Breaking down the acetyl CoA and having the NADH + H+ and the FADH2 to go to the ETC with electrons is the goal of the
krebs cycle
In order for pyruvate to move into the mitochondrial matrix to be broken down/oxidized.. What molecule has to be present?
Oxygen
In order for pyruvate to move into the mitochondrial matrix to be broken down/oxidized.. What molecule has to be present?
Oxygen
Pyruvate has to get oxidized… what molecule does that
NAD+
What is the name of the step prior to Kebs cycle/citric acid cycle
Link reaction/transition step
What is the product of the transition step
Acetyl Coenzyme A (CoA)
How many acetyl coA molecules will go into Krebs Cycle after transition step (This process is happening twice, once for every pyruvate molecule or said differently, twice for every glucose molecule)
1
Another name for Pyruvate?
Pyruvic acid
2 Acetyl CoA interacts with what molecule when it enters the Krebs Cycle?
Oxaloacetate
When Acetyl CoA interacts with Oxaloacetate a byproduct is produced that can and goes back to link reaction. What is this molecule?
CoA
Another name for the Krebs Cycle is..?
Citric Acid Cycle
What molecules do we get to help rearrange the Oxaloacetate? Both are oxidizing agents.
NAD+ and FAD
What is the energy that is produced in the Krebs Cycle?
2 ATP
After electrons are obtained by NADH + H+ and FADH2 in the Krebs Cycle, where do they go?
etc
etc is the
electron transport chain
How many ATP is made with every FADH2 molecule?
2
How many ATP is made with every NADH + H+ molecule?
3
What are the names of the mobile proteins used in the ETC?
Cyt C (Cytochrome C) and Q (Coenzyme Q)
how many proton pumps (integral proteins) are in the etc?
3
Where do the protons/ Hydrogen ions collect?
The intermembrane space
What is the goal of the ETC (daily question answer)
to make an H+/proton gradient
Total CO2 of link reaction and krebs cycle
6 CO2
Protons pass through ATP synthase (enzyme) to make ATP in
Chemiosmosis
