Pregunta 68
Pregunta
How does citrate influence glycolysis?
Respuesta
-
Phosphofructokinase is inhibited by citrate, which is an intermediate in the citric acid cycle
-
Thus, if citrate levels are high, the enzyme is inhibited, and fewer glucose molecules are metabolized
-
In this sense, citrate serves as a cell indicator
-
High levels of citrate in the cytoplasm means that biosynthetic precursors are abundant, and sot here is no need to degrade additional glucose for this purpose

Two forms exist, called M and H, which predominate in the skeletal and heart muscle, respectively

-
The two forms differ in their sensitivity to pyruvate
-
H+ functions primarily to oxidize lactate to pyruvate, which serves as a fuel for aerobic metabolism. In contrast, M4 produces lactate so that glycolysis can continue under anaerobic conditions
