Which of the following is the first compound generated in the citric acid cycle?

  1. Oxaloacetate
  2. Citrate
  3. Isocitrate
  4. None of the above

hintHint:

Citric acid is the first compound generated in the citric acid cycle.

The correct answer is: Citrate


    • Beginning with the transfer of the two-carbon acetyl group from acetyl CoA to the four-carbon acceptor molecule (oxalo acetate), the citric acid cycle, commonly known as the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle) or the Krebs cycle, begins (citrate).
    • Citrate is the first compound formed in the citric acid cycle.
