25
What is CoQ made of
A quinone with lipophilic chain
26
Semiquinone is
Site for generation of ROS A CoQ with an OH group (reduced form)
27
Heme A is found in
Cytochrome a and a3
28
Cytochromes contain
Heme and iron in the middle
29
What enzyme reduces O2 to H2O
Cytochrome C oxidase
30
What in the cytochrome C oxidase complex collects 4 H+ to reduce O2 to H2O
Cu2+
31
Rotenone is in
pesticides
32
Oligmocycin is a ____ inhibitor
Transmembrane
33
Dinitrophenol does what
Dissipates proton gradient
34
How does Cyanide inhibit complex IV
Binds to Fe in heme and prevents electrons from going to O2
35
Cyanide is released during
Metabolism by gut microbes of amygdalin
36
What is amygdalin present in
Almonds, cherries, apricots
37
Cyanide is in high concentrations in
Smoke from cyanide buildings
38
Atractyloside
Inhibits ANT which puts ADP in mitochondria and takes ATP out (1:1 ratio Reduces ADP
39
Oligomycin
Inhibits proton flow through F0 of ATP synthase STOPS oxygen consumptions without affecting complexes
40
Dinitrophenol
An uncoupler Dissipates proton gradient Increases permeability of membrane
41
Valinomycin
Facilitates K+ transfer across membrane Ionophore
42
Malonate
Competitive inhibitor of Complex II (succinate dehydrogenase) Binds to active site of complex II without reacting
43
The use of protons to phosphorylate ADP into ATP does what
Decreases proton gradient ETC pumps more protons, o2 is reduces to H2O
44
What happens after NADH donates electrons to ETC
NAD+ is regenerated and returns to TCA
45
What are proton ionophores
Lipid soluble compounds rapidly transport H+ from cytosol to inside mitochondria
46
Cold stimulates the release of
Norepinephrine from sympathetic nerve endings
47
How does brown fat thermogenesis work
Cold stimulates norepinephrine Lipase releases fatty acids for TCA Thermogenin (UCP1) is activated by FA and protons are brought into matric
48
End result of brown fat thermogenesis
Thermogenin stimulates ETC which increases NADH/FADH and produces more heat
49
Outer membrane of mitochondria contains
Voltage dependent anion channels
50
VDACs are formed by
Porins Voltage dependent anion chaneels Let ions diffuse
51
Conformation of ANT is regulated by
Cyclophilin D and Ca2+
52
Changing ANT to open pore is activated by
Ca2+ Depletion of adenine nucleotides ROS
53
Changing ANT to closed pore is done by
Proton gradient Cytosolic ATP Low cytosolic pH
54
What does an uncoupler do
Increases oxygen consumption of cells Releases heat, temperature raise
55
If an uncoupler (DNP) is added to oligomycin, what happens
O2 restores and resumes
56
What happens if cytochrome C leaves the mitochondria and is in cytoplasm?
Signals a cascade for apoptosis
57
What does DNP do to body
Increases heat, hyperthermia
58
A higher slope means
DNP, increased oxygen consumption
59
What does ANT do
Brings ADP into matrix Moves ATP out of matrix
60
What decreases oxygen
Oligomyocin Cyanide CO
