What role does the citric acid cycle play in amino acid
metabolism?a. breakdown of glucogenic amino acids feeds metabolites into
the citric acid cycleb. amino acid synthesis often relies on intermediates of the
citric acid cyclec. breakdown of ketogenic amino acids feeds metabolites into the
citric acid cyclea, b, & ca & b
inThe citric acid cycle there are three reactions of the citric
acid cycle it's self that are regulated:
-citrate synthase which is where ATP inhibits in in
citeo
-isocitrate dehydrogenase: alosterrically activated by Ca2+
and ADP also is inhibited by NADH
- alpha ketoglutarate dehydrogenase which is where Ca2+
increases the rate of formation of succinyl-CoA
what would happen if all three of these reactions were not
present? what would happen if citrate synthase was not functioning,
what would happen...
The primary role citric acid cycle is to collect high energy
electrons from the oxidation of carbons in the form of NADH and
FADH2. If the electron transport chain is inhibited, would you
expect the citric acid cycle to be more active or less active?
