ETC + Oxidative Flashcards
ETC utilizes what high energy molecules from where
FADH2 - TCA
NADH - glycolysis and TCA
Goal of Malate shuttle
Get NADH from cytosol to mitochondria
Basics of Malate shuttle
1: H on NADH to OAA creating NAD+/ malate
2: malate is shuttled through
3: turned back into NADH by removing H from OAA
What happens to OAA in mitochondria
Turned to aspartate by glut —->α ketogluterate
Aspartate in mitochondria does what
Crosses back to cytosol and turns into OAA
*α ketoglutarate also crosses back to cytosol to help aspartate turn back to OAA
Glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase is present in
Cytosol and mitochondrial membrane
End goal of glyceraol 3 phosphate shuttle
FAD to FADH2
Downside of glyceraol 3 phosphate shuttle
You’re making FADH2 which will eventually make less ATP than NADH2
Complex 1 aka
NADH dehydrogenase
Which complex oxidizes NADH
I
Where do electrons from NADH from NADH dehydrogenase go
Coenzyme Q
What does CoQ do
Shuttles electrons to complex III, skipping complex II
Complex I key intermediates
Flavin mononucleotide (FMN) B2 -riboflavin
Iron sulfur compounds (FeS)
Donate e- to CoQ through Fe-S clusters
Complex II aka
Succinate dehydrogenase - TCA cycle enzyme
Overall goal of complex II
Turns succinate —> fumarate
Which makes FADH2
And then transports FADH2 electrons —> CoQ
Complex III aka
Cytochrome bc1
What does cytochrome Bc1 do
Takes electrons from CoQ and transfers them to cytochrome C
2 key differences in NADH dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase
ND: pumps H+ And it utilizes NADH2
SD: doesn’t pump and it utilzes FADH2
Which complexes shuttle H+ and how much do they shuttle
I = 4H+
III = 2H+
IV = 4H+
What does cytochrome c do
Shuffles e- from III to IV
Complex IV aka
Cytochrome c oxidase
Complex IV contains
Copper
Complex IV does what
Combines all the e- that have been going down the chain with O2 to make water
Sub level phosphorylation occurs with an
Enzyme
Complex V aka
ATP synthase
_ ATP generated from NADH
_ ATP generated from FADH2
