alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase will do which of the following: Select one: a. Pyruvate is decarboxylated to become acetyl-CoA producing NADH and Carbon dioxide b. Succinate is oxidized to become fumarate forming FADH2 c. Succinyl-CoA becomes Succinate and forms one ATP molecule and Coenzyme A-SH d. Oxaloacetate combines with the acetyl from acetyl-CoA to produce Citric acid(citrate) e. Malate is oxidized to become oxaloacetate forming NADH f. Isocitrate and then decarboxylated and oxidized to produce alpha-ketoglutarate, Carbon dioxide and NADH g. Citrate is rearranged to become Isocitrate h. Fumarate is combined with water to become Malate i. alpha-ketoglutarate is oxidized and decarboxylated to produce Succinyl-CoA, Carbon dioxide and NADH
Which of the following statements is falseconcerning acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC)? ACC is more active when protomers condense to form polymers Palmitoyl CoA serves as a feedback inhibitor The source of carbons for ACC comes from the carbon skeletons of malate that is exported from the matrix of the mitochondria in the form of malate Binding of glucagon triggers cAMP production, which leads to inhibition of ACC
In the first step of the TCA cycle the acetyl group of acetyl-CoA is transferred to oxaloacetate to produce citrate. Where will the carbonyl carbon of that acetyl group be after the first CO2 is expelled? Group of answer choices The first carbon of α-ketoglutarate The last carbon of α-ketoglutarate The fourth carbon of α-ketoglutarate The third carbon of α-ketoglutarate

Which of the following is most helpful in ensuring that wasteful (unproductive) hydrolysis of acetyl CoA does not occur in the reaction catalyzed by citrate synthase? Group of answer choices Citrate synthase is a tetramer Induced fit ensures oxaloacetate binds before acetyl CoA 3 molecules of oxaloacetate bind for every 1 molecule of acetyl CoA Citrate inhibits the reaction Which of the following catalyzes a step that does NOT produce CO2? Group of answer choices alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex malate dehydrogenase pyruvate dehydrogenase complex isocitrate dehydrogenase Citrate synthase is regulated by... Group of answer choices Concentrations of substrate and products Fructose-2,6-Bisphosphate Covalent modification Allosteric regulation by the levels of NADDH
The citric acid cycle converts each acetyl-CoA to [1/2/3/4] molecules of CO2. This pathway is considered [catabolic/anabolic] because it breaks down acetyl-CoA into smaller molecules and [catabolic/anabolic] because the intermediates are building blocks for other metabolites in the cell. The citric acid cycle produces [1/2/3] NADH and [1/2/3] FADH2 for every acetyl-CoA consumed. help fill in the blanks
