Reduction
|
|
Phase 3
|
Regeneration of RuBP by CO2 acceptor
|
|
ACR happens in
|
both plans and animals
|
|
Metabolic pathways
|
starts with a molecule and through different steps each molecule is catalyzed by a specific enzyme.
|
|
Catobolic pathways
|
break down complex molecules to release their energy (main pathway of ACR)
|
|
Anabolic pathways
|
consume energy to build complex molecules (Also called biosynthetic pathways)
|
|
energy
|
capacity to cause change/do work.
|
|
Thermodynamics
|
study of energy transformation that occur in a collection of matter.
|
|
The Second law of thermodynamics
|
every energy transfer or transformation increases disorder (entropy) of the universe.
|
|
entropy
|
measure of disorder and randomness.
|
|
spontaneous
|
means it can occur on its own (i.e. a piece of metal rusting).
|
|
free energy
|
portion of a systems energy that can perform work when temperature and pressure are uniform throughout system.
|
|
equilibrium
|
maximum stability
|
|
exergonic
|
"energy outward" net release of free energy.
|
|
endergonic
|
absorbs free energy
|
|
living
|
not being at equilibrium with your environment
|
|
ATP contains?
|
the sugar ribose, w/nitrogenous bases adenine, and chain of three phosphate groups Pi.
|
|
Phosphate groups are removed by?
|
Hydrolysis (water splitting)
|
|
Phosphorylated
|
term applied to recipient of phosphate group. i.e. ATP-->ADP+Pi&some other molecule.
|
|
energy coupling
|
combing exergonic processes to drive endergonic processes.
|
|
Enzyme
|
macromolecule that acts as a catalyst, speeds up a rxn but isn't consumed, lowers activation energy and basically speeds up the RXN.
|
|
Substrate
|
the molecule or molecules that an enzyme acts on
|
|
Active site
|
restricted and specific area of the enzyme that binds to the substrate.
|
|
cofactors
|
many enzymes require non protein helpers for catalytic activities. (?)
|
|
coenzyme
|
organic cofactors (?)
|
|
competitive inhibitors
|
block substrates from entering active site and reduce productivity.
|
|
How do you get rid of competitive inhibitors?
|
You can increase the concentrations of substrate so when the active sites are available substrates and not inhibitors gain entry.
|
|
Non-competitive inhibitors
|
don't bind to active site; bind to a different part of te cell which causes shape change so active site is less affective
|
|
If an inhibitor binds to and enzyme covalently what can happen?
|
It can be irreversibly.
|
|
Allosteric regulation
|
a proteins function at one site is affected by the binds of regulatory molecules to a separate site. IT either stimulates or inhibits enzyme activity.
|
|
cooperativity
|
amplifies response of enzymes to subtrates and occurs when enzymes has two or more sub units and induced fit of one affects the other subunits ability to inhibit or stimulate activity.
|
|
feedback inhibition
|
metabolic pathway(s) is/are switched off by the inhibitory binding of its end products to an enzyme that acts early in a pathway.
|
|
fermentation?
|
way of degrading sugars w/o oxygen. (not the most efficient way)
|
|
Aerobic Cellular Respiration?
|
most efficient catabolic pathway, oxygen is consumed as a reactant along with organic fuel
|
|
Anerobic respiration
|
Same as ACR without O2 getting consumed. (not as efficient at all)
|
|
Glucose (chemical equation ?)
|
C6H12O6
|
|
Break down of one mole of glucose produces how much energy?
|
-689 Kcal/mol

|
|
Oxidation
|
Loss of electron from one substance to another.
|
|

accepts the electrons
|
|
NAD+
|
electron acceptor/ carrier
|
|
electron transport chain occurs where
|
mitochondria
|
|
glycolysis occurs where
|
occurs in the cytosol begins by breaking down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate
|
|
citric acid cycle takes place where
|
in the mitochondria matrix of eukaryotic cells or cytosol of prokaryotes. completes break down of glucose by oxidizing a derivative of pyruvate to CO2
|
|
