Card preview (12)
whats the point of coenzyme A
transfers acetate groups
where is coA used
link reaction - combines with acetate to form acetyl coa krebs cycle - deliveres acetyl group to oxaloacetate forming citrate
defenition of co-enzymes
act as electron carriers allowing oxidation - reducion reactions in respiration to occur
where is FAD used
only used in krebs cycle
whats the fate of FAD
carriers electrons to the ETC enters later in ETC than NADH - producing less ATP
where is NAD used (baisic)
glycoloysis link krebs cycle
when in glycolysis is NAD used
nad reduced when triose phosphate - pyruvate
when in link reaction is NAD used
reduced when pyruvate - acetate
when in krebs cycle is NAD used
multiple steps where is reduced during dehydrogenation
what actually is NAD
main hydrogen acceptor
fate of NADH
delivers electeons to the ETC, reoxidised back to NAD so can be reused
when does NAD become reduced
hydrogen atoms form glycolysis , link reaction + krebs cycle electrons carried with those hydrogens
