Study Notes
- The Krebs cycle is a metabolic pathway that produces energy in the form of ATP.
- It occurs in the mitochondrial matrix of the cell.
- Acetyl-CoA and other intermediates are used to produce ATP.
- The cycle consists of 8 steps, each catalyzed by a specific enzyme.
- The steps include condensation, isomerization, oxidation, decarboxylation, phosphorylation, hydration, and oxidation.
- NADH, FADH2, and CO2 are produced as byproducts.
- The cycle produces ATP, NADH, and FADH2.
- The energy produced is used to drive the metabolic processes of the cell.
- The Krebs cycle is also known as the citric acid cycle.
- The cycle is important for maintaining the normal functioning of the cell.
