ATP and Energy |
Phosphate bonds hold the energy of ATP |
|
ATP |
... |
|
ADP |
... |
|
Catalysts |
... |
|
Enzymes, work two ways |
... |
|
Cofactors |
... |
|
Organic molecules |
.... |
|
Apoenzymes |
enzymes are not active until the cofactors are present |
|
Holoenzymes |
Enzymes that have their cofactors present are active |
|
Enzyme Inhibitors |
two kinds: competitive and noncompetitive |
|
Non- competitive inhibitor |
called an allosteric site... |
|
competitive inhibitor |
... |
|
NAD+ and NADH |
Know the process of how the electron transfers... |
|
Metabolic Classification |
by their metabolic potential - how do they make their energy? - What are their waste products? - How do they obtain their carbon that is used to build their cells? |
|
Metab. Class. cont: Energy Sources |
Chemotroph= microbe that derives its energy from chemicals ( organic or inorganic) Phototroph= microbe that derives its energy from light |
|
Cont... Carbon sources - 2 and definition |
Heterotroph= microbe that uses organic carbon as its carbon source autotroph = microbe that uses inorganic carbon(CO2) as its carbon source |
|
Metabolism - Two classes |
1) Fermentation: substrate-level phosphorylation where ATP is produced directly from an energy-rich intermediate 2) Respiration: oxidation phosphorylation, ATP is produced from a proton-motive force by via a transfer of electrons |
|
Respiration process |
3 stages... complex process |
|
Fermentation process |
Glycolysis only |
|
Carbohydrate Metabolism |
Catalysis |
|
Glycolysis - AKA Embden-Meyerhof Pathway |
Glucose.... |
|
Acetyl-CoA |
is a carrier of a two carbon molecule that is easily transferred to another molecule |
|
The Krebs Cycle - aka TCA; citric acid cycle |
converts acetyl-CoA to CO2 - produces 2 ATP, 6 NADH, and 2 FADH2 Cycle = continually operates with the addition of acetyl-CoA |
