FADH2 donates
electrons to
Complex II
(Succinate
Dehydrogenase)
NADH donates
electrons to
Complex I
(NADH
Dehydrogenase)
The poison
cyanide prevents
transfer of
electrons to
oxygen
Cytochromes
are electron
carriers with a
heme prosthetic
group
Protons are
pumped from the
matrix into the
intermembrane
space
Formation of
H+ Gradient
Flow of protons
through ATP
synthase powers
ATP production
The poison
arsenic prevents
the buildup of the
H+ gradient
The inner
mitochondrial
membrane is
impermeable to
H+, which can
only pass through
the ATP synthase
ATP Synthase
H+ ions cause the
rotor of ATP
synthase to spin
The internal rod
also spins as a
result of rotor
movement
Sites in the catalytic
knob are activated to
catalyze ATP
production
Oxidative Phosphorylation
• Production of ATP as a result of electron transfer
through carriers in the Electron Transport Chain
– Electrons pass through a set of membrane-associated
carriers by a series of redox reactions
– Energy from electron transport powers the active
transport of H+ to the intermembrane compartment of the
mitochondrion, building a concentration gradient
– Chemiosmosis: Diffusion of hydrogen ions (H+) through
the differentially permeable inner mitochondrial
membrane, resulting in ATP production
• H+ can only cross the membrane into the mitochondrial
matrix through the pores of an ATP-synthesizing enzyme
• Movement of H+ through the enzyme provides energy for
ATP synthesis

Regulation of
Glycolysis
• Phosphofructokinase is
– allosterically inhibited
by ATP
– allosterically activated
by ADP or AMP
– inhibited by citrate
Regulation of the Citric Acid Cycle
• Isocitrate dehydrogenase
– responds to negative
feedback from NADH
and H+ and ATP
– is activated by ADP and
NAD+
Regulation of
Acetyl-CoA
• Entering the Citric Acid
Cycle
– Citrate synthase (1)
is inhibited by ATP
or NADH
• Use in Fatty Acid
Synthesis
– Fatty Acid synthase (2)
is stimulated by Citrate
