If phosphofructokinase experienced a mutation that interfered with substrate binding, then what other enzyme is going to be most

immediately impacted in terms of accessing substrate
Biology
1 answer:
frozen [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Aldolase

Explanation:

In the metabolism of glucose( glycolysis) phosphofructokinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversation of fructose-6-phosphate into fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. This in turn is converted to pyruvate after various steps of enzymatic activity in the glycolytic pathway.

If phosphofructokinase experienced a mutation that interfered with substrate binding, the enzyme that is going to be most immediately impacted in terms of accessing substrate is the ALDOLASE.

Aldolase enzymes cleave fructose-1,6-bisphosphate to triose phosphates( glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and dihydroxy-acetone phosphate) facilitating an increase in anaerobic production of ATP in muscle.

Therefore, the substrate for binding of aldolase, which is fructose-1,6-bisphosphate is lacking due to mutation of phosphofructokinase enzyme.

Does the stomach only does chemical digestion to break down food?
bonufazy [111]
In the stomach, food undergoes chemical and mechanical digestion. Peristaltic contractions (mechanical digestion) churn the bolus, which mixes with strong digestive juices that the stomach lining cells secrete (chemical digestion). As food travels from your mouth into your digestive system, it's broken down by digestive enzymes that turn it into smaller nutrients that your body can easily absorb. This breakdown is known as chemical digestion.
