Citric Acid
Cycle
1. List the functions
of mitochondria including metabolic
processes associated with this organelle.
2. Identify the
sources and fates of pyruvate and acetyl CoA.
3. For E1,
E2 and E3
of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex
(PDH), identify what goes into the complex and what comes out.
4. List the citric acid (tricarboxylic
acid) cycle reactions, pay
particular attention to the reactions associated with energy production (GTP,
NADH, FADH2 formation)
and describe their regulation.
5. Discuss the energy production from the citric acid
cycle.
