Which of the following is NOT correct regarding the glycerophosphate shuttle?
A)Glycerol-3-phosphate is translocated across the inner mitochondrial membrane into the matrix.
B)There are 2 distinct forms of glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in cells with this shuttle.
C)It results in the net transfer of electrons to the electron-transport chain from NADH in the cytosol.
D)Electrons derived from this shuttle enter the electron-transport chain at UQ.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The glycerophosphate shuttle does not involve the translocation of glycerol-3-phosphate across the inner mitochondrial membrane. Instead, it involves the transfer of electrons from NADH in the cytosol to FADH2 within the mitochondria, which then enter the electron transport chain.
