How many carbons are in alpha-ketoglutarate?
The molecular formula is C5 H6 O5 so it it has 5 carbons.
How many carbons depart during the preparation steps and the cycle proper during the second stage of aerobic respiration?
During the second stage of aerobic respiration (Krebs cycle), two carbons are removed in the form of carbon dioxide at each turn of the cycle. This occurs during the conversion of isocitrate to alpha-ketoglutarate and then from alpha-ketoglutarate to succinyl-CoA.
Does alpha keto glutarate have glutamine in it?
alpha ketoglutarate is essentially a glutamate molecule that has been deaminated.
From Krebs cycle how many carbon dioxide molecules are released?
From the cycle itself, two molecules of CO2 are released. One from Isocitrate to alpha-Ketoglutarate (with an Oxalosuccinate molecule as an intermediate compound), and other in the step from alpha-Ketoglutarate to Succinyl-CoA.
Glutamate can be used as an energy source by first converting it to what citric acid cycle intermediate?
Alpha ketoglutarate
Where does co2 come from during Krebs cycle?
CO2 is produced during the Krebs cycle as a byproduct of decarboxylation reactions that occur when citrate is converted to isocitrate, isocitrate to alpha-ketoglutarate, and alpha-ketoglutarate to succinyl-CoA. These decarboxylation reactions release carbon dioxide as a waste product.
Which enzyme is the most similar to Pyruvate dehyrogenase a citrate dyhydrogenase b malate dehydrogenase c succinate dehydrogenase d isocitrate dehydrogenase e alpha ketoglutarage dehydrogenase?
Alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase is the most similar to Pyruvate dehydrogenase because both are part of the α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex, involved in the citric acid cycle and share structural and functional similarities.
Krebs cycle 3rd intermediate compound?
Assuming that the Kreb cycle starts with the citrate, the third compound is alpha-ketoglutarate.
What intermediate would supply the carbon skeleton for synthesis of a five-carbon amino acid?
The intermediate that would supply the carbon skeleton for the synthesis of a five-carbon amino acid is alpha-ketoglutarate. This intermediate is a key component of the citric acid cycle and can donate its carbon atoms in various biosynthetic pathways for the production of amino acids through transamination reactions.
Which substances in the citric acid cycle are tricarboxylic acids?
Isocitrate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinate, fumarate, and malate are tricarboxylic acids in the citric acid cycle.
How many carbons does glucose have?
6 carbons 6 carbons
What are Elements found in monosodium glutamate?
There are three (3) chiral carbons in monosodium glutamate (C5H8NO4Na), namely the two carbons on either end, alpha and epsilon, and amino-carbon, beta.
