What is the net production of atp molecules per glucose molecule in the muscles if glycogen is the source of the glucose?.

Respuesta :

3 mol

If glycogen is the source of the glucose, the muscles produce 3 mol of ATP for every molecule of glucose.

To maintain the oxidation of glucose and the net output of 2 ATP per mol of glucose oxidized, NADH is converted to NAD+ via the conversion of pyruvate to lactate, which is mediated by lactate dehydrogenase (or 3 mol of ATP if the source is muscle glycogen).

Adenosine triphosphate, or ATP,

When glycogen is broken down in the muscles, the following reaction takes place:

(Glucose)n + Pi (Glucose)n-1 + (Glucose)-1-phosphate

If glucose comes from glycogen, what is the net generation of ATP molecules per glucose molecule in the muscles?

NADH is converted to NAD+ via the conversion of pyruvate to lactate, which is catalyzed by lactate dehydrogenase, in order to maintain the oxidation of glucose and the net yield of 2 ATP per mol of glucose oxidized (or 3 mol of ATP if the source is muscle glycogen).

What is the glucose molecule's net ATP production?

In aerobic respiration, one glucose molecule results in a net ATP gain of 38 ATP. It includes the ATP generated during the glycolysis process, link reaction, TCA cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation in the electron transport system from the oxidation of NADH and FADH2, which results in the production of 3 ATP and 2 ATP, respectively.
