Define, describe, and explain the importance of low versus high
energy charge. Why can’t a cell just make as much ATP as it wants
and keep the ATP on hand until it is needed?

Regulation of GNG and glycolysis
Describe how high energy charge favors gluconeogenesis
over glycolysis based on the ratio of [ATP]/[AMP] of high energy
charge and allosteric regulation (McKee page 298).
Describe how low energy charge measured by low ratio of
[ATP]/[AMP] inhibits the rate of GNG based on allosteric regulation
of fructose 1,6 bisphosphatase by AMP.
Compare the rates of GNG and glycolysis in a liver cell
with low energy charge based on allosteric
regulation.
