Question
Answer
Step 1 CAC   Citrate synthase, oxalcetate (OAA) and acetyl CoA join by aldol condensation at OAA C2 (carbonyl group); subsequent cleavage of citryl CoA thioester bond drives reaction. citrate synthase reaction example of ordered substrate binding  
🗑
Step 2 CAC   aconitase isomerizes citrate to isocitrate, the C-3 moves to C-2 position  
🗑
Step 3 CAC   isocitrate DH oxidatively decarboxylates isocitrate. two electrons removed to form NADH+ and H+, caboxyl leaves as CO2  
🗑
step 4 CAC   a-ketoglutarate DH oxidatively decarboxylates a-KG. NADH+ and H+ is produced and a 4-C succinyl group is generated, reaction scheme is identical to pyruvate DH  
🗑
step 5 CAC   succinyl CoA synthetase produces succinate and GTP. a substrate level phosphorylation is coupled to cleavage if succinyl-CoA thioester bond. involves a phosphohistidine intermediate  
🗑
step 6 CAC   succinate is oxydized to fumarate by succinate dehydrogenase. electrons captured by FAD rather than NAD. enzyme is anchored to matrix face of inner mitochondrial membrane. part of electron transport system  
🗑
Step 7 CAC   Fumarase catalyzes the stereospecific hydration of the C2 and C3 double bond of Fumarate formung L-Malate  
🗑
Step 8 CAC   Malate DH oxidizes malate. NADH + H+ is produced and oxaloacetate is regenerated. energetically unfavorable under standard conditions, but occurs in vivo because of exergonic upstream and downstream rxns  
🗑
symmetric molecules acted on asymmetrically   citrate, aconitase moves OH specifically to C2, fumarate, fumarase adds water such that only L-malate is formed  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
