Biochemistry 3381A Study Guide - Quiz Guide: Oxidative Phosphorylation, Acetyl-Coa, Inner Membrane
Document Summary
Produces atp by oxidative phosphorylation (chemiosmosis + electron transport: chloroplast. Both have extensive internal membrane systems which contain sets of membrane protein complexes that work together to produce most of cell"s atp. Inner membrane of large mitochondria contains protein called respiratory chain which is the electron-transport chain from. Pyruvate fatty acids glucose) and (derived are transported across the inner mitochondrial membrane to the matrix where they are converted into acetyl coa by enzymes located in the matrix. The acetyl groups in acetyl coa are oxidized in the matrix via the citric acid cycle. Oxidation produces co2 which diffuses out of the membrane. Citric acid released electrons which are carried by. Nadh transports electrons from the matrix to the electron transport chain in the inner mitochondrial membrane. In the process of oxidative phosphorylation, these electrons pass along the electron-transport chain from fats) cycle. In presence of o2 and occurs in mitochondria (matrix)
