glucose produce a net gain of 38 ATP (=34 ATP by respiratory ETS +
4 ATP by substrate level phosphoylation).
Respiratory dehydro-genases and ETS in prokaryotes are located in
the mesosome.
Cytochromes as electron carrier occur in both respiration and
photosynthesis.
dehydrogenation and decarboxylation occur together :
i Link reaction (conversion of pyruvic acid into acetyl CoA)
ii. Conversion of alpha-ketoglutaric acid int: ccinyl CoA during the
Kreb’s cycle.

Both respiratory ETS and oxidative phosphorylations are absent during
the anerobic respiration. In the ethanolic fermentation, the alternative
acceptor of electrons and protons from NADH + H? is acetaldehyde,
whereas in the lactic fermentation this acceptor is pyruvic acid.
Mitochondria are not associated with the anaerobic respiration.
Glycolysis is also referred to as Embden-Meyerhoff-Paranas (or EMP)
pathway in honour of persons who elucidates its reaction sequence.Tips & Tricks
Acetyl CoA is considered to be a link between fat metabolism and
carbohydrate metabolism.
Entner-Doudoroff (or ED) pathway is an alternative to glycolysis during
the respiration in such bacteria as Pseudomonas saccharophila and
Pseudomonas fluorescens.
Cyanide is specific inhibitor of cytochrome oxidase activity.
Iron is the activator of most cytochrome oxidases.
Hexose monophosphate shunt (or HMP pathway, also termed as
pentose monophosphate shunt or PMP pathway) is a faster and
ergonomically equally efficient alternative t lycolysis-Kreb's cycle

organisms under stress. It generates en, equivalent of 36 ATP
