Why must the CAC be capable of being rapidly replenished?
Why must the CAC be capable of being rapidly replenished?
Answer: because it provides precursors for biosynthesis, reactions to replenish cycle components are required if the energy status of the cell changes
Why is the CAC a key hub in cellular metabolism?
Why is the CAC a key hub in cellular metabolism?
Answer: it can provide necessary materials for the generation of almost any carbon based molecules needed in the cell
How is the CAC regulated?
How is the CAC regulated?
Answer: Isocitrate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, and pyruvate dehydrogenase.

Answer: FADH2 and NADH
What is regenerated by the oxidation of succinate?
What is regenerated by the oxidation of succinate?
Answer: oxaloacetate, catalyzed by succinate dehydrogenase, fumarate, and malate dehydrogenase
What is generated from succinyl CoA?
What is generated from succinyl CoA?
Answer: a compound with a high phosphoric transfer potential, only step of CAC where this happens
What is formed by the oxidative decarboxylation of alpha-ketoglutarate?
What is formed by the oxidative decarboxylation of alpha-ketoglutarate?
Answer: succinyl CoA, catalyzed by alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex, generates NADH
What happens to isocitrate?
What happens to isocitrate?
Answer: oxidized and decarboxylated to alpha-ketoglutarate
What enzyme catalyzes isomerization of isocitrate from citrate?
What enzyme catalyzes isomerization of isocitrate from citrate?
Answer: aconitase
What is the name and role of the reaction intermediate in conformational change?
What is the name and role of the reaction intermediate in conformational change?
Answer: citric CoA causes structural change that completes the active site formation
How are structural changes induced in citrate synthase?
How are structural changes induced in citrate synthase?
Answer: binding of oxaloacetate, leads to the formation of acetyl CoA binding site
