Describe how C.A.C. serves as a “hub “pathway. Use picture as a reference. Pyruvate Glucose Fatty acids sterols pyruvate carboxylase Acetyl-CoA PEP carboxykinase Glutamine Citrate Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) Proline Arginine Oxaloacetate PEP carboxylase Citric acid cycle a-Ketoglutarate Malate Glutamate Aspartate Asparagine Serine Glycine Cysteine malic enzyme Purines Succinyl-CoA Phenylalanine Pyrimidines Pyruvate Tyrosine Tryptophan Porphyrins heme Figure 16-16...
80.1% Resources Hint Check Answer Animals are not able to convert fatty acids into carbohydrates. The net synthesis of 1 mol of oxaloacetate from 2 mol of acetyl-CoA by the citric acid cycle does not occur because 1 mol of oxaloacetate is used in the cycle for each one generated. Plants are able to convert 2 mol of acetyl-CoA into 1 mol of oxaloacetate with only two additional enzymes not found in animals. This process is called the glyoxylate cycle,...

Fatty acids can increase the pool of citric acid cycle intermediates 4. ADP inhibits α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase 5. The pool of mitochondrial oxaloacetate can be increased by pyruvate 6. All enzymes of the citric acid cycle are found soluble and free in the mitochondrial matrix

16. How many ATP's are produced per Acetyl-CoA? 17. How many ATP's (include ATP equivalents) and CO2 molecules are produced per glucose operating under aerobic? Anabolic and Catalytic Functions of the Citric Acid Cycle 18. Use Figure 14-16 to describe how the Citric Acid Cycle supplies the precursors for the synthesis of amino acids, glucose, and fatty acids.

Which of the following statements about gluconeogenesis is correct? a. Because they form acetyl coA, fatty acids can be a substrate for gluconeogenesis. b. The reaction of phosphenolpyruvate carboxykinase is important to replenish the pool of citric acid cycle intermediates. c. The use of GTP as the phosphate donor in the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase reaction provides a link between citric acid cycle activity and gluconeogenesis. d. There is a greater yield of ATP in anaerobic glycolysis than the cost for synthesis...

Mitochondrial matrix. The site of B-oxidation in the cell is C. Malonyl-CoA Intermediate in fatty acid synthesis that D. Complex I inhibits carnitine acyltransferase I, thus regulating fatty acid oxidation. E. Carnitine in the third step of B-0&1&atiov, electrons are NADPH transferred to NAD+; NADH then donates...
1. Select the TRUE statement about the citric acid cycle. A. Isocitrate dehydrogenase is a multienzyme complex that is very similar to the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex B. The two decarboxylation steps occur right after each other, first via oxidative alpha- decarboxylation, then via oxidative beta- decarboxylation. C. In one turn of the cycle, the two carbons that enter the cycle as acetyl CoA are the same two carbons that are released as CO2. D. A flavin containing dehydrogenase enzymes oxidizes...
