Which of the following events does not occur during Krebs Cycle? Citrate synthase catalyzers the transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl coenzyme A to oxaloacetate to form citrate. Isocitrate dehydrogenase converts citrate to its isomer isocitrate. A carbon dioxide is released when alpha-ketoglutarate is oxidized to succinyl coenzyme A. The energy released from the conversion of succinyl coenzyme A to succinate is used to transfer a phosphate group to ADP to form ATP. During Krebs Cycle, succinate is oxidized to fumarate which is coupled to the reduction of FAD to FADH2. During electron transport, the electrons from FADH2 are transferred to coenzyme Q. Which of the following catalyzes these reactions? NADH dehydrogenase Succinate dehydrogenase FADH2 hydrogenase NADH hydrogenase reductase

Researchers found that cancer cells survived on which has the chemical formula C6H12O6, to produce energy only through the anaerobic process called Druing which one C6H1206 molecule with six carbon atoms is converted into molecules of pyruvate, each of which contains three carbon atoms. If you deprive cancer cells of C6H12O6 , the metabolism should switch to ketone bodies provided by But cancer cells are metabolically not able to switch to ketone bodies as fuel because they can only survive on C6H1206 . All of other cells in human bodies can use either C6H1206 or ketone bodies. Lacking this metabolic flexibility, cancer cells go in starvation. In other words, eating less won't starve cancer, but eating "healthy" might. "Healthy" here refers to a low-sugar or low carb, -rich and fat-rich ketogenic diet.
