You learned about the aptly named enzyme Citrate Synthase. There are more enzymes that count citrate as substrate or product. Co

mpare and contrast two reactions below that each split two carbons from citrate to make oxaloacetate. One catalyzed by the enzyme ATP Citrate Lyase and the second catalyzed by Citrate Lyase.
Acetyl-CoA
Citrate → ↑ → Oxaloacetate lyase
CoA-SH → ↑ ↑ ←ATP ↓→ ADP + Pi
ATP Citrate
Acetate
Citrate → ↑ ↓→ Oxaloacetate
Citrate lyase

Which of the following is an accurate statement about why ATP is required by ATP Citrate Lyase?

a) The hydrolysis of the thioester involving CoA-SH helps split ATP into ADP and Pi.
b) The hydrolysis of ATP helps "pay for the formation of a thioester involving CoA-SH.
c) The Acetyl-CoA is pulled rapidly away to make lipids so the reaction needs extra energy to make it fast enough to keep up with demand.
d) The two carbons of acetate are more energetic than those on Acetyl-CoA and therefore don't need ATP to split them from citrate.
e) ATP is required to spit the two carbons from citrate.

Answer:

b) The hydrolysis of ATP helps "pay for the formation of a thioester involving CoA-SH.

Explanation:

In the citrate cycle, we know that lysis is mediated by the hydrolysis of ATP, which is the fuel of the reaction, so the correct answer is B. The hydrolysis of ATP helps "pay for the formation of a thioester involving CoA-SH.

PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is an excellent method of generating copies of target DNA. If a single piece of double stranded
enyata [817]

Answer: After 3 rounds, 8 segments having 2 original strands on different segments will be present.

Explanation:

The polymerase chain reaction selectively and repeatedly copy the double stranded DNA (dsDNA) in the PCR machine.

1st round:

Single piece of double stranded DNA (dsDNA) unwinds in two seperate strands, before complementary nucleotides are synthesized to establish double helix.

2nd round:

The two dsDNA yields 4 segments before complementary nucleotides are synthesized

3rd round:

The four dsDNA yields 8 segments before complementary nucleotides are synthesized.

Therefore, at the end of 3 rounds, the two original strands will be present on the 8 different segments of copied DNA.

Which sub-atomic particle is counted to learn the atomic number of that element?
Gnesinka [82]
Helium, with two protons, will have two electrons. In the chemical classroom, the proton count will always be equivalent to an atom's atomic number. This value will not change unless the nucleus decays or is bombarded (nuclear physics). Figure \(\PageIndex{1}\): The periodic table of the elements.
