Question
Aconitase catalyzes the reaction: citrate ↔ Hisocitrate
The standard free energy change, ΔG°′, for this reaction is +6.3 kJ/mol.
However, the observed free energy change (ΔG) for this reaction in mammalian mitochondria at 25°C is ∼0 kJ>mol (Table 13.2).
(a) Calculate the ratio of [isocitrate]>[citrate] in mitochondria.
(b) Is this reaction likely to be a control point for the citric acid cycle? Why
or why not?
