TCA cycle Flashcards
what is the main goal of TCA cycle?
to produce NADH and FADH2
what is the rate limiting enzyme of TCA cycle?
isocitrate dehydrogenase
what are the steps of the TCA cycle?
- acetyl - CoA
- citrate
- isocitrate
- alpha ketoglutarate
- succinyl- CoA
- succinate
- fumarate
- malate
- oxaloactetate
what will activate the TCA cycle?
ADP
what will inhibit the TCA cycle?
ATP
NADH
FADH2
what does succinate dehydrogenase produce?
