simplyLearnt Tips & Tricks www.simplylearnt.com 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. No decarboxylation occurs during the gh Phosphoglyceric dehydr-ogenase and m are activated by magnesium ions. Accumulation of glucose-6-phosp aus tic feed-back inhibition of hexokinaase activity.

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 combine, and is resorted to by either r. growing organisms or organisms under stress. It generates en, equivalent of 36 ATP per glucose, by oxidative phosphorylatio! g HMP pathway is thus a kind of cya! sensiti ic respiration.
