Question
This molecule is mostly transported via a larger intermediate whose concentration increases via chloride shift. About one-fifth of the total amount of this molecule is transported via binding to one of four terminal amine groups. This molecule is the lightest product of PDC activity. This molecule is the smallest byproduct of the synthesis of alpha-ketoglutarate and succinyl-CoA, where two of this molecule is produced alongside (*) NADH. Increased concentrations of this molecule drive the right-shift in a dissociation curve in the Bohr effect because this neutral compound reduces the pH of blood. This linear molecule is produced by cellular respiration alongside water. For 10 points, name this three-atom gas dominant in exhaled breath. ■END■
