Draw the structure of the fatty acid listed above as a fatty acyl-CoA molecule (14:0-tetradecano

For the following questions, answer them fully and show all work (if applicable). For all questions, please show your work on a separate piece of paper.

Question 1
You are analyzing the muscle cells of a newly discovered mammalian species. The following condition were found to be different from the general mammalian system:
The c rotor ring of the ATP Synthase has 15 c subunits.

In each of the following parts, determine the TOTAL number of ATP that is created from the following starting molecules. Whenever possible, choose the shuttle pathway that will result in the greatest number of ATP synthesized:

Part A : 18-carbon fully saturated fatty acyl-CoA molecule in the cytosol.

Part B : 1 dihydroxyacetone phosphate molecule in the cytosol.
Question 2 : Answer each part of the question using the following fatty acid:

14:0-Tetradecanoic acid

Draw the structure of the fatty acid listed above as a fatty acyl-CoA molecule (14:0-tetradecanoyl coA). You will have to look up the structure of conenzyme A and draw it entirely out. (2 pt)

Draw the arrow pushing mechanism for the 1st step β-oxidation (the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase step) in the fourth cycle of oxidation for the fatty acyl-CoA above. Be sure to draw out structures completely. Use the structure of a glutamate at pH 6 for the base, HOH as an acid, and the entire structure of FADH2 during the mechanism. (hint: pay attention to the number of carbons in the chains now that you are in the 4th cycle and you’ll have to look up the structure for FADH2). (3 pts)
Tabulate the total number of ATP yield from the complete oxidation of the fatty acyl-CoA above. For this question ONLY, assume 2.5 ATP/NADH and 1.5 ATP/FADH2. GTP is chemically equivalent to ATP. (hint: see Table 17-1 as an example of a good table layout to use). (2 pts)
