Compare the delta ΔG0' values for the oxidation of succinate by NAD+ and by FAD. Use the data given in Table 18.1 to find the E0' of the NAD+-NADH and fumarate-succinate couples, and assume that E0' for the FAD – FADH2 redox couple is nearly 0.05 V. Why is FAD rather than NAD+ the electron acceptor in the reaction catalyzed by succinate dehydrogenase?
Under standard conditions, is the oxidation of ubiquinol (Coenzyme Q) by O2 sufficiently exergonic to drive the synthesis of ATP? If yes, how many ATP can be synthesized assuming 100% efficiency?
The inhibitor X prevents coenzyme Q (Q) from participating in electron transfer in the electrontransport chain.(a) Will the presence of X prevent electrons from N ADH from passing through the electron trans-port chain? Explain why or why not.(b) Compound Y is a non-physiological reducing agent capable of directly reducing cytochromec1 in Complex III. Would oxygen consumption resume upon the addition of compound Y tomitochondria inhibited by inhibitor X? Be sure to explain your answer.
