Question
- Compare and contrast biochemical pathways.
- Describe the chemistry of the last three steps of the TCA.
- Describe the chemistry of the first three steps of β-oxidation.
- Explain how these pathways are similar and how they differ in terms of their chemistry, the involvement of coenzymes and the fate of the electrons.
- Describe the two connections between the urea cycle and the citric acid cycle
