Unit 3 UNE Biochemistry
Across
- 3. Generated by pyruvate kinase, decarboxylated to Acetyl-CoA inside mitochondria by PDC under aerobic conditions
- 5. Product formed from pyruvate in the cytosol by a dehydrogenase under anaerobic conditions to regenerate NAD+
Down
- 1. Primary anabolic hormone that signals through a receptor tyrosine kinase that promotes glucose uptake in muscle and adipose tissue
- 2. Steroid hormone that diffuses across the cell membrane to bind to a cystolic receptor complexed with a heat shock protein
- 4. Catabolic hormone elevated during fasting that stimulastics hepatic glyocgenolysis, but does not impact skeletal muscle glycogen
