During one cross-bridging cycle in striated muscle one ATP molecule is hydrolyzed. Explain the two times when the energy from this hydrolysis is used, and what “work” is done in each case.

Expert Solution

The ATP hydrolysis releases energy with yielding adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate. ATP hydrolysis releases energy, that changes the angle of the myosin head into a “cocked” position.

1. During one cross-bridging cycle in striated muscle one ATP molecule is hydrolyzed. Explain the two times when the energy from this hydrolysis is used, and what “work” is done in each case. 2. Define what it means for a protein to be a calmodulin. Explain the role of the calmodulin protein that is part of the actin-linked regulatory system in striated muscle.

if an ATP molecule is hydrolyzed (by two water molecules) all the way to AMP (and two Pi) in two steps, how many total kcal/mol of energy could be released? Explain. Using this equation. ADP + H2O -> AMP + Pi + 7.3 kcal/mo

Smooth muscle, like striated muscle, utilizes Ca2+ as a signal molecule that can allow contraction to occur. However, smooth muscle does not have troponin or tropomyosin. Therefore, Ca2+ must interact with other proteins. Describe these relationships.

During the crossbridge cycle of skeletal muscle contraction, the binding of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to the globular myosin head first causes which of the following? Select one: a. Movement of tropomyosin to expose the myosin binding site on the actin molecule b. Myosin head to bind to actin c. Myosin head to detach from actin d. Myosin head to swing forward pulling actin toward the M-line e. Myosin head to be cocked into its high-energy state

The sodium potassium pump transports 5 ions for every molecule of ATP that is hydrolyzed: 3 Na+ out of the cell and 2 K+ into the cell. The pump maintains internal Na+ at 13 mM and external Na+ at 144 mM; it maintains internal K+ at 138 mM and external K+ at 9 mM. Assuming that the membrane potential is –66 mV (inside negative relative to outside), the temperature is 37 °C, and F is 23.1 kcal/V·mol, how much energy...

A sodium-potassium pump uses one ATP during each cycle. Imagine that 12 times per second a pump goes through a cycle of exporting three sodium ions and importing two potassium ions. How many glucose molecules does the cell break down by aerobic respiration to power this one pump for a minute? (Recall that aerobic respiration of one glucose molecule theoretically yields 36 ATP.)
