Citric acid cycle[edit]

Reason: Inaccurate. Oxalosuccinate is only formed in some prokaryotes, and I assume the observed formation of FADH2 was an artifact of early techniques that hydrolysed the membrane-bound enzyme, QH2 is now known to be the product. FAD is misspelt.

Replace with Image:Citric acid cycle with aconitate.svg, which is currently used in citric acid cycle. It's a very nice diagram, which is why is has gone through a number of updates (the latest, I note, by Narayanese) instead of being ditched altogether.--ragesoss (talk) 21:24, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delist and Replace - everything after "inaccurate" went waaaay over my head, but I'm AGF. :) Thanks for working on this. Intothewoods29 (talk) 23:43, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delist and replace Per Intothewoods. 'Nuff said.--HereToHelp ^{(talk to me)} 01:33, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Replace, also, if you're gonna argue about FADH2 vs QH2, then you can go ahead and change succinate dehydrogenase in the diagram to Succinate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, because that's the actual enzyme complex in which FADH2 is covalently bound. Succinate dehydrogenase changes FAD to FADH2, but it's the fact that it's part of Succinate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase that causes the electrons to be subsequently transferred to coenzyme Q. You can't fix one without fixing the other. In fact, biologically speaking, there is no such thing as a succinate dehydrogenase enzyme. It's all part of subunit A of Succinate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase --AutoGyro (talk) 01:49, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I changed it to succinic dehydrogenase, as that is unambiguous and I'm not so sure succinate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase is an accepted name (it's a systematic name). Anything else I've missed? Narayanese (talk) 20:05, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's the accepted name per here [1], but more simple and common name is just "mitochondrial complex II." Either way, succinate dehydrogenase is not correct. It doesn't even exist on its own. --AutoGyro (talk) 01:55, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Which version? Image:Citric acid cycle with aconitate 2.svg ("updated 1") is the one that is currently used in citric acid cycle, should I go with that instead? MER-C 05:54, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'd go with Citric acid cycle with aconitate 2.svg. Narayanese (talk) 08:53, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
