Microbial Metabolism - Respiration: Citric Acid and Glyoxylate Cycles
6 important questions on Microbial Metabolism - Respiration: Citric Acid and Glyoxylate Cycles
How many ATP molecules can be made by aerobically respiring a glucose molecule to CO2?
Which two major roles does the CAC play in the cell?
- Glucose respiration coupled to energy conservation
- The biosynthesis of key metabolites
Why can't two-carbon compounds be oxidized by the citric acid cycle alone?
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
What is the variation of the citric acid cycle used for two-carbon compounds such as acetate?
Which two additional enzymes are used in the glyoxylate cycle?
Why isn't the glyoxylate cycle needed for three-carbon compounds?
