D) the a-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Aconitase is not a control point of the citric acid cycle. Control points in the citric acid cycle are enzyme-catalyzed reactions that are regulated and therefore have a significant impact on the overall flux of the cycle. Citrate synthase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, and the α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex are all control points of the cycle.
