Mitochondria are specialized organelles that contain the reactions of cellular respiration. A mitochondrion is bounded by two membrane layers: an outer membrane and a highly folded inner membrane. Cristae are folds of the inner membrane. The intermembrane space is the region between the two membranes, and the mitochondrial matrix is the fluid enclosed within the inner membrane.
Glycolysis is a metabolic pathway that splits glucose into two pyruvate molecules, producing a net yield of two ATPs and two NADHs. The complete process of glycolysis includes many steps, all of which occur in the cell’s cytosol.
After glycolysis, pyruvate moves into the mitochondrial matrix, where a “transition step” further oxidizes each pyruvate molecule. In this transition step, the CO2 molecule is removed, and NAD+ is reduced to NADH. The acetyl group is then transferred to coenzyme A to form acetyl coenzyme A. Acetyl CoA enters the Krebs cycle.
