Malate dehydrogenase catalyzes the following reaction in the citric acid cycle (ΔGo’= +29.7 kJ mol-1).malate + NAD+ → oxaloacetate + NADHMatch each half reaction with its correct thermodynamic nature of the reaction.

Identify the subcellular location where activated electron carriers are produced by the given enzymes. Answer choices: Cytoplasm Outer mitochondrial membrane Inner mitochondrial membrane Mitochondrial matrix Pathway Enzyme Reducing equivalent Subcellular location Pyruvate dehydrogenase NADH [BLANK-1] Citric acid cycle Isocitrate dehydrogenase NADH [BLANK-2] Citric acid cycle/electron transport Succinate dehydrogenase FADH2 [BLANK-3] Electron transport Complex I QH2 [BLANK-4]

Hydrolysis of which bond releases the most energy in physiological conditions? phosphoBonds.png 

Given the Gibbs free energy equation in the Bx resource, the reaction catalyzed by phosphoglycerate kinase, its ΔGo’, and its ΔG under typical physiological conditions, 1 , 3 – B P G + A D P ⇄ 3 P G + A T P Δ G 0 ‘ = 18 . 8   k J · m o l – 1 Δ G = 1 . 3   k J · m o l – 1 identify each statement as True or False. [BLANK-1]  The reaction is near equilibrium under physiological conditions. [BLANK-2]  ΔG is the determining factor for whether the reaction is near or far from equilibrium. [BLANK-3]  Elevating the concentration of ATP will accelerate the forward reaction. [BLANK-4]  At equilibrium, the product of the concentrations of 3PG and ATP will equal the product of the concentrations of 1,3BPG and ADP.
