TCA cycle
|
-occurs under aerobic condtions
-pyruvate from glycolysis is taken to mito & oxidized which forms co2,H2O,NADH & 15 ATP/pyruvate -when E charge is dec in cell,pyruvate is oxidized -once in mito pyruvate encounters 2 enzymes:pyruvate carboxylase & PDH -byproducts are 2CO2,1GTP,3NADH,1 FADH |
|
Pyruvate carboxylase
|
-pyruvate enters cell & CoA is acetylated
-this activates pyruvate carboxylase -which directs pyruvate to gluconeogenesis -defeciencies lead to lactic acid build up & CNS damage |
|
PDH
|
-dec E in cell inhibits pyruv carbox
-pyruvate is metabolized via PDH |
|
PDH complex
|
made of 3 enzymes:
-thiamine PP (pyrophosphate) -lipoate (dihydrolipoyl transacetylase) -riboflavin aka FAD(dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase) deficiencies: -thiamine leads to wernicke-korsakoff inc pyruvate levels,alanine,& lactate -lipoate is inhibited w/ binding of arsinate |
|
Regulation of PDH
|
-negative regulators:NADH,Acetyl CoA
-positive regulators: pyruvate,NAD,AMP,CoA |
|
Rxn 1 TCA cycle: Citrate synthase
|
-conensation of methyl C of acetyl CoA w/ keto C of OAA
-has lots of free E -very imp. in keeping cycle going in forward direction -Regulation: inhibited by ATP & citrate |
|
Rxn 2:Aconitase
|
citrate--[aconitase]=>isocitrate
-isomerization of citrate to isocitrate,OH from central C of citrate -stereospecific nature determines if the CO2 lost as isocitrate is oxidized t succinyl CoA -regulation:inhibited by fluoroacetate |
|
Rxn 3: Isocitrate dehydrogenase
|
isocitrate--[Isocitrate dehydrogenase]=>alpha ketogluterate & NADH & CO2
-1st RATE LIMITING STEP & 1st YIELD OF NADH IN TCA -regulation: activated by NAD+ & ADP inhibited by NADH |
|
Rxn 4:alpha ketogluterate dehydrogenase
|
isocitrate--[alpha ketogluterate dehydrogenase]=>succinyl CoA & CO2& NADH
-succ CoA & alpha keto are imp. in a.a synth -high free E change -regulation: inhibited by NADH/ATP/succ CoA |
|
Rxn 5: Succinyl CoA synthetase
|
succ CoA--[CoA synthetase]=>succinate,GTP,&CoA-SH
-reversible -used in heme production |
|
Rxn 6:Succinate dehydrogenase
|
succinate--[Succinate dehydrogenase]=>fumarate & FADH2
-reversible -membrane bound enzyme -FADH2 goes on to be oxidized by COq 10 in ox phos |
|
Rxn 7:Fumarase
|
fumarate + H2O --[fumarase]=>malate -reversble
|
|
Rxn 8:Malate dehydrogenase
|
malate(can be xported through cytoplasm to initiate gluconeogenesis)
+ NAD --[malate dehydrogenase]=> oxaloacetate & NADH & H+ -reverisble -synth Asp & pyrimidines |
|
Regulation of TCA
|
Availability of Acetyl CoA regulated by PDH:
Inhibition- NADH,NAD+ &Acetyl CoA Stimulation- CoA & AMP -ATP & citrate inhibit citrate synthase Isocitrate DH: -Inhib:NADH,NAD+ -Stim:ADP Ketogluterate DH: -Inhib:NADH,ATP,succinyl-CoA |
