Document Summary

The tendency of a compound to accept electron (or be reduced). The electrons from nadh must get to the electron transport chain in the mitochondria, but there is not a transporter in the mitochondrial inner membrane b). It is less likely to be reduced (more likely to be oxidized), or gain electrons, because it has a lower affinity for electrons. Lower to higher reduction potential is transferring electrons from lower affinity to higher affinity. Eo" = -0. 315 (-0. 166) = -0. 149 v. Eo" = -0. 166v: cytc c (fe2+) + cyto a3(fe3+) cytc c (fe3+) + cyto a3(fe2+) Cytc c (fe3+) + e- cytc c (fe2+) Eo" = 0. 385 0. 235 = 0. 15 v. Eo" = 0. 385v: coqh2 + o2 coq + h2o. Eo" = 0. 815v: 4cytc c (fe2+) + 4h+ + o2 4cytc c (fe3+) + 2h2o. 4cytc c (fe3+)+ 4e- 4cytc c (fe2+) The malate aspartate shuttle is more efficient as nadh is converted to nadh, and no atp is lost.
