Question

Explain how fluoroacetate can inhibit the Krebs cycle

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Hey.,

Here is your answer dear....

Fluoroacetate disrupts the citric acid cycle (also known as the Krebs cycle) by combining with coenzyme A to form fluoroacetyl CoA, which reacts with citrate synthase to produce fluorocitrate which binds very tightly to aconitase, thereby halting the citric acid cycle.

I hope it's helpful for u....

Thanks

Answer 2

fluoro acetate is one of the molecule which inhibits the crab cycle.

Explanation:

• fluoroacetate reacts with coenzyme a to form fluoroacetyl CoA.

• this molecule then reacts with citric acid synthase enzyme to produce fluoroacetyl citrate.

• The fluro citrate inhibits the aconitase enzyme by tightly attaching to it and resulting in a spatial rearrangement of the molecule. As a result of this the rest of the citric acid cycle stops due to the dearrangement of the  molecule.
