Q

Nocardia loves the TCA cycle because

A
  1. complete oxidation of glucose ( big bang for buck)
  2. critical intermediates* for amino acids and lips (transition step)
  3. More reduced equivalents for respiration

Q

why dont other species care as much about the TCA cycle?

A

They have Fermentation.
Use this pathway for making proteins not for
maximum reducing equivalents

Q

in respiration, oxidative phosphorylation has two parts…

A
  1. electron transport chain
    - generated proton motive force (and NADH+ and FAD)
  2. ATP synthase
    - use proton gradient from (PMF) to synthesize ATP
