How does the cell regulate the substrate specificity of ribonucleotide reductase to maintain equal amounts of all four deoxynucl

eoside triphosphates (dNTPs)? Choose one or more: A. When dTTP is bound to the specificity site, more dCDP is produced. B. When dGTP is bound to the specificity site, more dUDP is produced. C. When dTTP is bound to the specificity site, more dGDP is produced. D. When dGTP is bound to the specificity site, more dADP is produced.

Answer:

The correct answer is A When dTTP is bound to the specificity site, more dCDP is produced

Explanation:

Ribonucleotide reductase catalyzes the conversion of ribonucleotide to deoxyribonucleotide.

                  When dTTP is bound to the specificity site at that time dCDP is produced.The So formed dCDP is converted to dUDP by the help of dCDP deaminase.The dUDP is then converted to dUTP by phosphorylation.

               Finally the dUTP is converted to dTTP by the catalytic activity of thymidylate synthase with the presence of N5 N10 methylene tetrahydrofolate.

        Thus equal amount of deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates  are maitained by the cell.

The process of Beta-oxidation and fatty acid synthesis are regulated in such a manner that neither process is active at the same
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

c) Acetyl COA carboxylase; citrate

Explanation:

Citrate serves as an allosteric activator for fatty acid synthesis and diverts the cellular metabolism from the consumption of metabolic fuel to the storage of fuel as fatty acids. When the concentrations of mitochondrial acetyl-CoA and ATP increase, citrate is transported out of mitochondria into the cytosol. In the cytosol, citrate serves as the precursor of cytosolic acetyl-CoA and an allosteric activator of acetyl-CoA carboxylase.

The enzyme Acetyl-CoA carboxylase has three functional regions. Its biotin carboxylase activates CO2 and its transcarboxylase transfers activated CO2 from biotin to acetyl-CoA to produce malonyl-CoA.
