First Energy Crisis
|
first organisms got their energy from preformed organic molecules (chemoheterotrophs).
they lived on free ATP. First Energy Crisis : NO MORE ATP |
|
Solution to Energy Crisis 1
|
Glycolysis - breaking down glucose to make ATP
|
|
Glycolysis
|
Input:
2 NAD 2 ATP glucose Output: 2 NADH 4 ATP 2 pyruvate |
|
Fermentation
|
regenerate NAD+ to keep glycolysis going. alcohol and lactic acid fermentation.
|
|
Mechanisms for Hydrogen Ion Surplus:
|
1) Proton Pump - require ATP
2)Electron Transport Chain - use e- through electron transport chain and use energy to transport H+ out 3) Chemiosmosis - create H+ gradient to drive H+ back to produce ATP |
|
Second Energy Crisis:
|
Ran out of glucose - organisms that could make their own sugars had an advantage. AUTOTROPHS
|
|
Oxygen Revolution
|
Plants generated enough oxygen to make the atmosphere O2 rich. only some organisms surviced. led to the rise of heterotrophs.
|
|
Heterotrophs:
|
Oxidatvie Metabolism: Krebs Cycle and Oxidative Phosphorylation - require oxygen and gets rid of the toxic problem of too much oxygen created by plants
|
|
Krebs Cycle:
|
input:
acetyl CoA output: 6 NADH 30 ATP 6 FADH2 |
|
junction between glycolysis and Krebs Cycle:
|
the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl CoA
|
|
how many cycles of the Krebs Cycle?
|
1 time for each pyruvate
2 times for each glucose |
|
What happens to Kreb's Cycle products?
|
fed through the electron transport chain where oxygen is the final electron acceptor. makes water
|
|
electron transport chain
|
at each point in the electron transport chain, H+ are pumped into intermembrane space creating a proton gradient which pushes the H+ back making lots of ATP (30) --total 34 ATP for electron transport (other 4 from FADH2)
|
|
how do you switch from glycolysis to oxidatvie phosphorylation?
|
pyruvate responds to oxygen availability
|
|
Is glucose the only fuel you can use for metabolism?
|
No - can use carbs, fat, protein.
|
|
Respiratory Quotient
|
CO2 formed / O2 used --> can use the different components becuase fats/carbs/proteins enter the cycle at different places. Carbs are preferred.
carbs - 100 fat -.71 protein (urea) -.81 protein (uric acid) - .74 |
|
Controlling Cellular respiration....
|
phosphofructokinase - responds to negative feedback. Inhibited by ATP ( if you have enough, cycle slows down). Inhibited by citrate from the Krebs cycle. AMP(from the breakdown of ATP) will stimulate phosphofructokinase
