Gluconeogenesis Triacylglycerol hydrolysis is not a reversal of glycolysis noncarbohydrate precursors of Glc, carbon skeleton take place in liver, minor in kidney, brain, skeletal and heart muscle, to maintain the Glc level in the blood Glc is the primary fuel of brain, and the only fuel of red blood cells protein breakdown active skeletal muscle

Glycolysis vs. Gluconeogenesis ¤Three irreversible reactions, irrespective Glycolysis: hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase Gluconeogenesis: glucose 6-phosphatase, fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase, pyruvate carboxylase, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase
The stoichiometry of Glycolysis vs. Gluconeogenesis ¤Glycolysis: Glucose + 2 ADP + 2 Pi + 2 NAD+ 2 Pyr + 2 ATP + 2 NADH + 2H+ + 2 H2O G0’= - 20 kcal / mol if reverse? ¤Gluconeogenesis: 2 Pyr + 4 ATP + 2 GTP + 2 NADH + 6 H2O Glucose + 4 ADP + 2 GDP + 6 Pi + 2 NAD+ + 2H+ G0’= - 9 kcal / mol NTP hydrolysis is used to power an energetically unfavorable reaction Both reactions are exergonic

Pyruvate carboxylase(Pyr + CO2 + ATP + H2O OAA + ADP + Pi + 2 H+) (ATP-activating domain, p. 711) The onlymitochondrial enzymes among the enzymes of gluconeogenesis Carbonic anhydrase HCO3-+ ATP HOCO2-PO32- + ADP carboxyphosphate: activated form of CO2 Biotin-Enz + HOCO2-PO32- CO2-biotin-Enz + Pi is activated by acetyl CoA (p. 493) CO2-biotin-Enz + Pyr biotin-Enz + OAA S -amino group of Lys (PCase)
Free glucose generation (Does not take place in cytoplasm) F1,6bisP F6P G6P••• Glc The endpoint of gluconeogenesis in most tissues, can keep Glc or G6P is converted into glycogen. In liver and to a lesser extent the kidney, five proteins are involved SP: a calcium-binding stabilizing protein Gluconeogenesis
p. 465 Reciprocal control:Glycolysis and gluconeogenesis are not highly active at the same time – Energy state – Intermedia: allosteric effectors – Regulators: hormones Amounts and activities of distinctive enzymes Starvation: glucagon rich in precursors high energy state Fed state: insulin low energy state

Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate: synthesis and degradation PEP carbokinase F 1,6-bisphosphatase Glycolytic enzymes (pyruvate kinase) In liver:
The first irreversible reaction of glycolysis:Glc G6P ¤Hexokinase: is inhibited by G6P Km of sugars: 0.01 ~ 0.1 mM Glucokinase: not inhibited by G6P Km of glucose: ~10 mM present in liver, to monitor blood-glucose level. ¤Committed step the most important control step in the pathway G6P glycogen biosynthesis fatty acid biosynthesis pentose phosphate pathway
Hormones ¤Affect the expression of the gene of the essential enzymes – change the rate of transcription – regulate the degradation of mRNA ¤ allosteric control (~ms); phosphorylation control (~ s); transcription control (~ h to d) The promoter of the PEP carboxykinase (OAAPEP) gene IRE: insulin response element; GRE: glucocorticoid response element TRE: thyroid response element CRE: cAMP response element
