Lecture 10.27.14 (Exam #3) Flashcards
If there is oxygen present then pyruvate is sent to_____
citric acid cycle
The outer membrane of the mitochondria is_____
very purous
The inner membrane of the mitochondria is_____
tightly sealed and needs transporters to get molecule across
Inner membrane space
space between the inner and outer membrane
Matrix
space inside the inner membrane
What enzyme moves PA from the inner membrane space to the matrix?
pyruvate translocase
What also happens when PA is moved into the matrix?
H+ is moved into the inner membrane space
Antiport
One molecule in while another molecule is sent out
ex.PA and OH-
PA is converted to Acetyl CoA and CO2 by which enzyme?
Pyruvate decarboxylase complex
CoA
a mobile carrier of carbons
enzyme complex
group of enzymes, proteins, cofactors that are all coupled together
How many enzymes are apart of PDH?
5
What are the jobs of the 5 enzymes of PDH?
3 used for cataylsis
2 regulate later
3 catalytic enzymes of PDH?
pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1) acetyl transferase (E2) dehydrogenase (E3)
Pyruvate dehydrogenase does what and what is its PG?
