The Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle in Plant Mitochondria: Its Operation and Regulation

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Encyclopedia of Plant Physiology ((PLANT,volume 18))

Abstract

A major role of plant mitochondria is to generate usable energy required for cellular processes. This is achieved by oxidizing organic acids in the Krebs or tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle (Fig. 1) and transferring the reducing equivalents, via the electron transfer chain, to molecular oxygen. During the latter process ADP is phosphorylated to ATP. However, plant mitochondrial function is not as simple as that. First, other substrates can be oxidized [e.g., external (cytoplasmic) NADH, fatty acids and amino acids, glutamate, and glycine.] Second, plant mitochondria possess nonphosphorylating pathways such as the cyanide-insensitive, alternative oxidase and the rotenone-insensitive by-pass for oxidation of intramitochondrial NADH (see Chap. 8 and Hanson and Day 1980). The combination of these two pathways does not lead to the formation of any ATP. Third, other enzymes can play an important part in mitochondrial function, e.g., NAD-malic enzyme and aspartate aminotransferase.
