Study Notes

Alcoholic Fermentation

  • During alcoholic fermentation, pyruvate is reduced via a two-step process that regenerates NAD+ and produces carbon dioxide as a byproduct.

Mitochondria

  • Mitochondria are dynamic energy-converting organelles that house the enzymes for glycolysis and the citric acid cycle.
  • Porins in the inner mitochondrial membrane contain beta-sheets in their transmembrane domains, allowing moderately-sized molecules to pass through membranes.
  • Protein complexes of the electron transport chain generate a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane.

NAD+

  • Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) becomes reduced when it gains electrons.

Hydrolysis Reaction

  • Water is required for a hydrolysis reaction.

Lipid Rafts

  • Lipid rafts are characterized by... (no additional information provided)

Cell Membrane

  • ...function like a fence to block membrane protein movement between various regions of an intestinal epithelial cell membrane.

Endosymbiosis

  • Endosymbiosis proposes that mitochondria and chloroplasts evolved from prokaryotic cells.
