Siklus asam sitrat: Perbedaan antara revisi

== Sekilas proses ==

* Siklus asam sitrat dimulai dengan [[asetil-KoA]] yang mengirimkan [[gugus fungsional|gugus]] [[asetil]] yang mempunyai dua [[atom]] [[karbon]], ke [[senyawa organik|senyawa]] [[asam oksaloasetat]] yang memiliki [[molekul]] dengan empat atom karbon, dan membentuk [[asam sitrat]] dengan enam atom karbon.

* The citrate then goes through a series of chemical transformations, losing two [[carboxyl]] groups as CO₂. The carbons lost as CO₂ originate from what was oxaloacetate, not directly from acetyl-CoA. The carbons donated by acetyl-CoA become part of the oxaloacetate carbon backbone after the first turn of the citric acid cycle. Loss of the acetyl-CoA-donated carbons as CO₂ requires several turns of the citric acid cycle. However, because of the role of the citric acid cycle in anabolism, they may not be lost since many TCA cycle intermediates are also used as precursors for the biosynthesis of other molecules.<ref>Wolfe RR, Jahoor F.

* At the end of each cycle, the four-carbon oxaloacetate has been regenerated, and the cycle continues.
