Cellular Respiration
Electron transport chain
-
In complex 4, this reduced cytochrome c oxidizes Oxygen to produce Water
-
In complex 3, this Ubiquinol is oxidizes to Ubiquinone in turn reducing cytochrome c, which is another electron carrier
-
In complex 1, NADH is oxidized to NAD, and the 2 electrons produced are used to reduce Flavin mononucleotide(FMN) which further transfers these electrons via Fe-S clusters eventually transferring it to an electron carrier called Ubiquinone(Q) which gets converted to Ubiquinol.

-
Citrate to Isocitrate
-
Intermediate is cis-Aconitate and is formed by dehydration of Citrate which is hydrated to form Isocitrate
6 NADH, 2 FADH2, 2 GTP, 6 CO2 obtained after TCA cycle

Gluconeogenesis
Major substrates
Lactate, pyruvate, glucogenic amino acids , propionate, glycerol
-
Steps (from Pyruvate)
Pyruvate is converted to Oxaloacetate in Mitochondria by enzyme Pyruvate carboxylase which is then converted to Malate. This Malate can be transported to the cytosol where it is reconverted to Oxaloacetate
-
-
Fructose 1,6bisphosphate to Fructose 6 phosphate
Fructose 1,6 bisphosphatase
-
Glucose 6 phosphate enters the smooth ER, gets converted to Glucose by Glucose 6 phosphatase, exits the ER, exits the cell via GLUT2 and enters blood

Hormones involved
Glucagon, Norepinephrine, Epinephrine, etc.
Glycogenesis
-
-
-
-
UDP-Glucose binds to special protein called Glycogenin and UDP is released. Next UDP-Glucose comes in, UDP is cleaved and glucose is linked to the next glucose via 1-4 glycosidic bond. This chain grows . UDP-Glucose is continuously added by Glycogen Synthase
There is another enzyme called the Branching enzyme which breaks α-1,4 glycoside bonds and transfers these to a branch by creating α-1,6 glycoside bonds
