MeSH Heading: Substrate Cycling
Tree Number(s): G02.111.833; G03.295.835
Unique ID: D015219
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D015219
Annotation: restricted to enzyme activity; almost never IM; coord NIM with specific enzyme (IM)
Scope Note: A set of opposing, nonequilibrium reactions catalyzed by different enzymes which act simultaneously, with at least one of the reactions driven by ATP hydrolysis. The results of the cycle are that ATP energy is depleted, heat is produced and no net substrate-to-product conversion is achieved. Examples of substrate cycling are cycling of gluconeogenesis and glycolysis pathways and cycling of the triglycerides and fatty acid pathways. Rates of substrate cycling may be increased many-fold in association with hypermetabolic states resulting from severe burns, cold exposure, hyperthyroidism, or acute exercise.
