Catabolism starch

Besides water oxidation, endogenous substrate (such as starch) catabolism can al so generate reductants for the algal photosynthetic electron transport chain at the... 

Pullulanase activity in a Klebsiella species, and which is of course an enzyme of starch catabolism, has been shown to be associated with the outer membrane of the cells. ... 

Suppose we start with a starch-rich meal, say one containing a lot of pasta or bread. The digestion of starches begins in the mouth. Saliva contains an enzyme, salivary amylase (aka ptyalin), which catalyzes the conversion of starch to simple sugars such as glucose. This process is completed in the small intestine under the influence of other enzymes in the amylase class. This completes the first phase of carbohydrate catabolism the conversion of complex, polymeric carbohydrates (e.g., starches) to their simple monomeric units, the sugars. 

The Cost of Storing Glucose as Starch Write the sequence of steps and the net reaction required to calculate the cost, in ATP molecules, of converting a molecule of cytosolic glucose 6-phosphate to starch and back to glucose 6-phosphate. What fraction of the maximum number of ATP molecules available from complete catabolism of glucose 6-phosphate to C02 and H20 does this cost represent ... 

The net yield is three ATPs for each glucose catabolized when the substrate is storage glycogen or starch. These are...
