My professor expects me to understand this:
"Metabolism of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate and regulation of the pathway: The formation of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate is catalyzed by phosphofructokinase-2 and its breakdown is catalyzed by fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase. Phosphofructokinase-2 is not an enzyme of the glycolytic pathway. Although phosphofructokinase-2 uses fructose-6-phosphate from the glycolytic pathway, the product of this kinase reaction is strictly a regulator of phosphofructokinase-1 and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase. The amount of fructose-6-phosphate removed from the glycolytic pathway to produce fructose-2,6-bisphosphate is inconsequential."
I think the part that really strikes me is the part that says, "...is inconsequential." That I understand.

I'll admit it. I did not even try to read that whole paragraph. I just went back and found the "...is inconsequential" part. You are such a little smarty pants. Good luck and Godspeed. Ask Boyd about Godspeed. He also knows how to say it in french.
I remember memorizing all of that in biochem . . . somehow most of it has already faded away, maybe that's why they make you take it again in med school. ;)
uhhh yeah, you lost me there....
That looks like so much fun...NOT:) But I have to admit that I am a nerd and little sad that I'm not starting school again. Just remember that all these ridiculous memorizations will take you one step closer to being a fabulous doctor.
this reminds me of the dating chart in our apartment. what happened to that thing?
I'm with you... Inconsequential. Also, that link was awesome. It's nice to know I hadn't forgotten all those parts of the brain I memorized so long ago! Miss you. CALL ME.
Nice movie reference... you'll ace your class for sure!
don't you just love pinky and the brain? that show was the best!
Where do you come up with this stuff? Can you please write my blog posts, yours are way better, even when you write things I don't understand.
yuck and good luck :)if anyone is smart enough to understand that you are!
