Citirc Acid Cycle, Glycolysis, ETC, and Diagrams Flashcards
Step one
-After the enzyme removes a proton from the CH3 group on acetyle CoA, the negatively charged CH2- forms a bond to a carbonyl carbon of oxaloacetate. -The subsequent loss by hydrolysis of the coenzyme A drive the reaction strongly forward.
Step two
An isomerization reaction, in which water is first removed and then added back, moves the hydroxyl group from one carbon atom to its neighbor
Step three
In the first of four oxidation steps in the cycle, the carbon carrying the hydroxyl group is converted to a carbonyl group. The immediate product is unstable, losing CO2 while still bound to the enzyme.
Step four
-The a-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex closely resembles the large enzyme complex that converts pyruvate to acetyl CoA. - It likewise catalyzes an oxidation that produces NADH, CO2, and a high-energy thioeter bond to coenzyme A(CoA)
Step five
-A phosphate molecule from solution displaces the CoA, forming a high-energy phosphate linkage to succinate. - This phosphate is then passed to GDP to form GTP in bacteria and ATP in plants and animals.
Step six
In the third oxidation step in the cycle, FAD accepts two hydrogen atoms from succinate.
Step seven
The addition of water to fumarate places a hydroxyl group next to a carbonyl carbon.
Step eight
In the last of four oxidation steps in the cycle, the carbon carrying the hydroxyl group is converted to a carbonyl group, regenerating the oxaloacetate needed for step one.
