14Carbon label was detected in Carbon dioxide with 3 turns of citric acid cycle.
Where was the radiolable in acetyl Coenzyme A? why?
Where was the radiolable in pyruvate?why?
There was no radiolabel in acetyl coenzyme A because it is formed by the decarboxylation of pyruvate, the carboxyl group of which actually contains radiolabel. The reaction is shown below.
CH3-CO-14COO- + NAD+ + H-CoA ----> CH3-CO-CoA + NADH + 14CO2
The carboxyl group of pryvate contains the radiolabel, as shown above.

You are carrying out an experiment in the lab to study the citric acid cycle. To do this, you add 14C-labeled pyruvate at carbon 3 (this is the methyl carbon) to metabolically active mitochondria. Based on your knowledge of the citric acid cycle, what is the location of the 14C-label in oxaloacetate after one turn of the cycle? How many turns of the cycle are required to release all of the14C-label as CO2? Be sure to justify your answers by...

Acetyl-CoA labeled with C, as shown, can enter the citric acid cycle. Assuming all the acetyl-CoA enters the cycle... 1. What fraction of the label will be present in oxaloacetate at the end of one turn of the cycle? 14 2. Which carbons in the oxaloacetate formed by one turn of the cycle would contain the radioactive label? C4 C3 C2 Ci .What fraction of the original radiolabel present in the acetyl-CoA will be present in oxaloacetate at the end...
Draw the complete TCA cycle (Krebs or Citric acid cycle). Show the entry of acetyl- COA and the eight intermediates. Draw the chemical structures of each compound. Show the control point(s) in the pathway. Show where all CO2 is released and label the reactions where oxidation of carbon occurs.

You are exhaling carbon dioxide right now. Where is this carbon dioxide originating from? lost in the TCA/Citric acid cycle. From the reactions in glycolysis. From the electron transport chain in the mitochondria. You are exhaling the carbon dioxide you inhaled but didn’t use.
