Summary Introduction

To review:

The conditions that indicate low energy status and providedescription of the impact that each of the following conditions will have on flux (through the citric acid cycle):

a. High NADH/NAD+ (Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) ratio

b. High ATP/ADP (adenosine triphosphate/adenosine diphosphate) ratio

c. High acetyl-CoA (Coenzyme A) concentration

d. Low citrate concentration

e. High succinyl-CoA concentration.

Introduction:

In mitochondri, aitricacid cycle occurs immediately after glycolysis. It is regulated by the cell’s energyrequirement. When the cellrequires energy, citric acid cycle is stimulate, dhereas it will in inhibited when energy is not needed.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
What step in the citric acid cycle is inhibited by fluoroacetate treatment?
Why is the Krebs cycle considered part of aerobic metabolism, even though O2 does not appear in any of its catalytic reaction?
The citric acid cycle itself, which is composed of enzymatically catalyzed steps, can be thought of essentially as a supramolecular enzyme. Explain.
