Reactions of the citric acid (Krebs) cycle. Oxidation of NADH and FADH2 in the respiratory chain leads to the generation of ATP via oxidative phosphorylation. In order to follow the passage of acetyl-CoA through the cycle, the two carbon atoms of the acetyl radical are shown labeled on the carboxyl carbon (designated by as- • terisk) and on the methyl carbon (using the designation ). Although two carbon atoms are lost as CO2 in one revo- lution of the cycle, these atoms are not derived from the acetyl-CoA that has immediately entered the cycle but from that portion of the citrate molecule that was derived from oxaloacetate. However, on completion of a single turn of the cycle, the oxaloacetate that is regenerated is now labeled, which leads to labeled CO2 being evolved during the second turn of the cycle. Because succinate is a symmetric compound and because succinate dehydro- genase does not differentiate between its two carboxyl groups, “randomization” of label occurs at this step such that all four carbon atoms of oxaloacetate appear to be labeled after one turn of the cycle. During gluconeogene- sis, some of the label in oxaloacetate is incorporated into glucose and glycogen (Figure 19–1).

    Amphibolic nature of Krebs Cycle How what we are is what we eat • In aerobic organisms, the citric acid cycle is an amphibolic pathway, one that serves in both catabolic and anabolic processes. • Since the citric acid does both synthesis (anabolic) and breakdown (catabolic) activities, it is called an amphibolic pathway • The citric acid cycle is amphibolic (i.e it is both anabolic and catabolic in its function). • It is said to be an AMPHIBOLIC pathway, because it functions in both degradative or catabolic and biosynthetic or anabolic reactions (amphi = both) A central metabolic pathway or amphibolic pathway is a set of reactions which permit the interconversion of several metabolites, and represents the end of the catabolism and the beginning of anabolism • The KREBS CYCLE or citric acid cycle is a series of reactions that degrades acetyl CoA to yield carbon dioxide, and energy, which is used to produce NADH, H+ and FADH. • The KREBS CYCLE connects the catabolic pathways that begin with the digestion and degradation of foods in stages 1 and 2 with the oxidation of substrates in stage 3 that generates most of the energy for ATP synthesis. • The citric acid cycle is the final common pathway in the oxidation of fuel molecules. In stage 3 of metabolism, citric acid is a final common catabolic intermediate in the form of acetylCoA. • This is why the citric acid cycle is called a central metabolic pathway. Anaplerosis and Cataplerosis Anaplerosis is a series of enzymatic reactions in which metabolic intermediates enter the citric acid cycle from the cytosol. Cataplerosis is the opposite, a process where intermediates leave the citric acid cycle and enter the cytosol.

We identified the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the citrate acid cycle with colorectal cancer susceptibility in UK population. Furthermore, we found the significant interaction of SNPs in the citric acid cycle with the contributors to energy balance and SNP-SNP interactions. Our findings provide clues to the etiology in cancer development related to energy metabolism and evidence on identification of the population at high risk of colorectal cancer.

  • Nutrition and Metabolism
    NUTRITION AND METABOLISM Metabolism - the sum of the chemical changes that occur in the cell and involve the breakdown (catabolism) and synthesis (anabolism) of stored energy sources. Basal Metabolic Rate is dened as the rate of energy production by the body measured under a dened set of conditions which is usually at rest (physical and mental), room temperature, 12 hours after a meal. The result is produced as a percentage of a standard value which is derived from studies of normal healthy people. Measurement of the metabolic rate takes place using a method called calorimetry. This may be done directly by measuring the amount of heat produced by the body in an Atwater chamber, the metabolic rate is the amount of heat produced per hour. More commonly the metabolic rate is determined indirectly by putting people on a closed circuit breathing system, with CO2 removed by a soda lime scrubber and the rate of oxygen consumption measured by change in volume. Oxygen consumption is proportional to the metabolic rate because most of the energy in the body is derived from oxidative phosphorylation, which uses a set amount of oxygen to produce a set amount of energy. For every litre of oxygen consumed the body produces (uses) 4.82 kcals of energy. If the oxygen consumption is 250ml/min (15L/hr) then the metabolic rate is 72.3 kcals/hr. This is often further rened by dividing the gure by the body surface area which for a 70kg male is 1.73m2. This gives an average BMR of approximately 40 kcal/m2/hr.

In the eukaryotic system, the TCA cycle occurs completely in mitochondria, while the intermediates of the TCA cycle are retained inside mitochondria due to their polarity and hydrophilicity. Under cell stress conditions, mitochondria can become disrupted and release their contents, which act as danger signals in the cytosol. Of note, the TCA cycle intermediates may also leak from dysfunctioning mitochondria and regulate cellular processes. Increasing evidence shows that the metabolites of the TCA cycle are substantially involved in the regulation of immune responses. In this review, we aimed to provide a comprehensive systematic overview of the molecular mechanisms of each TCA cycle intermediate that may play key roles in regulating cellular immunity in cell stress and discuss its implication for immune activation and suppression.

  • Citric Acid Cycle
    CHEM464 / Medh, J.D. The Citric Acid Cycle Citric Acid Cycle: Central Role in Catabolism • Stage II of catabolism involves the conversion of carbohydrates, fats and aminoacids into acetylCoA • In aerobic organisms, citric acid cycle makes up the final stage of catabolism when acetyl CoA is completely oxidized to CO2. • Also called Krebs cycle or tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. • It is a central integrative pathway that harvests chemical energy from biological fuel in the form of electrons in NADH and FADH2 (oxidation is loss of electrons). • NADH and FADH2 transfer electrons via the electron transport chain to final electron acceptor, O2, to form H2O. Entry of Pyruvate into the TCA cycle • Pyruvate is formed in the cytosol as a product of glycolysis • For entry into the TCA cycle, it has to be converted to Acetyl CoA. • Oxidation of pyruvate to acetyl CoA is catalyzed by the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex in the mitochondria • Mitochondria consist of inner and outer membranes and the matrix • Enzymes of the PDH complex and the TCA cycle (except succinate dehydrogenase) are in the matrix • Pyruvate translocase is an antiporter present in the inner mitochondrial membrane that allows entry of a molecule of pyruvate in exchange for a hydroxide ion. 1 CHEM464 / Medh, J.D. The Citric Acid Cycle The Pyruvate Dehydrogenase (PDH) complex • The PDH complex consists of 3 enzymes. They are: pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1), Dihydrolipoyl transacetylase (E2) and dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase (E3). • It has 5 cofactors: CoASH, NAD+, lipoamide, TPP and FAD. CoASH and NAD+ participate stoichiometrically in the reaction, the other 3 cofactors have catalytic functions.
