|
substrate level phosphorylation
glycolysis, tca |
|
oxidative phosphorylation
|
the electron transport chain uses oxygen coupled to phoshorylation
|
|
substrate level phosphorylation
|
uses high energy substrates
|
|
"membrane process"
|
proteins of the ETC are found embedded in the inner membrane
|
|
each carrier undergoes ___ followed by ____. the final accepter is o2 when it gets __, forming H20
|
reduction, oxidation
reduced |
|
oxidations
H atoms hydride H |
invovlve the removal of H as either:
proton + e- proton + 2e- |
|
** Flavin:
Nicotinic: |
** Flavin:2hs + 2es are released
Nicotinic: 2es but only 1 H+ - the remaining H+ is released as a proton |
|
E not prime
|
is the standard redox potential at a ph of 7
|
|
the change in free energy for the transfer of e's
|
equation:
written as reductions |
|
H+s are being pumped from ___ to ___

FMN/FMNH2 cyt c Fe 3/Fe 2 1/2 O2/H2o |
|
the more negative the delta E not is:
|
the greater tendancy for the reduced form to dominate
|
