What is subtrate level phosphorylation?

Answer 1

Oxidation of G3P occurs by the removal of hydrogen atoms are picked up by NAD+, and NADH+H+ results. Later the NADH will pass on electrons to the electron transport chain. Oxidation of G3P and subsequent substrtes result in four high energy phosphate groups and these are used to synthesize four ATP. So basically substrate-level ATP synthesis is when an enzyme passes a high-energy phosphate to ADP and ATP results.

Answer 2

Glycolysis, where ADP plus phosphate form ATP. Citric Acid Cycle also has substrate phosphorylation when GDP+Pi forms GTP, which by simple conversion forms ATP.

Answer 3

Just the net gain of ATP that happens during glycolysis and the Krebs cycle. As opposed to oxidative phosphorylation happening during processes along the electron transfer chain.

Answer 4

I believe it occurs in the cytoplasm of mitochondria or chloroplasts.

Answer 5

Production of ATP by transferring phosphates directly from metabolic products to ADP

Answer 6

Substrate-level phosphorylation is when during glycolysis and the Kreb's Cycle an addition of a free phosphate to ADP to form ATP by direct donation.

Answer 7

Enzymes preform this phosphorilation in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. ADP has one phosphate group attached to it and becomes, by phosphorilation, ATP.

Answer 8

In the sense that substrate level phosphorylation takes place in both these metabolic processes.

Answer 9

Substrate-level phosphorylation is a chemical reaction. The chemical reaction may result in the products ATP or GTP. The resulting product is dependent on the chemicals involved.
