If isolated mitochondria are incubated with a source of electrons such as succinate, but without oxygen, electrons enter the respiratory chain, reducing each of the electron carriers almost completely. When oxygen is then introduced, the carriers become oxidized at different rates (Figure Q14–1). How does this result allow you to order the electron carriers in the respiratory chain? What is their order?

TABLE 3-LACTATE PRODUCTION IN FORTIFIED HEMOLYSATES OF HUMAN ERYTHROCYTES* Substrate Glucose Glucose Lactate production† No. of experiments pH 6 7.1 2.03 ± 0.91 6 7.8 4.76 ± 1.09 7-1 10-73 +1-88 5 7.8 12.34 ±2.92 5 7.0 7-15±0.73 5 7-7 (b)( ) In mature erythrocytes (red blood cells) the end product of glycolysis is lactate because of the absence of mitochondria. On the right is a table comparing the rate of lac- tate production in hemolysates (lysed cells) of human RBCs as a function of pH with dif- ferent substrates introduced into the glyco- lytic pathway. The hemolysate was fortified with 30 μmoles substrate, 7.5 μmoles MgCl2, 10 μmoles disodium phosphate, 1.5 μmoles NAD and 5 μmoles ATP in a volume of 5 mL. The rate of lactate production is given as μmoles of lactate/g Hb/hr at 37° C, buffered to either pH 7.1 or 7.8, as indicated. According to the results in the table which glycolytic enzyme is rate-limiting? Explain. Glucose-6-phosphate Glucose-6-phosphate Fructose-1,6-diphosphate…
