1
1st acetly CoA ( 2-c compound) binds with
oxaloacetate a 4-c-compound, forming citrate a 6-c-compund
2
2nd citrate ( 6-c-compound)gets oxidized and..
NAD+ removed e- from citrate and gets reduced to NADH, and a CO2 is released. so the 6c compound is now a 5c compund
3
3rd the 5c compound..
gets oxidized by NAD+ removing e-, then NAD+ gets reduced to NADH and another CO2 is released. now the 5c compound is now a 4c compound
4
4th the 4-c compound...
gets oxidized
5
5th GDP gets phosphorylated ...
to GTP, and GTP is used to phosphorylated GDP to ATP
6
6th FAD oxidizes to 4-c compound and gets reduced...
to FADH2,
7
then 4-c compound oxidized again...
by NAD+ which gets reduced to NADH, and H2O enters
