In the last reaction of the citric acid cycle, malate is dehydrogenated to regenerate the oxaloacetate necessary for the entry of acetyl-CoA into the cycle: L-Malate + NAD+ → oxaloacetate + NADH + H* AG'° = 30.0 kJ/mol (a) Calculate the equilibrium constant for this reaction at 25 °C. (b) Because AG°' assumes a standard pH of 7, the equilibrium constant calculated in (a) corresponds to [oxaloacetate][NADH] Keq [L-malate][NAD*] The measured concentration of L-malate in rat liver mitochondria is about 0.20 mM when [NAD*]/[NADH] is 10. Calculate the concentration of oxaloacetate at pH 7 in these mitochondria. (c) To appreciate the magnitude of the mitochondrial oxaloacetate concentration, calculate the number of oxaloacetate molecules in a single rat liver mitochondrion. Assume the mitochondrion is a sphere of diameter 2.0 microns.
