What else can I help you with?
There are six carbon in glucose molecule C-1 to C-6 Which carbon is released as CO2 in tca cycle?
Carbon 1 and Carbon 4 in glucose molecule are released as CO2 in the TCA cycle.
What are the two other names for Krebs cycle?
Citric Acid Cycle TCA Cycle (tricarboxcylic acid cycle).
TCA cycle is Amphibolic in nature-Why?
In aerobic organisms the TCA is amphibolic pathway, one that both srves in the catabolic and anabolic processes. besides its role in the oxidative catabolism of carbohydrates, fatty acids and amino acids, the cycle provides precursors for many biosynthetic pathways
What are the three inhibitors of tca cycle?
1.) Increases in NADH, Succinyl CoA, ATP, Citrate inhibit citrate synthase. 2.) Increases in ATP will inhibitisocitrate dehydrogenase. 3.) Increases in succinyl CoA and NADH will inhibit succinate thiokinase.
Which statement describes the first chemical reaction in the Krebs cycle?
The first step of the Krebs cycle involves the condensation of acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate to form citrate, catalyzed by the enzyme citrate synthase. This reaction is irreversible and initiates the series of reactions that ultimately lead to the production of energy-rich molecules like ATP.
How many NADH's are generated after one cycle of the TCA?
Two molecules of NADH are generated after one cycle of the TCA (Krebs) cycle.
What products are generated from TCA cycle?
The products generated from the TCA cycle are ATP (energy), carbon dioxide, and reduced electron carriers NADH and FADH2, which are important in cellular respiration for generating more ATP.
What products is NOT generated via TCA cycle or electron transport chain?
Nucleotides, lipids, and some amino acids are not directly generated via the TCA cycle or electron transport chain. They are derived from intermediates of these processes but have different metabolic pathways for their synthesis.
Where does TCA cycle occur in the cell?
TCA cycle occur in the mitochondria (the power house of the cell)
Does tca cycle generate water?
No, the TCA cycle (also known as the citric acid cycle or Krebs cycle) does not directly generate water. Instead, it is a series of chemical reactions that converts acetyl-CoA into carbon dioxide, producing ATP and electron carriers like NADH and FADH2 in the process. Water is mainly generated through oxidative phosphorylation in the electron transport chain.
Is oxygen used in the TCA cycle?
No, oxygen is not directly used in the TCA (tricarboxylic acid) cycle. The TCA cycle, also known as the citric acid cycle, is a series of chemical reactions that occur in the mitochondria and is primarily involved in generating energy from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Oxygen is used in the electron transport chain, which is a separate process that follows the TCA cycle and is responsible for the final stages of cellular respiration.
Is the TCA cycle the same as Krebs Cycle?
Yes, the TCA (tricarboxylic acid) cycle is another name for the Krebs cycle or citric acid cycle. These terms are used interchangeably to describe the same metabolic pathway that occurs in the mitochondria of cells, producing ATP and carbon dioxide as part of aerobic respiration.
What is anaploretic?
It means "Filling up"... If we are talking about the TCA cycle, which I am assuming we are. A set of reactions, one of which is the glyoxylate cycle supports the TCA cycle with intermediates that are used in making other molecules, therefore filling in the intermediate that were used in other reactions. For example, Citrate is used to make Fatty Acids and Cholesterol. When citrate is pulled from the TCA cycle to make these molecules fewer citrate molecules will go through the TCA cycle making less succinate and there for less oxaloacetate. The glyoxylate cycle makes up for this deficit by making succinate, fumarate, and malate which will proceed to complete the TCA cycle.
What pathway is phosphofructokinase involved in?
Glycolytic and TCA cycle
What is the kerb cycle also called?
The kerb cycle is also known as the citric acid cycle or the TCA cycle.
What is the name for the cyclic reaction that occurs in aerobic respiration?
Kreb's cycle or TCA cycle
What is the name of the final 3 carbon compound generated by the Calvin cycle?
carbon dioxide, oxygen and waste
