Oxidative reaction (loss of e) with reduction reaction (gain of e) |
What is redox reaction |
|
By oxidative phosphorylation |
How do cells produce energy? |
|
•ETC •Chemiosmosis |
Oxidative phosphorylation components: |
|
Formation of ATP by re-oxidation of (NADH & FADH2) in presence of oxygen |
Oxidative phosphorylation is: |
|
Co-enzyme derived from vitamin |
What is (NADH & FADH2)? |
|
•Outer membrane •Inner membrane •Intermembrane space |
Mitochondria structure: |
|
Cytoplasm: Glycolysis & fermentation Mitochondrial matrix: TCA cycle & pyruvate oxidation Inner membrane of mitochondria: ETC |
Eukaryotes energy pathway location: |
|
•Mitochondria 85-90% OP •Glycolysis and TCA 10-15% by substrate level phosphorylation |
ATP synthesis sites, percentage of production and mechanism: |
|
Production of ATP by taking away a phosphate group from a substrate and binding it to ADP under influence of enzyme |
What is substrate level phosphorylation? |
|
Glycolysis & TCA |
Sites of NADH&FADH2 |
|
Low to high electron affinity |
ETC is organized in accordance of |
|
Oxygen |
Who is the final acceptor in the ETC? |
|
•NADH - CoQ reductase •Succinate dehydrogenase •Cytochrome C reductase •Cytochrome C oxidase •ATP synthase |
ETC membrane bound components: |
|
•Ubiquinone (Q) •Cytochrome C |
ETC mobile component: |
|
process in which energy from a proton gradient is used to make ATP |
What is chemiosmosis? |
|
There is a coupling between oxidation and phosphorylation |
What is the chemiosmotic hypothesis? |
|
1+3+4 |
Transport of H to intermembrane space by complex: |
|
Complex 5 ATP synthase due to proton motive force |
ATP synthesis is done in: |
|
•F0= proton transport •F1= synthesis of ATP |
ATP synthase subunits: |
|
3 proton |
How many proton should enter the ATP synthase to produce one ATP? |
|
Uncouplers |
What increases the permeability of inner membrane of the mitochondria? |
|
Thermogenin, brown adipose of newborn babies. |
Example of uncouplers and where we can find it ? |
|
High doses of aspirin works as uncoupler thus releasing a lot of heat. |
Why aspiring in very high doses causes fever ? |
|
If complex 3 or 4 were inhibited |
When will ETC cycle be inhibited? |
|
1. Rotenone + Amytal 3. Antimycin A 4. Cyanide + CO + Azide 5. Oligomycin |
Name each complex inhibitors: |
|
No |
Are there inhibitors for complex 2 ? |
|
•ETC inhibited •ATP decreases •pH decreases(LA) •Hypoxic cell swell •Enzymes leak=cell death |
What happens if a tissue got no O2? |
|
•Leigh disease •Severe lactic acidosis •Neurological abnormalities |
Dysfunction in OP? |
|
•ETC is inhibited •Tissue asphyxia(CNS) |
In case of inhalation of cyanide? |
