    Krebs Cycle Lab Report

    he Krebs Cycle also expressed as: CH3C(=O)C(=O)O− (pyruvate) + HSCoA + NAD+ → CH3C(=O)SCoA (acetyl-CoA) + NADH + CO2 is the main pathway in all aerobic organisms. Basically it’s the way that cells produce energy for itself, but the only issue is it requires the presence of oxygen. In total eight reactions that take place in the mitochondria, and these reactions result in two carbon molecules and oxidizes it into carbon dioxide. Step 1 Citrate synthase bridges to Oxaloacetate substrates which can then bind to Acetyl–CoA’s acetyl group, which drops off the A Co-enzyme. This in turn created citrates for usage later in the Krebs cycle. This six-carbon molecule will be degraded, and biotransformed back into Oxaloacetate.Step 2The citrate isn't…

    Cell Energy Worksheet

    The Citric Acid Cycle starts after the glycolysis cycle produces the acetyl CoA compound. The Coenzyme A is removed and the remaining carbon skeleton is attached to another 4-carbon molecule. The new 6-carbon chain releases carbon dioxide. Two ATP’s are produced during this process for each molecule of glucose. The end result of the citric acid cycle is 4 CO molecules, 6 NADH molecules, 2 ATP molecules and 2 FADH2 molecules. The process is part of the conversion of carbs, fats, and proteins into carbon dioxide and water; which is usable energy.…

    Citric Acid Cycle Research Paper

    The Citric Acid Cycle is a series of enzyme-catalysed reactions that take place in the mitochondrial matrix of all aerobic organisms. It involves the oxidation of the acetyl group of acetyl CoA to two molecules of carbon dioxide. Each cycle produces one molecule of ATP by substrate-level phosphorylation, and reduces three molecules of NAD and one molecule of FAD for use in Oxidative Phosphorylation. The cycle is preceded by Glycolysis, which also occurs in anaerobic respiration, and the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, which occur in the cytoplasm and the mitochondrial matrix respectively. In aerobic respiration, glycolysis breaks down one molecule of glucose and two molecules of pyruvate, and gives a net product…
