kreb cycle Flashcards
where does the kreb cycle take place
mitochondrial matrix
what is the main purpose of the Kreb cycle
to produce CO2 and ATP One OTHER purpose of the Krebs cycle is to extract the maximum number of electrons from acetyl CoA, and send them to the electron transport chain to drive proton pumping
which enzymic substrates control the kreb cycle
controlled by the availibility of [NAD+]; [oxaloacetate]; [acetyl CoA]; [ADP]
what are the steps in the Kreb cycle?
citrate - citrate
is - isocitrate
krebs- ketoglutarate
starting- succinyl coa
substrate- succinate
for- fumarate
making malate
oxaloacetate- oxaloacetate
what is the main purpose of the Kreb cycle?
to produce CO2 and ATP One OTHER purpose of the Krebs cycle is to extract the maximum number of electrons from acetyl CoA, and send them to the electron transport chain to drive proton pumping
what are the main electron carriers in the kreb cycle
NaDH2 and FADH
- Which of the citric acid cycle intermediates are considered to be directly gluconeogenic
OXALOACETATE
