Question

What is TCA cycle? Describe its different steps.

Answer 1

Once fed into the TCA cycle, acetyl CoA is converted into carbon dioxideand energy. The TCA cycle consists of eight steps catalyzed by eight different enzymes (see Figure). The cycle is initiated (1) when acetyl CoA reacts with the compound oxaloacetate to form citrate and to release coenzyme A (CoA-SH).
