What happens to pyruvate?
• depends on whether oxygen is present (aerobic respiration) or not (anaerobic respiration)
![Page 3: Aerobic Respiration Pyruvate Oxidation The Citric Acid Cycle](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ef95503460f94c0b00a/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Pyruvate Oxidation
• if oxygen is present, the pyruvate molecules are transported from the cytoplasm into the mitochondrial matrix

Pyruvate Oxidation
• 3 enzyme-catalyzed changes:
• decarboxylation forming CO2 as a by-product
• oxidation of the 2-carbon molecule, causing a reduction of NAD+ to NADH
• attachment of coenzyme A (a derivative of vitamin B5), forming acetyl-CoA

The Citric Acid Cycle
(Also known as the Krebs Cycle)
![Page 8: Aerobic Respiration Pyruvate Oxidation The Citric Acid Cycle](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ef95503460f94c0b00a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Citric Acid Cycle
• 8 enzyme-catalyzed reactions• occurs in the mitochondrial matrix• aerobic process• cyclic process: oxaloacetate is the
reactant of the first reaction and product of the last reaction
![Page 9: Aerobic Respiration Pyruvate Oxidation The Citric Acid Cycle](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ef95503460f94c0b00a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Citric Acid Cycle Pathway
![Page 11: Aerobic Respiration Pyruvate Oxidation The Citric Acid Cycle](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ef95503460f94c0b00a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Major Processes:Decarboxylation (Reactions 3 & 4)
• 2 different reactions involve the removal of carbon as CO2
![Page 12: Aerobic Respiration Pyruvate Oxidation The Citric Acid Cycle](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ef95503460f94c0b00a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Major Processes:Oxidation (Reactions 3, 4, 6, 8)
• H atoms (with their associated electrons) are transferred to a coenzyme (NAD+ or FAD)
![Page 13: Aerobic Respiration Pyruvate Oxidation The Citric Acid Cycle](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ef95503460f94c0b00a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Major Processes:Energy Production (Reaction 5)
• during one of the reactions, ATP is generated by substrate-level phosphorylation.
• it is coupled to a reaction which has a large amount of free energy release
![Page 14: Aerobic Respiration Pyruvate Oxidation The Citric Acid Cycle](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ef95503460f94c0b00a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Summary
• oxaloacetate is regenerated in the last step
• all 6 carbons from glucose have been oxidized to CO2
• all of the energy from glucose is in the form of ATP, NADH and FADH2
