The Citric Acid Cycle
Problems
Problem : What is the name of the enzyme that catalyzes the reaction that joins a molecule of acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate?
Problem : From which position on citrate to which position is the OH group transferred in the second step of the citric acid cycle by the enzyme acontinase?
Problem : What two types of reactions are catalyzed by the enzyme isocitrate dehydrogenase in the third reaction of the citric acid cycle?
Problem : In which of the first five steps of the citric acid cycle is NADH produced?
Problem : What citric acid cycle enzyme is responsible for catalyzing the reaction that produces GTP?
Problem : Fill in the blanks with the appropriate choice. FAD is the __________ (oxidized/reduced) form of flavin adenine dinucleotide while FADH is the __________ (oxidized/reduced) form.
Problem : What is the product when succinate is oxidized by the removal of two hydrogens by the enzyme succinate dehydrogenase?
Problem : Which molecule, NAD or FAD, would likely oxidize the following molecule?
Problem : Name the "final product" of the citric acid cycle. Why is this product not really the final product?
