Chemical Reactions of

  the Krebs Cycle



 The following link points to an interactive Web page that
 illustrates the reactions of the
 Krebs
 Cycle, which is also referred to as the Citric Acid Cycle. This page
 is designed primarily to assist in understanding how these reactions
 are classified.

 By moving your pointer over the pictures of the molecules, the
 names of each compound can be displayed.  When the pointer is placed
 over an arrow, additional details regarding each reaction (type of
 reaction, catalyst used, and additional reactants and products
 required) are displayed.  In addition, the atoms that change when
 going from reactant to product are highlighted. To close the new
 window, simply 'click' anywhere.
