In the colored background rows we have the product of the previous reaction ( which is the reactive of the following reaction), next to the elements that are joined in the following reaction (INPUT), or those that are derived from the previous reaction (OUTPUT). The white rows contain the enzyme catalysing each reaction (with a number). These rows leave some space to the right to extra information, such as optimal conditions (pH, temperature, pressure ...), cofactors, the alpha of a reversible reaction (α), or whatever we want to study. As most biochemical reactions are reversible, those that are irreversible (in this case: 1, 3 and 4) are being put between brackets, because they are decisive.} \tn % Row Count 18 (+ 18) \hhline{>{\arrayrulecolor{DarkBackground}}-} \end{tabularx} \par\addvspace{1.3em} \begin{tabularx}{17.67cm}{x{4.8923 cm} x{8.6037 cm} x{3.374 cm} } \SetRowColor{DarkBackground} \mymulticolumn{3}{x{17.67cm}}{\bf\textcolor{white}{Krebs Cycle - Template Example}} \tn % Row 0 \SetRowColor{LightBackground} \seqsplit{Product/Reactive} & INPUT & OUTPUT \tn % Row Count 2 (+ 2) % Row 1 \SetRowColor{white} Step & Enzyme & Extra Info \tn % Row Count 4 (+ 2) % Row 2 \SetRowColor{LightBackground} \seqsplit{Oxalacetate} & Acetyl-CoA + H`2`O & {\emph{BLANK}} \tn % Row Count 5 (+ 1) % Row 3 \SetRowColor{white} ( {\bf{1}} ) & Citrate synthase & \tn % Row Count 6 (+ 1) % Row 4 \SetRowColor{LightBackground} Citrate & & HS-CoA + H\textasciicircum{}+\textasciicircum{} \tn % Row Count 8 (+ 2) % Row 5 \SetRowColor{white} {\bf{2}} & Aconitase & \tn % Row Count 9 (+ 1) % Row 6 \SetRowColor{LightBackground} Isocitrate & NAD\textasciicircum{}+\textasciicircum{} & \tn % Row Count 10 (+ 1) % Row 7 \SetRowColor{white} ( {\bf{3}} ) & Isocitrate dehydrogenase & \tn % Row Count 12 (+ 2) % Row 8 \SetRowColor{LightBackground} \seqsplit{alpha-ketoglutarate} & HS-CoA + NAD\textasciicircum{}+\textasciicircum{} & NADH + CO`2` \tn % Row Count 14 (+ 2) % Row 9 \SetRowColor{white} ( {\bf{4}} ) & Alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase & \tn % Row Count 16 (+ 2) % Row 10 \SetRowColor{LightBackground} \seqsplit{Succinyl-Coenzyme} A & ADP + Pi & CO`2` + NADH \tn % Row Count 18 (+ 2) % Row 11 \SetRowColor{white} {\bf{5}} & Succinyl coenzyme A synthetase & \tn % Row Count 20 (+ 2) % Row 12 \SetRowColor{LightBackground} Succinate & Ubiquinone (Q) & ATP + HS-CoA \tn % Row Count 22 (+ 2) % Row 13 \SetRowColor{white} {\bf{6}} & Succinate dehydrogenase & \tn % Row Count 24 (+ 2) % Row 14 \SetRowColor{LightBackground} Fumarate & H`2`O & QH`2` \tn % Row Count 25 (+ 1) % Row 15 \SetRowColor{white} {\bf{7}} & Fumarase & \tn % Row Count 26 (+ 1) % Row 16 \SetRowColor{LightBackground} Malate & NAD\textasciicircum{}+\textasciicircum{} & \tn % Row Count 27 (+ 1) % Row 17 \SetRowColor{white} {\bf{8}} & Malate dehydrogenase & \tn % Row Count 28 (+ 1) % Row 18 \SetRowColor{LightBackground} \seqsplit{Oxalacetate} & {\emph{BLANK}} & NADH + H\textasciicircum{}+\textasciicircum{} \tn % Row Count 30 (+ 2) \hhline{>{\arrayrulecolor{DarkBackground}}---} \end{tabularx} \par\addvspace{1.3em} \end{document}
