Substrate level phosphorylation occurs during which step of Krebs' cycle?
Options:
Answer:
A
Solution:
Succinyl co-A (4C) undergoes hydration (addition of water) to form Succinic acid (4C) in the presence of enzyme Succinyl thiokinase. The energy liberated in this reaction is used to combine GDP & iP to form GTP (Guanosine triphosphate). GTP is relatively unstable and is soon transformed to ATP using ADP. Thus ATP is generated by substrate level phosphorylation (without ETS)
