The number of
Concept Introduction:
Citric Acid Cycle: It involves 8 series reaction which converts acetyl group present in acetyl coenzyme A into 2
Enzyme: The proteins that helps
Condensation Reaction: It involves combination of two small molecules to form larger molecule with elimination of small molecule.
Rearrangement Reaction: It involves change in the carbon chain of the molecule that results to give structural isomer.
Oxidative Decarboxylation: It involves removal of carboxylate group that results in release of carbon dioxide.
Phosphorylation: It involves transfer of phosphate group from inorganic/organic phosphate to another chemical compound.
Oxidation: The oxidation is reaction that involves addition of oxygen atom or loss of electrons or removal of hydrogen atom present in the chemical compound.
Hydration: The combination of substance with water is termed as hydration.

- Why is it reasonable for excess NADH to negatively regulate the citric acid cycle?arrow_forwardWhat are the substrates and products of the net reaction corresponding to one turn of the citric acid cycle?arrow_forwardmatch the cofactor with its function in the citric acid cycle by entering the number corresponding with the function. A given function may be used more than one time or not at all. Use from the following list of functions to fill in the table below: carries O2 carries small carbon-containing molecules carries e- carries small nitrogen-containing molecules Cofactor Function NAD+/NADH FAD/FADH2 CoA thiamine biotinarrow_forward
- How does each of the following regulate citric acid cycle?(a) High levels of Succinyl-CoA(b) High levels of ADP(c) High levels of NADHarrow_forwardWhat step in the citric acid cycle is inhibited by fluoroacetate treatment?arrow_forwardSince no molecular oxygen participates in the citric acid cycle, the steps in which acetyl groups are oxidized to CO2 involve removal of hydride ions and hydrogen ions. What is the acceptor of hydride ions? What is the acceptor of hydrogen ions?arrow_forward
- Why, do you suppose, the coenzyme for the reaction in the citric acid cycle that is catalyzed by succinate dehydrogenase is FAD and not NAD+?arrow_forwardHow is succinate dehydrogenase unique compared with the other enzymes in the citric acid cycle?arrow_forwardWhat molecules areproduced as a result of the citric acid cycle?arrow_forward
- How many turns of the citric acid cycle are implicated in accounting for the net oxidation of one (1) mole of fructose to carbon dioxide and water?arrow_forwardWhat are the final products of the citric acid cycle (including the transitional phase) for the breakdown of 1 glucose molecule?arrow_forwardWhat is the yield of products for each "glucose" molecule that enters the citric acid cycle?arrow_forward
