Cleavage
Phase 3 of glycolysis is ______
Energy liberation
Metabolic cycle
particular molecules enter while others leave, involving a series of organic molecules regenerated with each cycle
The metabolic cycle happens in the _______
Citric acid cycle
In stage four: oxidative phosphorylation, high energy electrons are removed from ____ and ____ to make _____
NADH, FADH2, ATP
Chemiosmosis
Chemical synthesis of ATP as a result of pushing H+ across a membrane
energy conversion
H+ electrochemical gradient or proton motive force converted to chemical bond energy in ATP
Racker and Stoeckenius
confirmed ATP uses an H+ electrochemical gradient
warburg effect
cancer cells preferentially use glycolysis while decreasing oxidative phosphorylation
Glycolytic enzymes overexpressed in ____ of all types of cancers
80%
caused by genetic and environmental factors-
mutations and low oxygen
anaerobic metabolism
for environments that lack oxygen or during oxygen dificits
2 strategies of anaerobic metabolism
-use substrate other than O2 as final electron acceptor in electron transport chain
-produce ATP only via subsrate-level phosphorylation
other accecptors of anaerobic metabolism
- E. coli uses nitrate (NO3-) under anaerobic conditions
-Makes ATP via chemiosmosis even under aerobic conditions
primary metabolism
essential for cell structure and function
Secondary metabolism
synthesis of secondary metabolites that are not necessary for cell structure and growth

competition
4 categories of secondary metabolism
Phenolics, Alkaloids, Terpenoids, Polyketides
Phenolics
