The predominant forms of actin inside a cell are ATP–G-actin and ADP–F-actin. Explain how the interconversion of the nucleotide state is coupled to the assembly and disassembly of actin subunits.
Intramitochondrial ATP concentrations are about 5 mM, and phosphate
concentration is about 10 mM. If ADP is five times more abundant than
AMP, calculate the molar concentrations of ADP and AMP at an energy
charge of 0.85. Calculate AG for ATP hydrolysis at 37 °C under these condi-
tions. The energy charge is the concentration of ATP plus half the concen-
tration of ADP divided by the total adenine nucleotide concentration:
[ATP] + 1/2[ADP]
[ATP] + [ADP] + [AMP]
What is the smallest number of molecules of ATP and GTP consumed in the synthesis of a 200- residue protein, starting from amino acids? Assume that the hydrolysis of PP i is equivalent to the hydrolysis of ATP for this calculation.
