13
Citric acid cycle In the presence of oxygen, pyruvate enters the mitochondrial matrix A derivative of pyruvate that enters the CAC Pyruvate is transformed to Acetyl Co A in the three reactions –Pyruvate’s carboxyl group is released (CO 2 is emitted) –Remaining 2-C molecule is oxidized (NAD+ is reduced to NADH) –Co-enzyme A is added Pyruvate + NAD + + CoA Acetyl- CoA + NADH + CO 2 + H +
14
Citric acid cycle What’s going on with the molecules? Acetyl-CoA (2-C molecule) binds with oxaloacetate (4-C molecule) Citrate (6-C molecule) is rearranged and decarboxylated (CO 2 is emitted) Oxaloacetate (4-C molecule) is regenerated CAC
