The selectively permeable inner membrane segregates the intermediates and enzymes of cytosolic metabolic pathways from those of metabolic processes occurring in the matrix. However, specific transporters carry pyruvate, fatty acids, and amino acids or their -keto derivatives into the matrix for access to the machinery of the citric acid cycle. ADP and Pi are specifically transported into the matrix as newly synthesized ATP is transported out. Electrons Are Funneled to Universal Electron Acceptors Oxidative phosphorylation begins with the entry of electrons into the respiratory chain. Most of these electrons arise from the action of dehydrogenases that collect electrons from catabolic pathways and funnel them into universal electron acceptors—nicotinamide nucleotides (NAD or NADP) or flavin nucleotides (FMN or FAD). Nicotinamide nucleotide–linked dehydrogenases catalyze reversible reactions of the following general types: Reduced substrate NAD oxidized substrate NADH H Reduced substrate NADP oxidized substrate NADPH H Most dehydrogenases that act in catabolism are specific for NAD as electron acceptor (Table 19–1). Some are yz yz in the cytosol, others are in mitochondria, and still others have mitochondrial and cytosolic isozymes. NAD-linked dehydrogenases remove two hydrogen atoms from their substrates. One of these is transferred as a hydride ion (: H) to NAD; the other is released as H in the medium (see Fig. 13–15). NADH and NADPH are water-soluble electron carriers that associate reversibly with dehydrogenases. NADH carries electrons from catabolic reactions to their point of entry into the respiratory chain, the NADH dehydrogenase complex described below. NADPH generally supplies electrons to anabolic reactions. Cells maintain separate pools of NADPH and NADH, with different redox potentials. This is accomplished by holding the ratios of [reduced form]/[oxidized form] relatively high for NADPH and relatively low for NADH. Neither NADH nor NADPH can cross the inner mitochondrial membrane, but the electrons they carry can be shuttled across indirectly, as we shall see. Flavoproteins contain a very tightly, sometimes covalently, bound flavin nucleotide, either FMN or FAD (see Fig. 13–18). The oxidized flavin nucleotide can accept either one electron (yielding the semiquinone form) or two (yielding FADH2 or FMNH2). Electron transfer occurs because the flavoprotein has a higher reduction potential than the compound oxidized. The standard reduction potential of a flavin nucleotide, unlike that of NAD or NADP, depends on the protein with which it is associated. Local interactions with functional groups in the protein distort the electron orbitals in the flavin ring, changing the relative stabilities of oxidized and reduced forms.
