Bioenergetics Flashcards
1
Q
Barbiturates
A
inhibit e- transport via Complex 1 from Fe-S to CoQ
2
Q
Antimycin A, Dimercapral
A
inhibit respiratory chain at complex 3
3
Q
H2S, CO, CN-
A
inhibit Complex 4
4
Q
Malonate
A
competitive inhibitor of Complex 2
5
Q
Oligomycin
A
inhibits oxidation and phosphorylation by blocking the proton flow through ATP synthase
6
Q
Atractyloside
A
inhibit oxidative phosphorylation by inhibiting the ADP/ATP transporter
7
Q
Uncouplers
A
- dissociate oxidation from phosphorylation in the respiratory chain ⇒ uncontrolled respiration since the rate is no longer limited by ADP or Pi concentration
8
Q
Cyanide
A
blocks the function of cytochrome C oxidase
inhibit oxidative phosphorylation
