Food for your thoughts on Biochemistry for Midterm review-2021-2022-II

1) Enzyme is widely used in many fields as food processing, environment,

agriculture, medicine, …student chooses one and discuss the application of
enzyme

2) 3) Active site occupies a small part of enzyme protein, but it is the place where substrate
comes and combines with. Base your understanding, clarify the structure and property
of active site.

3) Show your understanding by taking keynotes of enzyme functions and enzyme

inhibition, and give examples, where possible

4) Encapsulate the essentially important fate of metabolic pathways in general and in a

particular case for each kind of nutrient (Carbohydrates, Fats (Lipids)
and Proteins- Amino acids).

5) Show out and demonstrate for your understanding upon the key roles of
carbohydrates metabolism and the utmost important metabolic pathways.

6) Summarily discuss about the intermediates of the Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle

(TCA) and their roles in human metabolism.

7) What is metabolism and why do you need to study it? Based on your best
understanding of metabolism, summarize the key notes related to its basic roles and
functions of metabolism in the living organisms.

8) What do you know about glycolysis, focus on structure of intermediates as well as

enzymes, NADHs and ATPs?

9) Discuss and exemplify the differences between anabolism and Catabolism,

where possible.

10) Show your understanding upon the need of human beings for the optimal
functions of the oxidative phosphorylation as well as What would happen if the
oxidative phosphorylation wouldn’t work properly. Explain with concrete examples.

11) Focus and discuss the energy generating pathways of carbon hydrate metabolism

12) What is Biochemistry and its covering scopes as well as its applications in life
sciences?

13) What do you know about the enzyme kinetic? Write down the Michaelis-Menten
equation and discuss the Vmax and Km
