Do you know any step in the TCA cycle where there is substrate level phosphorylation. Which one?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In an intermediate reaction of TCA cycle, succinyl Co-A is converted to succinic acid and one GTP molecue is synthesised through substance level phosphorylation.

GTP formed in this reaction gives rise to ATP as follows
`GTPtoADPtoGDPtoATP`
