citric acid cycle Flashcards
what are the reactants and products of the TCA
pyruvate+ CoA + NAD+= acetyl co a + co2 + nadh
what vitamin does coa come from
b5 pantothenate
what bond does coA have
thioester high energy bond
wht does CoA do
carrier of acyl gps
what cofactors does PDH use
TPP
CoAsh
Lipoic Acid
FAD
NAD
the coons like fighting niggas
describe TPP location and function
- catalytic
- bound to E1
- decarboxylates pyruv
describe lipoic acid and its loc and func.
- catalytic
- inked to lys on e2 (lipoamide)
- ## accepts hydroxyethyl carbanion from tpp
coenzyme A
stochiometric
- substrate for E2
- accepts aceytl group from lipoamide
FAD flavin
- bound to E3
- reduced by lipoamide
NAD+ catalutic
substrate for E3
reduced by FADH@
Q: What metabolic enzyme does arsenite primarily inhibit?
inhibits pyruvate
what is the first enzyme of tca
citrate synthase
- add acetyl group to oxalocacetate to make citrate
why is succinyl coa synthetase important
- uses SLP
- nucleoside triphosphate is made - atp in most prok
- gtp in euk
- driven by hydrolysis of CoA ester
- inolves phosphohistidine
succinate DH is competitively inhibited why what
malonate making it poison
what is the only enzyme bound of TCA
succinate DH bc its complex 2 of the ETC
what happens during succinate dh
- hydride transfer and oxidation with fad
- fad reduced
