Text: ΔG = ΔG° + RT ln Q
R = 8.315 x 10^-3 KJ/mol x K
ΔG = -nFΔE and ΔG° = -nFΔE°
F = 96.485 KJ/V x mol
ΔE = ΔE° - (RT/nF) ln Q
T - Kelvin (assume 25°C)
ΔE° = E°acceptor - E°donor
ΔG = zFΔy - 2.303 RTΔpH
Succinyl-CoA is an intermediate generated by the 5th enzyme in the TCA cycle, succinyl-CoA synthase. It is an allosteric effector of citrate synthase (the 1st enzyme in the cycle). Would you expect it to be an activator or inhibitor? Defend your answer.
If 1 ATP and 1 NADPH is made for every pair of electrons that move through photosynthesis and if it takes 9 ATP and 6 NADPH to make a 3 carbon sugar, how many photons of light must pass through the light reactions of photosynthesis to produce one molecule of sedoheptulose-7-phosphate (7 carbons)?
ETF contains a bound FAD (E° = -0.068 V) and is known to transfer electrons derived from metabolizing fats and amino to ubiquinol (Q; E° = 0.040 V).
FADH2 + Q yields FAD + QH2
If the cellular ratio of FAD/FADH2 on ETF is 1/1 and the cellular ratio of Q/QH2 is 2.2/1, what is ΔG for the reaction.
If ΔG in liver mitochondria has been measured at -24.7 KJ/mol and Δy has been measured at -0.145 V and the pH in the mitochondrial matrix is 7.53, what is the pH of the inner membrane space of the mitochondria?
