Krebs cycle

Where does the krebs cycle take place?

In the mitochondrial matrix

Is ATP made in the krebs cycle

ATP isnt directly made in the kreb’s cycle but the GTP produced converts into ATP

What is the preparatory step?

Pyruvate converts into acetyl CoA by NAD→ NADH+

Step 1

acetyl CoA converts into citrate

What enzyme converts acetyl coa into citrate

citrate synthase

Step 2

citrate converts into isocitrate

What enzyme converts citrate into isocitrate

acinotase

Step 3

isocitrate converts into alpha- ketoglutarate

What enzyme is used at step 3

isocitrate dehydrogenase

What is produced at step 3

NAD+ → NADH

Step 4

alpha-ketoglutarate converts into succinyl CoA

What enzyme is used at step 4

alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase

What is produced at step 4

NAD+ → NADH

Step 5

succinyl CoA converts into succinate

What enzyme is used for step 5

succinyl coa synthase

Step 6

succinate converts into fumarate

What enzyme is used for step 6

succinate dehydrogenase

step 7

fumarate converts into malate

What enzyme is used as step 7

fumarase

Step 8

malate converts into oxaloacetate

what enzyme is used for step 8

malate dehydrogenase

What are the end products of krebs cycle
