Electron transport chain
Electron flow form NADH and FADH2 to O2
FMN
Accepts electrons from NADH in complex 1
Iron sulfur protein
Facilitates flow from FMN to coenzyme Q
Coenzyme Q
Lipid soluble electron carrier
Cytochrome C
Donates electrons to complex IV
Q cycle
Funnels electrons from a 2 electron carrier to 1 electron
Complex 1
NADH Q oxidoreductase
Complex 2
Succinate Q reductase
Complex 3
Q cyctochrome C oxidoreductase
Complex 4
Cytochrome C oxidase
Ubiquinone
Coenzyme Q
Protein motive force
Composed of a chemical and charge gradient
Electron transport chain
Generates proton gradient
Glycerol 3 phosphate shuttle
Converts cytoplasmic NADH to mitochondrial FADH2
Malate aspartate shuttle
Converts cytoplasmic NADH to mitochondrial NADH
More atp with NADH better way
Uncoupling protein
Results in heat instead of ATP
C ring
Proton Chanel
What is the role of proton gradient
Released ATP from synthase
