Document Summary

Summary of what we have learned to date: 2. pyruvate acetyl coa: isocitrate alpha ketogluterate, vketogluterate succinyl coa, succinate fumerate, malate oxaloacetate. Transfer of electrons from glucose, half-rxns : glucose + 6water 6 carbon dioxide+ 24 h + 24 e- 6oxygen + 24 h + 24 e- missed some. Energy of glucose oxidation is transferred into the high energy intermediates (nadh and fadh2) Nadh and fadh2 have a high electron transfer potential, ultimately cause reduction of oxygen to water. Reaction proceeds indirectly, and in doing so allows protons to be pumped across the imm, establishing a proton gradient. Establishes the proton motive force for the generation of atp o. Within the etc there is a progressive handoff of electrons to various intermediates with increasing e values. Eventually oxygen becomes the e acceptor, taking electrons (and hydrogen) to. Measure of how likely a molecules is going to pick up an electron.
