1st law of thermodynamics
Energy can not be created or destroyed but can change form.
ACR
Aerobic Cellular Respiration
Steps of ACR
#1 Glycolysis #2 Acetyl CoA formations #3 Krebs Cycle/TCA/ Citric Acid Cycle #4 Electron Transport Chain
Macromolecules conversion to energy
1 Glucose- 36 ATP 1Triglyceride- 129 ATP 1 amino acid- minimal ATP's
Anabolic RXN require?
ATP
Catabolic RXN?
Produce ATP
Key players in ACR
Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Water, Electrons, Hyrdrogen
FAD comes from
B vitamins; Riboflavin
FAD+2e-+2H+=
FADH2-Full
ATP
Adenosine Triphosphate
PO4
(Pi) PO4
ATP= ADP+?=?
ATP=ADP+Pi = dephosphorylation
ADP+ Pi Through ACR = ATP
Phosphorylation
ATP-> ADP+Pi=
dephosphorylation
Light RXN-
In thylokoid in Chloroplast
Cyclic RXN
Needs more ATP then NADPH to run calvin cycle
Calvin Cycle
B phases
Chloroplast->
Stroma (space)
Phase #1
Carbon Fixation
Phase 2
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
redox reaction is?
electron transfers during RXN
Oxidation
Loss of electron from one substance to another.
Reduction
addition of electron from one substance to another
oxidizing agent
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
oxidative phosphorylation
electron transport chain and chemiosmosis
substrate level phosphorlyation
direct phosphoralysation of ADP
Enzymes to what to Hydrogen atoms
they remove them/ from the substrate.
