CONCEPT: CITRIC ACID CYCLE (KREBS CYCLE - TCA CYCLE) Overview The citric acid cycle is a set of metabolic reactions that occur after glycolysis to CO2 and NADH Pyruvate (glycolysis product) is

proteins responsible for this reaction The citric acid cycle oxidizes acetyl CoA to 1 GTP, 3 NADH, and 1 FAHD2 - The NADH is passed to the next step in cellular respiration (electron transport chain)

8 CONCEPT: CITRIC ACID CYCLE (KREBS CYCLE - TCA CYCLE) Overview The citric acid cycle is a set of metabolic reactions that occur after glycolysis to CO2 and NADH Pyruvate (glycolysis product) is decarboxylated (removes carboxyl group and releases CO2) to create acetyl CoA - Acetyl CoA is the starting molecule for the citric acid cycle - The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is the group of proteins responsible for this reaction The citric acid cycle oxidizes acetyl CoA to 1 GTP, 3 NADH, and 1 FAHD2 - The NADH is passed to the next step in cellular respiration (electron transport chain) The requirement for oxygen is indirect (the citric acid cycle doesn t use oxygen) but it is still classified as aerobic - The electron transport chain needs oxygen to replace the NAD + used by the citric acid cycle EXAMPLE: Overview of the Citric Acid Cycle Page 8

9 Cycle Steps 1. Citrate Synthesis - Water is consumed and CoA is released Acetyl-CoA Oxaloacetate Citrate 2. Isomerization (rearrangement of atoms) - Hydroxyl group is isomerized Citrate Cis-aconitate isocitrate 3.

CELL BIOLOGY - CLUTCH EXAMPLE: ATP synthase H+ Fo H+ γ subunit F1 ADP ATP Proton pumping and ATP synthesis are events Proton pumping occurs in 4 main steps 1.

21 CELL BIOLOGY - CLUTCH EXAMPLE: ATP synthase H+ Fo H+ γ subunit F1 ADP ATP Proton pumping and ATP synthesis are events Proton pumping occurs in 4 main steps 1. An H+ moves into an empty binding site within the F0 subunit causing a conformational change 2. This conformational change displaces protons further up the channel 3. Protons change place, which causes rotation of the F1 channel 4. The rotation allows for the continual displacement and movement of protons down their gradient ATP synthesis occurs in three main stages which use energy from H+ translocation to increase affinity for ADP 1. O stage (open): The Fo head binds ATP poorly and ADP weakly 2. L stage (loose): The Fo head cannot bind ATP but binds ADP and Pi Page 21

22 3. T stage (tight): The Fo head binds ADP and Pi so tightly they spontaneously form ATP - The energy from two H + translocations triggers conformational changes and ATP synthesis molecules of ATP are made per second (3 ATPs per revolution) EXAMPLE: The O, L and T stages of ATP synthesis ADP + P i Loose Open Tight ATP Page 22
