Alternate methods Flashcards
First stage of protein catabolism is
deamination
fatty acids can enter Krebs as ____
acetyl CoA
When G3P and DHAP is converted into glucose
Gluconeogenesis
Fatty acids are degraded in the ___ through the ____ pathway
mitochondrial matrix/beta oxidation
In the beta oxidation pathway, _____ beak down Fatty acid chains into chunks
multiple enzymes
these chunks are later incorporated in ____ stages of cellular respiration
later
Each time the fatty acid chains are chopped, ________ is made
NADH/FADH2
main goal of fermentation is to
recycle NADH by oxidizing it
In humans and some bacteria, without oxygen we can produce _______ giving muscle pain
lactic acid
product of lactate fermentation
lactate
product of ethanol fermentation
CO2 + ethanol
in Lactate fermentation, NADH gives its electrons to ___ in the cytoplasm
pyruvate
Lactate is made in the ____ and sent to the _____
muscles/bloodstream
Lactate can be used by the liver to convert it back into
pyruvate (gluconeogenic)
extra oxygen is needed to catabolize lactate, this is called
oxygen debt
