ATP-ETS Flashcards
3 types of catabolic reactions in cellular respiration
Nutrient catabolism
Citrate cycle
Ox phos
Net energy gain in glycolysis
2 ATP
2 NADH
For every glucose
Net energy gain in B oxidation
1 FADH2
1 NADH
for every 2 C
Net energy gain in citrate cycle
1 FADH2
3 NADH
1 ATP
for every turn of the cycle
Net ATP in the ETS-Ox phos
1 NADH = 2.5 ATP
1 FADH2 = 1.5 ATP
B oxidation
- Remove 2 C units as acetyl CoA
- Acetyl CoA enters CC
- Resulting NADH and FADH2 enter the ETS
Major molecules of CC
Citrate, isocitrate, aKG, succinyl CoA, succinate, fumarate, malate, oxaloacetate
Can I Keep Selling Sex For Drugs Officer?
Metabolic fuels that can enter the CC
AA, glucose, ketones, fatty acids
Do AA have to be turned in to acetyl CoA before entering the cycle?
No, they can enter at different points in the cycle, but they can turn into acetyl CoA if they want.
Irreversible reactions in the CC
Citrate synthase - no regulators indirect effector (high [NADH] = lowers [OAA and acetyl CoA]
Isocitrate DH - inhibitors - ATP and NADH
aKGDH - inhibitors - ATP/GTP, NADH
What reactions produce NADH?
Isocitrate DH, aKGDH, malate DH
Electron transport system
Transfer e- by NADH or FADH2 to reduce O2 to H2O
= proton gradient
Ox phos
Generation of ATP by ATP synthase with proton gradient from ETS
Where does ox phos occur?
IMM
Complex I
NADH DH and proton pump
NADH donates hydride ions for proton pumping
CoQ binds complex I and accepts e- donated by NADH hydride
