日本政府は明治維新後、（17）いろいろと新しい政治を始めましたが、中央政府の主要な管理職をしめ、政治の主権を握っていたのは倒幕に活躍した薩摩や長州藩の出身の人々だけでした。そこで、新政府に不満を持つ者、特に他の藩出身の元武士だった人々が中心になって政府に反対をするようになりました。しかし、昔とは違い、武力を使わず言論を使って攻撃しました。その中心となったのが板垣退助です。板垣は、政府だけに政治の力を与えるのではなく、国民の代表者が集まって議会を開き、人々の権利や自由を守るべきだと説き、全国各地で演説会を開きながら自分の意見に賛成し支持する人を増やしていきました。1881年、日本で初めての政党、自由党が作られ、板垣がその初代の党首になり、政府に圧力をかけるようになりました。

What major role does it play in nitrogen metabolism?  (1 pt.) This article talks about ATP control of glycolysis. Give the name of one enzyme in the citric acid cycle that is controlled by ATP or ADP/AMP levels.  (1 pt.) “Increased nervous system activity requires increased energy metabolism in neurons. The conventional view is that neuronal energy metabolism is fuelled by glucose oxidation (Chih et al. 2001). The action potentials of neuron activity result in Na+ entry and K+ efflux which activates Na+-K+ -ATPase in the neuronal plasma membrane; this ATPase pump activity in turn leads to decreased ATP, increased ADP, increased Pi, and increased AMP, standard activators of glycolysis, the TCA cycle and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. ATP synthesis will increase via these energetic pathways with a concomitant utilization of intracellular glucose that lowers glucose, leading to…” Acetyl CoA and Glu can react to form N-acetyl Glu, which is a potent activator of the enzyme glutamate dehydrogenase. Briefly explain why this compound is well suited to regulate the activity of this enzyme?  (2 pts.)
