For every two electrons that traverse Complex IV, _______ pumped or vectorial protons are translocated.

Expert Solution

For every two electrons that traverse Complex IV , two protons are removed from the mitochondrial matrix although only one proton is translocated across the membrane.

Hence, only one proton is pumped or vectorial proton is translocated for every two electrons that traverse Complex IV.

During the transfer of two electrons from NADH to O2, protons pumped across the membrane to establish the electrochemical gradient. The amount of energy from previous problem consumed for maintaining membrane potential deltaY and gradient of protons across the membrane. Calculate the ratio of proton concentrations across the inner mitochondrial membrane, if the membrane potential was measured at 37 degrees C to be deltaY= 2.0 V.

Imagine a scenario is which 52 protons are pumped across the membrane of the inner mitochondrial membrane. If you assume that the glycerol-phosphate shuttle is used, and the overall yield of substrate-level phosphorylations is 3, a. What specific starting molecule in the metabolic pathways we studied would you start with to give such a yield of pumped protons and substrate level phosphorylations? b. At what specific reactions (give the reaction, not just a “number”) in the metabolic pathways would you...
