Document Summary

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase: catalyzes the oxidation and phosphorylation of g3p of the energy rich intermediate. Also can be a signaling mechanism for programmed death; apoptosis- this occurs when it is accumulated in the nucleus. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (g3p) + nad+ + pi 1,3-biphosphoglycerate(1,3 bpg) + nadh + h+ Chemiosmosis: hydrogen concentration gradient in the inner mitochondrial mix. Helps with the phosphorylation of adp to atp. Electron transfer: nadh and succinate generated in the citric acid cycle will become oxidized which helps power the atp synthase. Atp synthase is what shuttles the electrons.
