Transfer of phosphate from a phosphorylated substrate into ADP forming ATP is known as...
Substrate-level phosphorylation
Removal of electrons, alone or together with H+ = Oxidation/Reduction
Oxidation
Addition of electrons, alone or together with H+ = Oxidation/Reduction
Reduction
*Normally* a 2-electron reaction, linked to reduction of coenzymes
Substrate oxidation
Membrane-bound haemoproteins that contain haem groups and carry out electron transport.
Cytochromes
The outer membrane of the mitochondrion is relatively freely permeable to substrates T/F
T
Fatty acid elongation takes place in the inter-membrane space of the mitochondrion T/F
F, on the outer membrane
Triacylglycerol synthesis from fatty acids takes place in on the inner membrane of the mitochondrion T/F
F, the outer membrane
An enzyme that hydrolyzes phospholipids into fatty acids and other lipophilic substances
Phospholipase (on the outer membrane of mitochondria)
The citric acid (Krebs) cycle takes place here
Matrix of mitochondrion
Electron transport takes part in the cristae of the mitochondria T/F
T
What process occurs in the primary particles of the mitochondria?
Oxidative phosphorylation
Fatty acid oxidation takes place in the matrix of the mitochondria T/F
T
Must appreciate the difference between hydrogen carriers and electron carriers
As well as the importance of the two single-electron redox reactions of flavins and ubiquinone
Mitochondria incubated with substrate but no added ATP are said to be in what state of respiration?
State 2 respiration
A dehydrogenase can oxidise something T/F
T (e.g. malate dehydrogenase oxidises malate through the NAD+ dependent enzyme)
A ratio of the amount of ADP phosphorylated to the amount of oxygen consumed
The P:O ratio
