Pentose PO4 Pathway, Fructose, Galactose Metabolism.Pptx
Pentose PO4 pathway, Fructose, galactose metabolism The Entner Doudoroff pathway begins with hexokinase producing Glucose 6 PO4 , but produce only one ATP. This pathway prevalent in anaerobes such as Pseudomonas, they doe not have a Phosphofructokinase. The pentose phosphate pathway (also called the phosphogluconate pathway and the hexose monophosphate shunt) is a biochemical pathway parallel to glycolysis that generates NADPH and pentoses. While it does involve oxidation of glucose, its primary role is anabolic rather than catabolic. There are two distinct phases in the pathway. The first is the oxidative phase, in which NADPH is generated, and the second is the non-oxidative synthesis of 5-carbon sugars. For most organisms, the pentose phosphate pathway takes place in the cytosol. For each mole of glucose 6 PO4 metabolized to ribulose 5 PO4, 2 moles of NADPH are produced. 6-Phosphogluconate dh is not only an oxidation step but it’s also a decarboxylation reaction. The primary results of the pathway are: The generation of reducing equivalents, in the form of NADPH, used in reductive biosynthesis reactions within cells (e.g. fatty acid synthesis). Production of ribose-5-phosphate (R5P), used in the synthesis of nucleotides and nucleic acids. Production of erythrose-4-phosphate (E4P), used in the synthesis of aromatic amino acids. Transketolase and transaldolase reactions are similar in that they transfer between carbon chains, transketolases 2 carbon units or transaldolases 3 carbon units. Regulation; Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is the rate- controlling enzyme of this pathway. It is allosterically stimulated by NADP+. The ratio of NADPH:NADP+ is normally about 100:1 in liver cytosol. -

Hereditary galactokinase deficiency. A baby with galactokinase deficiency, a recessive inborn error of galactose metabolism, is des- cribed. The case is exceptional in that there was no evidence of gypsy blood in the family concerned. The investigation of neonatal hyperbilirubinaemia led to the discovery of galactosuria. As noted by others, the paucity of presenting features makes early diagnosis difficult, and detection by biochemical screening seems desirable. Cataract formation, of early onset, appears to be the only severe persisting complication and may be due to the biosynthesis and accumulation of galactitol in the lens. Ophthalmic surgeons need to be aware of this enzyme defect, because with early diagnosis and dietary treatment these lens changes should be reversible.

Patented: US 7,785,771 B2 and EP1 828 407 (GB, FR, IE, DE) © Megazyme 2021 INTRODUCTION: Lactose, or milk sugar, is a white crystalline disaccharide. It is formed in the mammary glands of all lactating animals and is present in their milk. Lactose yields D-galactose and D-glucose on hydrolysis by lactase (β-galactosidase), an enzyme found in gastric juice. People who lack this enzyme after childhood cannot digest milk and are said to be lactose intolerant. Common symptoms of lactose intolerance include nausea, cramps, gas and diarrhoea, which begin about 30 minutes to 2 hours after eating or drinking foods containing lactose. Between 30 and 50 million Americans are lactose intolerant, with certain ethnic and racial populations being more widely affected than others; as many as 75 percent of all African-Americans and Native Americans and 90 percent of Asian-Americans are lactose intolerant. The condition is least common among persons of northern European descent. Enzymic methods for the measurement of lactose are well known and are generally based on the hydrolysis of lactose to D-galactose and D-glucose with β-galactosidase, followed by determination of either D-galactose or D-glucose. -

The lens opacification may occur early or later in life, and may be isolated or associated to particular syndromes. We describe some of these metabolic conditions associated with cataract formation, and in particular we report our experience with a patient affected by lathosterolosis that presented bilateral cataracts. Methods: Our patient was a 7-years-old little girl diagnosed with lathosterolosis at age 2 years, through gas cromatography/mass spectrometry method for plasma sterol profile that revealed a peak corresponding to cholest- 7-en-3β-ol (lathosterol). Results: The lens samples obtained during surgical removal with B-MICS technique were sent to the Department of Pathology and routinely processed and stained with haematoxylin-eosin and PAS; then, they were examined under a light microscope. Histological examination revealed lens fragments with the presence of fibers disposed in a honeycomb way, samples characterized by the presence of homogeneous eosinophilic lens fibers, and other fragments characterized by bulgy elements referable to cortical fibers with degenerative characteristics. -

Abstract: History suggests that tasteful properties of sugar have been domesticated as far back as 8000 BCE. With origins in New Guinea, the cultivation of sugar quickly spread over centuries of conquest and trade. The product, which quickly integrated into common foods and onto kitchen tables, is sucrose, which is made up of glucose and fructose dimers. While sugar is commonly associated with flavor, there is a myriad of biochemical properties that explain how sugars as biological molecules function in physiological contexts. Substantial research and reviews have been done on the role of glucose in disease. This review aims to describe the role of its isomers, fructose and mannose, in the context of inborn errors of metabolism and other metabolic diseases, such as cancer. While structurally similar, fructose and mannose give rise to very differing biochemical properties and understanding these differences will guide the development of more effective therapies for metabolic disease. We will discuss pathophysiology linked to perturbations in fructose and mannose metabolism, diagnostic tools, and treatment options of the diseases.

It is a very rare disease (incidence 1 in 60,000) and the diagnosis is often missed, leading to poor prognosis.
