139 views6 pages

Document Summary

Substrates: reduced e acceptors (fad, nad+, from glycolysis (cytosol: Nadh, which needs to be transported into the etc across the innermembrane space that is impermissible) and tca cycle- in the mitochondria transferred right to etc) But we only need e shuttles from nadh to the etc and not nadh. Entry of cytosolic nadh electrons into the etc. Use malate as the carrier in the membrane. Oxaloacetate reduced to malate transporter for malate across the membrane to go to cytosol (where gluconeogenesis occurs) Also malate dehydrogenase to change it back to malate and transported into etc. Need to replace oxaloacetate, which does not have a corresponding. But transamination converts oaa to aspartate, transferable through transfer the inner membrane. Nad+ reduced to nadh in tca cycle. Purpose of shuttle: to get e from nadh from cytosol to etc across the membrane. Both malate-alpha-ketoglutarate transporter and glutamate-aspartate transporters are *antiporters* Via transamination process to convert intermediates to corresponding aas.
