krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorlaion Flashcards
what enzymes converts pyruvate into acetyl coA
pyruvate dehydrogenase.
how does pyruvate enter the kreb cycle
acetyl COA
overall reaction of pyruvate dehydrogenase
pyruvate (3C) +CoA +NAD+ -> Acetyl CoA +NADH + H+
Pyruvate is transported from where to where
cytoplasm across mitochondrial membrane
PDH has how many subuints
5
PDH relies on what vitamine
B1
WHy does PDH rely on Vitamin B1
cofactors of PHD rely on it
why is the converstion of pyruvate to Actyle CoA irreversible. how is it made irrerverible
to drive the reaction in one direction
loss on CO2
What can PDH deficiency lead to
lactic acidosis
where does the kreb cycle occur
mitochondrial matrix
in the kreb cycle was what actyle get converted to
2CO2
kreb cycle is oxidative what cofactors does it reduce
NAD+ FAD
What energy does the kreb cycle make
GTP
How many kreb cycles for each glucose
2 as get two pyruvates
what steps of the kreb cycles are regulated
irreversible steps, steps where co2 lost
