercise and can be almost eliminated as a result of very intense exercise to exhaustion
o Postexercise Phosphagen repletion can occur in a relatively short period; complete resynthesis of ATP appears to occur within 3-5min and complete creatine phosphate resynthesis can occur within 8 minutes
 Can train to replenish faster

45
Q

What to know about Glycogen

A

o The rate of glycogen depletion is related to exercise intensity
 At relative intensities of exercise above 60% of maximal oxygen uptake, muscle glycogen becomes an increasingly important E substrate; the entire glycogen content of some muscle cells can become depleted during exercise
 Repletion of muscle glycogen during recovery is related to postexercise CHO ingestion
