Question Answer
Where does the Krebs cycle occur? In the mitochondrial matrix.
What are the net products per Acetyl-CoA in the Krebs cycle? 3 NADH, 1 FADH₂, 1 GTP, and 2 CO₂.
What are the net products per glucose? 6 NADH, 2 FADH₂, 2 GTP, and 4 CO₂
What is the mnemonic for Krebs Cycle intermediates? "Oh Can I Keep Studying Science For Medical School” (Oxaloacetate, Citrate, Isocitrate, α-Ketoglutarate, Succinyl-CoA, Succinate, Fumarate, Malate)
At which steps is NADH produced in the Krebs cycle? Step 3 (Isocitrate Dehydrogenase), Step 4 (α-Ketoglutarate Dehydrogenase), Step 8 (Malate Dehydrogenase).
At which step is FADH₂ produced? Step 6 (Succinate Dehydrogenase).
At which step is GTP (or ATP) produced? Step 5 (Succinyl-CoA Synthetase).
What is the rate-limiting enzyme of the Krebs cycle? Isocitrate Dehydrogenase.
What activates and inhibits Isocitrate Dehydrogenase? Activated by ADP and Ca²⁺; Inhibited by ATP and NADH.
What are the three key regulatory enzymes in the Krebs cycle? Citrate Synthase (Step 1), Isocitrate Dehydrogenase (Step 3), α-Ketoglutarate Dehydrogenase (Step 4).
Where do NADH and FADH₂ go after the Krebs cycle? They enter the Electron Transport Chain (ETC) to produce ATP.
How much ATP does NADH yield? A: 2.5 ATP per NADH.
How much ATP does FADH₂ yield? 1.5 ATP per FADH₂.
How much ATP is generated from the Krebs cycle per glucose? 20 ATP total: • 6 NADH → 15 ATP • 2 FADH₂ → 3 ATP • 2 GTP → 2 ATP
What is the only enzyme of the Krebs cycle located in the inner mitochondrial membrane? Succinate Dehydrogenase.
What inhibits α-Ketoglutarate Dehydrogenase? ATP, NADH, and Succinyl-CoA.
What activates α-Ketoglutarate Dehydrogenase? Ca²⁺.
What is the mnemonic for Krebs cycle regulation? "ATP and NADH Stop; ADP and Ca²⁺ Go!" (ATP and NADH inhibit; ADP and Ca²⁺ activate.)
How much ATP is generated from one turn of the Krebs cycle? 10 ATP per Acetyl-CoA.
How much ATP is generated from the Krebs cycle per glucose? 20 ATP per glucose.
What is the mnemonic for the Krebs Cycle enzymes? Cool Aunts In Kansas Sell Special Fudge Monthly (Citrate synthase, Aconitase, Isocitrate dehydrogenase, Alpha Ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, Succinyl CoA synthetase, Succinate dehydrogenase, Fumarase, Malate dehydrogenase)
