biochem reaction

• active portion of FAD - - Flavin Subunit
• parent molecule of phosphate group – Phosphoric acid
• stage in biochem energy production where energy is trapped in the form of NADH & FADH2 – Stage 3: citric acid cycle
• two important reaction in TCA

  • Oxidation
  • Decarboxylation
• Enzyme in TCA that is only localized in inner mitochondrial membrane – Succinate dehydrogenase
• Step 5 in TCA involves redox reaction - False
• Product o step 3 in TCA – A-ketoglutarate
• enzyme in Step 5 of TCA - succinyl CoA synthetase
• number of NAD+ consumed in TCA – 1
• common metabolic pathway include:

  • Citric acid cycle
  • Electron transport chain
  • Oxidative phosphorylation
• active portion of Coa - sulfhydryl group
• chemical bonds between phosphoryl groups in ATP and ADP called – phosphoanhydride
• Notation indicating strained bonds in a molecule - squiggle (~),
• 3rd redox reaction happens in this step of TCA - Oxidation of Succinate
• biochemical reaction in step 7 of TCA - Hydration Reaction
• substrate acted upon by the reaction In previous item - fumarase/fumarate
• end product of the dehydration process of citrate by aconitase is - Isocitrate
• a byproduct molecule formed in decarboxylation process - carbon dioxide (CO2)
