Cycle
the mitochondrial
matrix.
Catabolic role:
CO2
Amino acids, fats, and
sugars enter the TCA cycle to produce energy. Acetyl CoA is a central intermediate
Anabolic role: TCA cycle provides starting material for fats and amino acids. Note: carbohydrates cannot
be synthesized from acetyl-CoA by humans. PyruvateAcetyl CoA is one way!
In contrast to glycolysis, none of the intermediates are phosphorylated; but all are either di- or
tricarboxylic acids.
Regulation is largely by sensing energy levels.
1: Overall Carbon Flow:
All of the carbons that are input as pyruvate are released
as CO2. This is as highly oxidized as carbon can get.
Each time a CO2 is produced one NADH is produced.
This reaction is called oxidative decarboxylation.
Locations of CO2 release:
1. Pyruvate Dehydrogenase: Pyruvate to AcetylCoA
2. Isocitrate dehydrogenase: Isocitrate to ketoglutarate
3. -ketoglutarate dehydrogenase:-ketoglutarate to
succinyl-CoA
The largest change in the carbon structure occurs at step
1: The citrate synthase reaction catalyzes the following
reaction:
C2 (acetate) + C4 (oxaloacetate)  C6 (Citrate).
Subsequent reactions remove two carbons from citrate to
generate the C4 compound. Note that these carbons are not the
same as those added.

2. Energetics of the TCA Cycle:
Glucose
In contrast to glycolysis, most of the
energetic currency is in the form of
redox reactions, only a single ATP is
produced/pyruvate while four NADH
and one FADH2 are produced. Most of
the energy from oxidation is of glucose
is harvested in the TCA cycle. The
TCA cycle is a slower but richer source
of energy.
2a: Oxidative decarboxylations:
These occur at three locations,
leading to the loss of the three
carbons from pyruvate.
1. Pyruvate dehydrogenase
2. Isocitrate dehydrogenase
3. -ketoglutarate dehydrogenase
Pyruvate dehydrogenase: This
reaction, as with α-ketoglutarate
dehydrogense, produces a thio-ester as
the oxidized species. The reaction
proceeds in two steps, loss of the CO2
group, followed by oxidation of the
aldehyde and formation of the thioester (The latter step is equivalent to
the scheme for oxidation of
glyceraldehyde-3-P in glycolysis, but
occurs by a different mechanism
here.)
The thio-ester is formed between the
oxidized product and Coenzyme A, to
form acetyl-CoA. The thio-ester is the
same oxidation state as a carboxylate.

Thioesters in Biochemical Reactions:
i) The relatively weak thioester bond facilitates the
transfer of the acetyl group to other compounds,
such as transfer of the acetyl group to
oxaloacetate in the citrate synthase reaction.

ii) Acetyl-CoA or succinyl CoA are high energy compounds, capable of driving the synthesis of GTP, such as in
the succinyl CoA synthetase in the citric acid cycle. GTP can be converted to ATP at no energy cost.

2. Regulated reactions are at the "top" of the pathway.
Examples of:
1. Product Inhibition.
2. Allosteric inhibition by feedback inhibition by products 'down stream' in the pathway.
Energy sensing is the most important regulatory control of the TCA cycle (I=inhibited)

Fatty acids
Fatty Acid Oxidation (-Oxidation):
A. Formation of Acyl-CoA (Cytosol): The fatty acids in the
Acyl-CoA
cytosol are coupled to coenzyme A to form acyl-CoA. The
activation reaction is catalyzed by acyl-CoA synthetase and
involves the hydrolysis of ATP to AMP, i.e. the equivalent of two
high energy ATP molecules (60 kJ/mol). The released
pyrophosphate is hydrolyzed to inorganic phosphate, making the
overall ΔG negative for the rection (indirect coupling) Note: it is
only necessary to utilize ATP once in the activation of the fatty
acid.

4. Cleavage reaction by -ketoacy-CoA thiolase (thiolysis), generates acetyl-CoA and an acyl-CoA that is
two carbons shorter. The acetyl-CoA enters the TCA cycle.
