Hey #chemtwitter and #biochemtwitter I need some input from you for a project expansion in an area out off my expertise: What kind of enzymes (cleaving molecular bonds) are ubiquitous in reasonable concentraion in different plant leaves?

If you have fasted, engaged in strenuous exercise, are on insulin therapy, then #alcohol can cause a dip in blood glucose. As #LiquorShops open, understand the #science, junk caustic #morality, replenish your #alcohol stock, and drink responsibly! #BiochemTwitter #Lockdown2 9/9

Hypogycemia - low blood glucose causes agitation, impaired judgment, and combativeness. Remember that heavy drinker which showed these once in a while? These behavioral signs are classically related to #alcohol. #BiochemTwitter 8/

So, if you are drinking without adequately eating food, the #alcohol also takes away things that can make glucose in your body - leading to low blood glucose - hypoglycemia. This will not occur if one is eating properly though. #BiochemTwitter 7/

Gluconeogenesis uses largely 5 things to make glucose *when* we are fasting. So, remember the TWO molecules that got used up as a result of increased #alcohol breakdown? Pyruvate & Oxaloacetate - 2 of the 5 things body uses to make glucose. #BiochemTwitter 6/

Ever wonder how your blood #glucose is maintained at 4 am when you are sleeping after having dinner at 9 pm? One, we have stored some in liver (as glycogen) Second, a process called gluco'neo'genesis. #BiochemTwitter #alcohol 5/

Back to #alcohol and blood #glucose story. So the two reactions of #alcohol break down increases a high energy compound (NADH). This rise increases two reactions, using up 2 important molecules called pyruvate & oxaloacetate (don't worry I'll give context). #BiochemTwitter

Slight aside: drug disulfiram, used to treat chronic alcoholism, inhibits aldehyde DH, increases acetaldehyde levels - flushing, nausea, increased heart beating, all aimed at making the experience distasteful. #BiochemTwitter #alcohol 3/

To know that, let us know how #alcohol is broken down in the body. Alcohol, which is ethanol, is broken by 2 important liver enzymes. 1st - alcohol dehydrogenase (makes acetaldehyde) 2nd - aldehyde dehydrogenase (makes acetate). #BiochemTwitter 2/

Can drinking #alcohol bring your blood glucose level down? So #LiquorShops are set to open tomorrow in many parts of the country, and it has caused some stir - both for genuine and frivolous concerns. But let's talk about alcohol & blood glucose. #BiochemTwitter 1/

Working on ribonucleotide reductase is always humbling, and mere assay development has been a decades-long pursuit (see article below). #chemtwitter and #biochemtwitter what are your hardest enzymes to assay?? pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
