When pure reduced cytochrome c is added to carefully prepared mitochondria along with ADP, P, antimycin A, and oxygen, the cytochrome c becomes oxidized, and ATP is formed, with a P/o ratio approaching 1.0. (a) Indicate the probable flow of electrons in this system. (b) Why was antimycin A added? (c) What does this experiment tell you about the location of cou- pling sites for oxidative phosphorylation? (d) Write a balanced equation for the overall reaction (including cyt c oxidation and ATP synthesis).
You experiementally apply the compund antimyctin, which inhinits the functioning of complex III, cytochrome reductase, from participating in redox reactions. You follow this with the addition of 6 molecules of FADH2. How many total ATP molecules can be created using the number of protons that were pumped?
Freshly prepared mitochondria were incubated with β-hydroxybutyrate, oxidized cytochrome c, ADP, Pi, and cyanide. β-hydroxybutyrate is oxidized by an NAD+-dependent dehydrogenase. The experimenter measured the rate of oxidation of β-hydroxybutyrate andthe rate of formation of ATP.(a) Indicate the probable flow of electrons in this system.(b) How many moles of ATP would you expect to be formed per mole ofβ-hydroxybutyrate oxidized in this system?(c) Why is b-hydroxybutyrate added rather than NADH?(d) What is the function of the cyanide?(e) Write a balanced equation for the overall reaction occurring in thissystem (electron transport and ATP synthesis). (f) Calculate the net standard free energy change (ΔG°') in this system,using E'0 values from Table 14.1 and a ΔG°' value for ATP hydrolysisof -32.2 kJ/mol.
Per NADH consumed by Complex I, indicate the number for each, AS those reducing equivalents flow through the electron transport chain. In other words, if "XYZ" molecule gets reduced at one step and then re-oxidized at the next step, that would count as 1 XYZ reduced. Think Total not Net. a)Total # of Cytochrome C proteins reduced b)Total # of H+ pumped across membrane c)Total # of H2O produced
Which of the following statements concerning the complete oxidation of FADH2 in the electron transport chain is NOT true? a. In the final step, electrons from cytochrome c to O2 reducing it to H2O in complex IV, and four protons are transported from the intermembrane space to the matrix. b. In the first step, electrons from FADH2 are transferred in complex II to ubiquinone, which does not transport any proton across the inner mitochondrion membrane. c. In the second step, complex III transfers the electrons from ubiquinone to cytochrome c, and four protons are transported from the matrix to the intermembrane space. d. The complete oxidation of FADH2 causes transfer of 6 protons and yields two ATP.
Cyanide is a poison that inhibits the electron transport chain by creating a strong and stable bond with Fe–Cu center in cytochrome C oxidase (complex IV). What is the immediate consequence cyanide poisoning? answer choices A.) Prevent oxidation of NADH B.) Prevent reduction of oxygen C.) Prevent reduction of NADH D.) Prevent oxidation of oxygen
The enzyme dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) normally resides in the cytosol, andDHFR can be imported into mitochondria by appending a mitochondrial signalsequence. However, when this modified DHFR is incubated with methotrexate, whichis a substrate analog that binds tightly to the active site, the modified DHFR is nolonger imported.a) Propose an explanation for why methotrexate prevents import of DHFR intomitochondria.b) Suppose that DHFR were modified instead by appending a nuclear localizationsignal. Would you expect methotrexate to prevent transport of this modified DHFRinto the nucleus? Why or why not?
(a) A simplistic interpretation of the Q cycle would predict that the proton pumping efficiency of cytochrome bc1 would be reduced by no more than 50% in the presence of saturating amounts of antimycin A. Explain. (b) Indicate why cytochrome bc1 is nearly 100% inhibited by antimycin A.
Discuss the role of E286 in the proton transfer carried out by cytochrome c oxidase. What are the D- and K-pathways? What is the fate of the protons from these two pathways? What is the role of E286? What three mechanisms contribute to the movement of the protons along these pathways?
Inhibitors of electron transport have been used to determine the order of electron carriers. What would be the expected redox states of cytochrome a, bi, and c when the following inhibitors are added to succinate-driven respiring mitochondria? (i) myxothiazol (ii) antimycin A (iii) rotenone
Why do the electrons carried by FADH2 result in less ATP production than those carried by NADH?
Given the roles of NAD*/NADH in dehydrogenation reactions and NADPH/NADP+ in reductions, as discussed on page 488, would you expect the intracellular ratio of NAD* to NADH to be high or low? What about the ratio of NADP* to NADPH? Explain your answers.
