    Why do I feel like the more science you know, the more you realize the less you know.

      It's a bit like if you inflate a balloon, the volume represents your knowledge, the surface area represents the things your discover that you don't know. I guess it's just that you first have to understand the basic concepts of something to realize how much there is to know about it and until you do, all of that doesn't exist to you.

    Thank you for making FREE videos for PREMED students. Many intelligent students can't afford MCAT prep packages and even basic books! So you are doing a huge favor to them by making detailed videos on MCAT topics. All of the poor students are future doctors and they will be donating regularly to this amazing channel ❤ I wish a free medical school will be established one day just like Khan Academy, professional, kind and generous, in which people can study doctor of medicine for free.✨

    Great video, however one simple mistake:
    Kinases don't "dephosphorylate" molecules under physiological conditions. Enzymes for dephosphorylation reactions are called "phosphatases".
    The reason why the "pyruvate kinase" is called kinase is that while these metabolic reactions were being discovered, scientists tried out these reactions in vitro to see what the enzymes do and they put too much pyruvate and so turned the reaction balance in favour of phospoenolpyruvate (PEP) as product, so they thought, the enzyme phosphorylated pyruvate.
    But in reality, under physiological concentrations, the enzyme actually "dephosphorylates" PEP.

    Triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) is a perfect enzyme that catalyzes dihydrooxyacetone phosphate into 3-phosphoglyceric acid. There is an enol middle metabolite between these two steps. But this enol middle metabolite is easy to release phosphate group and become to malonaldehyde in a neutral cellular environment. The significance of TPI enzyme lies in that it has approximately 10 aa residues forming a loop that is designed to cover the enol middle metabolite preventing its release. In the end, as long as 3-phosphoglyceric acid is produced, this loop or cover will leave and let 3-phosphoglyceric acid go and do next reaction into 1,3- diphosphoglyceric acid.
