22
Q

Where does the ETC get the energy necessary to generate ATP?

A

Energy is extracted from the oxidation of NADH and FADH2 from the Krebs Cycle

23
Q

How many ATP does NADH produce?

A

3 ATP

24
Q

How many ATP does FADH2 produce?

A

2 ATP

25
Q

Which Complex in the ETC produces water?

A

Complex IV

26
Q

Which redox-active prosthetic group, along with the aid of FeS, transfers the electron from NADH to CoQ?

A

FMV

Flavinmononucleotide

27
Q

What is the strong electron donor and exceptor in the ETC that takes energy from Complex 1 and 2?

A

CoQ

28
Q

Why is CoQ a Ubiquinol?

A

strong electron donor/acceptor that can easily pass molecules

29
Q

Where are electrons reconfigured and repackaged in the ETC?

A

Complex III

30
Q

Why does Complex III rearrange electrons brought by CoQ?

A

Because NADH and FADH2 are different molecules

31
Q

Which molecule is loosely bound to the outer surface of the inner membrane?

A

Cytochrome C

32
Q

What does CytC bind to?

A

CytC1 & CytC Oxidase

33
Q

Which electron carrier has a ligand with a free heme iron that can react directly with oxygen?

A

Cytochrome a + a3

34
Q

Which complex in ETC is succinate-coenzyme Q reductase?

A

Complex II

35
Q

Which complex in ETC uses NADH dehydrogenase?

A

Complex !

36
Q

Which complex in the ETC uses CytC Oxidase?

A

Complex III

37
Q

What does Complex III contain?

A

2 CytB, 1 CytC1, and one [2Fe-2S] cluster

38
Q

Which Kreb Cycle enzyme is used in the ETC?

A

Succinate Dehydrogenase

39
Q

Where is Succinate Dehydrogenase used?

A

Complex II

40
Q

Where does Oxidate Phosphorylation occur in the ETC?

A

Complex V

41
Q

What is Peter Mitchell’s chemiosmotic hypothesis?

A

free energy from the transfer of electrons is conserved by the pumping pf H+ from the mitochondrial matrix pass the intermembrane to the inner membrane space and this causes an electrochemical gradient. The build up of energy leads to the production of ATP

42
Q

Which two molecules in the ETC don’t have transporters?

A

NADH and FADH2

43
Q

Which shuttle forms mitostotic NADH by the respiratory chain to produce 3 ATP by oxidative phosphorilation?

A

Malate-Asparate Shuttle

44
Q

What are the 2 ways to NADH and FADH can get through the inner mitochondrial membrane?
How many ATP are produced?

A

1) Reduce NADH to FADH to yield 2 ATP

2) Use the Malate-Aspartate shuttle (not transporter) to yield 3 ATP

45
Q

List the 4 step process of reducing NADH to FADH

A

1) Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate to 3 Phosphoglyceroll using the enzyme 3-phosphoglycerol dehydrogenase
2) NADH + H in; NAD+ out\

3) inside the inner mitochondrial membrane,
FAD picks up the H+ from 3-Phosphoglycerol using the enzyme Flavoprotein Dehydroganase

4) FADH moves into the ETC

46
Q

What 2 transporters are used in the inner mitochondrial membrane to keep NADH from reducing so it produces 3 ATP?

A

Malate- alpha ketogluterate transporter

Glutamate-Aspartate transporter

47
Q

How do FCCP and DNP interfere with Oxidative Phosphorylation?

A

Allows free diffusion which prevents OxPhos because e- wont build up to reach Complex 5.+

48
Q

What type of acids are FCCP and DNP

A

lipophilic weak

49
Q

Where does Oligomycin bind?

A

direclty binds to the ATP synthetase stalk (Complex 5)

50
Q

How does Oligomycin interfere with Oxidative Phosphorylation?

A

Blocks H+ channel and prevents reentry of the protons into the mitochondrial matrix

51
Q

Which medicine works like “standing on a garden hose” to block H+ from passing through complex 5

A

Oligomycin

52
Q

What creates a protein leak in the inner mitochondrial matrix?

A

UCP (uncoupling proteins)

53
Q

What creates stored energy through the uncoupling of Ox Phos?

A

UCPs
