Chapter 17, Problem 31P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for citrate must be isomerized into isocitrate before any oxidation takes place in the TCA cycle.

Give the number of the reactions(s) of the citric acid cycle that reduce FAD give the order number of the reaction. If there
is more than one reaction, give their order numbers in increasing order separated by commas
Years ago there was interest in using uncouplers such as dinitrophenol as
weight control agents. Presumably, fat could be oxidized without concomi-
tant ATP synthesis for re-formation of fat or carbohydrate. Why was this a
bad (i.e., fatal) idea?
Before any oxidation can occur in the citric acid cycle, citrate must be isomerized into isocitrate. Why is this the case?
