Question

Choose a false statement about step 3 of the tca cycle: A.) highly thermodynamically favorable/irreversible, and is regulated by product inhibition and ATP. B.) oxidation of the alcohol to a ketone with transfers of hydride to NAD+ C.) none of these are correct D.) result of oxidative decarboxylation are the loss of CO2 and generation of NADH

Explanation / Answer

a false statement about step 3 of the tca cycle: is

C.) none of these are correct

becasue step 3 is a irreversible process and NAD+ takes a Hydride and formation of NADH takes place and the oxidative process is completed by decarboxylation with release of CO2 molecule.
