|
1. alpha-glycerol phosphate shuttle-purpose
|
-Secondary mechanism of transporting electrons into the mitochondria
- |
|
|
2. Dihydoxyacetone Phosphate (DHAP) --> alpha-glycerol phosphate
|
Alpha-glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase
Produce NAD+ |
|
|
3. What does the alpha-glycerol phosphate do?
|
-Transfers the reducing power to FAD located in the intermembrane space of the mitochondria.
-Once transfer occurs, alpha-glycerol phosphate returns to DHAP. |
|
|
4. The now reduced FADH2 transfers the reducing power to what?
|
Cytochrome b located in the Mitochondrial matrix.
