The assignment was completed in class but I don\'t quite remember what I put down but I want to double check:
1: 8 electrons
....
5: 30+?
In Class Exercise 1. How many electrons does one cycle of the TCA cycle introduce into the ETC? 2. How many of these electrons come from NADH? Using what complex? 3. How many from FADH2? Using what complex? 4. How many protons are transferred to the inner membrane space by each complex per pair of electrons? 5. How many protons are transferred to the inner membrane space from one cycle of the TCA cycle? Solution
1. one TCA cycle produces 3 NADH and 1 FADH2. two electrons are removed from NADH and 2 electrons from FADH2 so, total 8 electrons
2. Total 6 electrons from NADH. Electrons are carried from NADH to CoQ by the NADH-CoQ reductase complex.
3. Total 2 electrons from FADH2.
4 when.1 pair of electrons are transported from CoQH2 through the CoQH2–cytochrome c reductase complex to cytochrome c, four protons are translocated across the membrane.
