Location of Acetyl CoA in a cell?
Acetyl coenzyme A is in the mitochondria of the cell.
Is pyruvic acid a product of both aerobic and anerobic respiration?
yes, the difference is that if its anaerobic the acid will turn into lactic acid. If its aerobic, the acid will turn into acetyl coenzyme A.
What is the enzyme involved in lactic acid fermentation?
Acetyl, Coenzyme A, (CoA) (:
In the transitional step between glycolysis and the Krebs cycle?
The product from glycolysis, a 3 carbonn pyruvate, has Coenzyme A and an NAD+ added to it with the help of an enzyme called pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and the products are a 2 carbon Acetyl Coenzyme A, CO2, NADH + H+.
What is acethyl CoA?
What is Coenzyme A?Photosynthetic plants convert light energy into chemical energy. Using their photosynthetic products (ATP, NAD(P)H, and carbon skeleton), plants have unique ability to assimilate soil and atmospheric elements into compounds usable by human and animals. Photosynthesis provides carbon precursors and cofactors for many of the essential plant biosynthetic pathways, of which coenzyme A (CoA) is one of their products.Function of Coenzyme A in PlantsCoenzyme A is a cofactor for 4% of the enzymes in plants. Coenzyme-a is converted into acyl-coenzyme-A (CoA), mainly acetyl-coenzyme-A (CoA), upon reaction with carbohydrate catabolites. Acetyl-coenzyme-A (CoA) is a key substrate in important metabolisms such as citric acid cycle (TCA cycle), fatty acid, some amino acids, flavonoid, wax, isoprenoid, lignin synthesis and storage lipid degradation. These biochemical pathways generate intermediate metabolites that play a role in the adaptation of the plant to changing environmental conditions, defense against pests, nutritional value, pigment and structural component synthesis. Acetyl-coenzyme-a (CoA) also mediates synthesis of secondary metabolites (natural products) of pharmaceutical and industrial significance.
Where does the intermediate step of cellular respiration take place in a cell?
in the cystol of the cytoplasm after converting to acetyl coenzyme A it can pass through the outer membrane of a mitochondrion
What is the name of the coenzyme that carries high-energy hydrogens during the process of respiration?
Acetyl coenzyme A carries high energy hydrogen molecules during the process of respiration. This occurs prior to the Kreb's Cycle.
What does pyruvate change to in respiration?
It splits into a two-carbon acetyl group, which is added to Coenzyme A to make Acetyl-CoA, and a CO2.
What are two examples of coenzymes used in cellular respiration?
Acetyl-CoA: CoA=Co-enzyme A; Coenzyme I, coenzyme II, coenzyme A and B-12 and coenzyme Q.
What is the molecule Acetyl coenzyme A a part of?
The metabolism process
Location of Acetyl CoA in a cell?
Acetyl coenzyme A is in the mitochondria of the cell.
Is pyruvic acid a product of both aerobic and anerobic respiration?
yes, the difference is that if its anaerobic the acid will turn into lactic acid. If its aerobic, the acid will turn into acetyl coenzyme A.
What substances are formed during Krebs cycle?
acetyl coenzyme a
What is the enzyme involved in lactic acid fermentation?
Acetyl, Coenzyme A, (CoA) (:
What is the intermediate product of glycolysis that can be used in the biosynthesis of lipids?
The intermediate products of glycolysis include glucose-6-phosphate, fructose-6-phosphate, fructose-1 6-bisphosphate, PGAL, bisphosphoglycerate, and PEP. The main intermediate products are fructose-1 6-bisphosphate, PGAL, and PEP.
What is a compound that is synthesized by cells and that plays a major role in metabolism?
acetyl coenzyme A
In the transitional step between glycolysis and the Krebs cycle?
The product from glycolysis, a 3 carbonn pyruvate, has Coenzyme A and an NAD+ added to it with the help of an enzyme called pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and the products are a 2 carbon Acetyl Coenzyme A, CO2, NADH + H+.
