Koc - Ox Phos Flashcards
What are electron carriers for Complex I and Complex II?
FMN , FAD
What is the only complex in OxPhos not mitochondrial coded?
Complex II
Cytochromes
One elctron carriers
Iron coordinating rings
Mitochondrial coded
Iron-Sulfur Clusters
Non mobile electron intermediate carriers within the Complexes
sort of like buckets for the fire brigade to pass water
Ubiquinone or “CoenzymeQ” , “CoQ10”
Mobile electron carrier
Freely diffusible within the lipid bilayer
Complex II - Complex III
Rieske Iron Sulfure Protein
Non-heme iron protein in complex III
Complex I
NADH:Ubiquinone Oxidoreductase
Transfer two electrons from NADH to Ubiquinone
Four protons sent to intermembrane space
Complex II
Succinate Dehydrogenase
Same enzyme form Kreb’s cycle (Succinate - Fumarate)
Electrons from FADH2,, sent to Ubiquinone
Complex III
Ubquinone:Cytochrome C Oxidoreductase
QH2 gives two electrons to Cytochrom C
Four Protons pumped
When does Cytochrome begin acting as mobile transport in ETC?
After III, Cytochrome C
Cytochrome C
Mobile electron carrier
Moves through intermembrane space
Heme protein
Carry 1 electron
Complex IV
Cytochrome Oxidase
O2 reduced to 2H2O
Four protons transported to intermembrane space
Protons per molecule NADH?
What complexes does this pass flow through?
10 H+
Complex I - Complex IV
Protones per molecule FADH2
What complexes does this pass through?
6 protons
Complex II - Complex IV
(skips complex I)
What is there “3-5” ATP made from the NADH from glycolysis?
The NADH must be transported from the cytoplasm, and one of these methods inserts it at Complex II, so less protons are pumped at the end.
Malate-Aspartate Shuttle
Full complex chain
2.5 ATP / NADPH
(2x NADPH from glycolysis, 5 ATP total)
