gluconeogenesis occurs where
liver
role of malate in gluconeogenesis
cross mitochondrial membrane to cytosol
converts back to oxaloacetate
oxaloacetate converted to PEP by PEP carboxykinase
hormones involved in glucoenogenesis
stimulated by glucagon and cortisol
inhibited by insulin
what are the primary precursors for gluconeogenesis
glycerol, lactate, amino acids
transamination of alanine
pyruvate
transamination of aspartate
oxaloacetate
transamination of glutamate
, a-ketoglutarate
what is the regulatory enzyme of gluconeogenesis
glucose-6-phosphate
what is the regulatory enzyme of glycogen synthesis
glycogen synthase
hormonal regulation of glycogen synthesis
stimulated by insulin
inhibited by glucagon
regulatory enzyme of glycogen degradation
glycogen phosphorylase
hormonal regulation of glycogen degradation
stimulated by glucagon and epinephrine
HMP shunt AKA
pentose phosphate pathway AKA phoshphogluconate pathway
location of HMP shunt
cytosol
functions of the HMP shunt
