MELAS
Definition
heteroplasmic, point mutation, bad msucles, heaaches, vomiting, strokes, NADH dehydrogenase, some tRNAs, diabets, deafness
Term
MERRF
Definition
heteroplasmic - point mutation in tRNAlys, epilespy in ragged-red muscle fibers, ataxia,dementia
Term
KSS
Definition
kearns-Sayre, large deletion, heart problems, ataxia, diabetes, somatic mutations
Term
CPEO
Definition
chronic progressive external opthalmoplegia
the MELAS tRNA mutation and large deletions, rapid loss of eye musles heteroplasmic
inheritance of point mutations
somatic deletions
Term
mitochondrial mutations
missense
single base in tRNA
dup and dels
Definition
missense - LHON
single base in tRNA-MERF, MELAS
Dup and Del - KSS, Peasrson, CPEO
Term
Gluconeogenesis irreversible enzymes
Definition
Pathway Produces Fresh Glucose
1) Pyruvate carboxylase does not allow it to be made into acteyl CoA
2) PEP carboxykinase goes reverse to pyruate carboxylase
3) Fructose 1,6 Bisphsphatase (beats pfk-1)
4) Glucose 6 phosphatase (beats glucokinase)
Term
Galactokinase deficinecy
Definition
mild, glasctose can just leave the cells and does not have to accumulate as it is never phosphorylated, bad eyes as they have ALDOSE REDUCTASE which is osmotically active
Term
GALT mutation
Definition
galactosemia - now is accumulates everywhere, rush of water into cell
Term
fructokinase problem
Definition
fructosuria, mild/benign
Term
fructose intolerance
Definition
caused by aldolase b problem after fructose has already been brought into the cell and phosphorylated. Biggest roblem is hypoglycemia as it has grabbed all the phosphates so we cannot do gluconeogenesis
Term
sorbitol dehydrogenase problems
Definition
glucose to sorbitol to fructose after too much glucose is in blood, good way to trap it, but now i is stuck as sorbitol which causes damage
Term
What does glycogen degrade to?
Definition
Glucose 1-phosphate, converted to Glucose-6 phosphate
Term
Glycogen storage diseases
Definition
Very Poor carbohydrate metabolism
Von Gierkes
Pompes
Coris
McArdles
Term
Two Ez glycogen metabolism deficiencys
Definition
muscle - McArdles
liver(hepatocytes) - her's disease, only see when working out
both cause hypoglycemia either when working out or between meals
Term
ABCD
Definition
Anderson has branching enzyme deficiency
Cori has debranching enzyme deficinecy
Term
Pompe's disease
Definition
trashes the pump (heart), lysomes cannot break down glycogen
Term
Von Gierke's
Definition
glucose 6 phosphatase - allows glucose 6 phosphate to go to glucose and leave the liver cells, serve hypoglycemia
Term
What three substances can undergo gluconeogenesis?
Definition
lactate, alanine, glycerol
lactate and alanine can be derived from pyruvate

glycerol can be from fats (enters cycles goes to DHAP - Glyceraldehyde)
Term
Main control of Glycolysis vs Gluconeogenesis
Definition
control PFK-1; Fructose 1,6 bisphosphatase
lots of fructose 2,6 bisphosphate will push towards PFK and glycolysis
Term
I Cell
PKU
Tay Sachs
XALT
Definition
incorrect mannose, lysosome proteins secreted out of cell
PKU - phen
XALT - long fatty acids can not be broken down by proteosomes
Tay Sachs - hexosamidiase in lysosome, GM2 builds up and destroys brains
