Determine whether each phrase describes glucokinase, hexokinase isozymes I–III, or all hexokinase isozymes. Note: Assume that the kinetic behavior of hexokinase isozymes in vivo is similar to in vitro. Glucokinase (hexokinase IV) Hexokinase I, II, or III All hexokinase isozymes (I–IV)

Answer from: reganjones89

Glucokinase (Hexokinase IV):

- Subcellular localization is regulated by frutose 6-phosphate

- present in tissues that sense blood glucose levels

- not sensitive to inhibition by glucose 6-phosphate

- plays an important role in liver regulation of blood glucose level

Hexokinase I, II, or III

- when blood glucose levels fall below normal range, maintains maximum velocity

- when blood glucose is low, will cause cells to trap glucose by phosphorytation

- wil be saturated by normal blood glucose concentrations

All hexokinase isozymes (I-IV)

- will phosphorylate several hexoses including glucose

Answer from: Longjeremiahs5797

Glucokinase ( Hexokinase IV): Plays significant role, not sensisitve

Hexokinase I II or III : In tissues,

Explanation:

A) Plays a significant role in liver regulation of blood glucse levels. (It is present within liver).

B) It is not sensitive to inhibition by glucose-6-phoaphate(remians active even when glucose is abundant and is not effected by allosteric inhibition.)

C) Subcellular localisation is regulated by fructose-6-phosphate (when fructose -6-phosphate concentration is high causes localisation of hexokinase IV to nucleus as it is inhibited by high Fructose-6-phosphate concentration and releases into cytosol when glucose concntration is high)

2. Hexokinase I II or III :

A)Present in tissues that sense blood glucose levels.

B) When blood glucose levels fall below normal range maintains maximum velocity. ( since it has high affinity for glucose and low glucose concentration favors low Km for hexokinase I II III) .

Mike was adopted, and his biological family history is unknown. although he is healthy, he would like some understanding of his genetic makeup, including potential health risks and genes that he could pass on to his children. mike has heard about commercial laboratories that can compare segments of your dna to those of people with common hereditary diseases in order to give you some idea of how susceptible you are to the diseases. the results of these types of tests are highly inconclusive. if mike's dna showed that he shares similarities in a segment of dna with people who have a given disease, his chances of developing that disease or passing it on to his children may be slightly elevated, but they are not 100 percent. these tests can cost more than $2,500 and are not covered by many insurance companies. do you think that mike should undergo the genetic tests? explain your answer. what are the potential pros and cons of having such tests done? describe how the availability of these genetic tests might affect the frequency of genetic diseases in individuals and populations.
