Arsenate is structurally and chemically similar to inorganic phosphate (Pi), and many enzymes that require phosphate will also use arsenate. Organic compounds of arsenate are less stable than analogous phosphate compounds, however. For example, acyl arsenates decompose rapidly by hydrolysis: On the other hand, acyl phosphates, such as 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate, are more stable and undergo further enzyme-catalyzed transformation in cells. 1) Predict the effect on the net reaction catalyzed by glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase if phosphate were replaced by arsenate.
A) The 1-arseno, 3-phosphoglycerate intermediate would decompose non- enzymatically, so no ATP would be formed in the phosphoglycerate kinase reaction.
B) Gluconeogenesis would be inhibited by arsenate because glyceraldehyde 3- L phosphate dehydrogenase is also an enzyme in that pathway.
C) The 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate intermediate would decompose non-enzymatically, so no NADH would be formed in the reaction.
D) There would be no net conversion of ADP to ATP from the conversion of glucose to pyruvate during glycolysis.
E) By substituting for phosphate in this reaction, the arsenate-containing compounds would inhibit several downstream reactions.
B) What would be the consequence to an organism if arsenate were substituted for phosphate? Arsenate is very toxic to most organisms. Explain why with special consideration of phosphoglycerate mutase?

Is a measure of the resistance to flow. a high liquid has a high resistance to flow and flows slowly. the ancients thought everything in the world was made of 4 we now know that there are 94 naturally occurring and scientists have created another 24 i am certain they will create even more. honey flows slowly because it has a high to flowing. a can be separated by physical means because it contains more than one pure substance and 2 pure substances are not chemically bonded to each other. a cannot be separated by physical means. all matter is made up of all elements are with the same number of protons. if it is just a single or many bonded together, if all of them have the same number of protons, it is an element. in a piece of pure iron metal, all the are joined together, that piece of iron metal is called elemental iron. a single of iron is called elemental iron. a mixture has differences from place to place. we might need a microscope to see them or they might be obvious to the unaided eye. there are surfaces separating it into different phases. a mixture is the same everywhere. it is uniform. there are no surfaces separating it into different phases. if different kinds of atoms (different elements) are bonded together by their electrons, it is called a there are physical means of to isolate the different pure substances in a mixture and there are chemical means of to isolate the different elements in a compound. 1. element 2. compound 3. mixture 4. heterogeneous 5. homogeneous 6. pure substance 7. atoms 8. separation 9. viscosity 10. resistance
