Energy Capture in Respiratory Chain| Biologic Oxidation

In this article we will discuss about the Energy Capture in Respiratory Chain in Mitochondria. 1. When substrates are oxidized through an NAD-linked dehydrogenase, 3 mol inorĀ­ganic phosphate are incorporated into 3 mol of ADP to form 3 mol of ATP per half mol of O2 (1/2 O2) consumed, i.e. the P; O ratio = 3. 2. When a substrate [...]
