entry/gateway to TCA Flashcards
(38 cards)
what enters the tca cycle first
pyruvate
what vitamin does CoA have
pantothenate B5
what is the role of CoA
carrier of acyl gps and it transfers acyl gps
is CoA a high energy bond
yes bc it has a thiol group
what are the cofactors of pdh
TPP, lipoic acid, coA, FAD, NAD+
where is TPP cofactor located
bound to E1
what is the function of TPP
decarboxylates pyruvate
where is lipoic acid located and the function
covalently linked to a Lys
accepts hydroxyethy;
what is the Location and function of coA
substrate for E2
accepts acetyl group from lipoamide
what is the location and function of FAD
bound to E3
reduced by lipoamide
what is the location and function of NAd+
substrate for E3
reduced by FADH2
what cofactors are catalytic
TPP and lipoic acid
what cofactors are stoichiometric
CoA, FAD, NAD
what is used to add the acetyl group to oxoloacetate to give citrate
the energy of the thioester
what is succinyl CoA
- nucleoside triphosphate - ATP in prok and GTP in euk
what drives synthesis of succinyl CoA
hydrolysis of CoA ester
what does the mechanism of Succin. CoA involve
phosphohistidine
what competitively inhibits succinate DH
malonate
what happens during rxn for succinate dh
hydride transfer + oxidation w/ FAD and its reduced to covalently attatch to the enzyme
what is the only membrane bound enzyme of TCA
succinate dh bc its complex 2 of the etc
where is succinate DH bound
to the inner mito membrane
fumarase is reversible why?
it is a lyase meaning its reversible q
mneominc for the tca
can i keep selling sex for money office
tca step 1
oxaloacetate to citrate w/ citrate synthase
