_____ may be converted to fructose-6-phosphate via the enzyme fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase

Fructose is converted into _____ by the enzyme fructokinase

HMP shunt activity is primarily found in the _____ glands, liver, lactating mammary glands (females), and RBCs

Glycogen phosphorylase is regulated via negative feedback by _____, insulin, and glucose-6-phosphate

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase is allosterically activated by _____ and inhibited by AMP and fructose-2,6-bisphosphate.

Glucose is converted to _____ by the enzyme glucokinase in the liver and beta cells of the pancreas

Tarui disease presents similar to McArdle disease with additional _____ and hyperuricemia

Increased insulin (fed) leads to decreased cAMP and protein kinase A, thus _____ activity of FBPase-2 and increasing activity of PFK-2

Galactose-1-phosphate is ultimately converted to _____ via the enzyme Gal 1-P uridyltransferase
