Cellular Respiration Cellular Respiration • Cellular respiration is… The process by which a cell breaks down sugar or other organic compounds to release energy used for cellular work; may be anaerobic or aerobic, depending on the availability of oxygen. Aerobic respiration can be summarized by the following formula: Biology 11 A. Allen C6H12O6 + 6O2 6H20 + 6CO2 + energy (36 ATP) 1 2 http://fusionanomaly.net/mitochondria.html Activation Energy Glycolysis • Glycolysis is the first stage of cellular respiration. • Glycolysis has two parts; Glycolysis I & Glycolysis II. In order to ‘kick-start’ glycolysis I, activation energy is required (ATP). Sugar is split into two G3Ps. In glycolysis II, G3P is oxidized and ATP is produced. The overall pathway gets its name from this sugar splitting (glyco = sugar, lysis = split). • Glycolysis occurs in the cytosol (The fluid portion of the cytoplasm, outside the organelles ). 4 3 Glucose 6-C Coenzyme Glycolysis I 1 • ATP ADP • A substance that enhances or is necessary for the action of enzymes. They are generally much smaller than enzymes themselves. NAD (Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme that serves and an electron carrier. Glycolysis I is a series of endergonic reactions Glucose ~P “glucose-6-phosphate” 6-C, 1 Phosphate 1. Glucose enters the cell by diffusion 3 2. ATP donates a phosphate to the substrate. (1 ATP used) Glucose-6-phosphate is produced. Fructose~P “fructose-6-phosphate” 6-C, 1 Phosphate 3. Glucose-6-phosphate is rearranged to fructose-6-phosphate (another 6-C sugar) ATP 4 4. another ATP donates its phosphate (1 ATP used). Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is produced.

The fructose 1,6 bisphosphate molecule is split into 2 G3Ps (glyceraldehyde 3phosphate), a 3-carbon compound. Note G3P is also known as glyceraldehyde 3phosphate (G3P) **Glycolysis I …** •2 ATP (2 ATP’s are used.) 7 1 Glycolysis II G3P • (3-C, 1 phosphate) NAD+ 1 Pi NADH (3-C, 2 phosphates) ADP is formed). The oxidized G3P then accepts a Pi from the cytosol. 1,3 bisphosphoglyerate (BPG) is formed ATP 2. ADP is phosphorylated to ATP (x2) as it 3-phosphoglycerate (3-C, 1 phosphate) X2 Substrate Level Phosphorylation 1. G3P is oxidized. NAD takes electrons (NADH 1,3 bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) 2 In Glycolysis II, each G3P (2 from 1 molecule of glucose) is oxidized to release energy. This process is exergonic. 2-phosphoglycerate (3-C, 1 phosphate) removes the phosphate from the substrate. 3-phosphoglycerate is formed. (substrate level phosphorylation: when ADP removes Pi from the substrate to form ATP) • The direct phosphate transfer of phosphate from an organic molecule to ADP. IMPORTANT! 3. 3-phosphoglycerate is rearranged to 2- 3 phosphoglycerate which is then rearranged to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP). Water is given off in this process. H2O phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) ADP 4. PEP gives a phosphate to ADP to make ATP. Pyruvate (AKA Pyruvic acid) is formed.

Therefore, the above biochemical pathways run twice for every molecule of glucose! Pyruvate Oxidation ONLY HAPPENS IF O2 is present! 1. The two pyruvate from glycolysis diffuse into the mitochondrion’s matrix. Here, it is oxidized by NAD+ (which is reduced to NADH NADH)) to make acetate,, a 2acetate 2-carbon compound. (The carbon is lost in the form of CO2) 1 CO2 Acetate (Acetic acid ) (2-C) 2 X2 Coenzyme A (or ‘CoA’) acetyl coenzyme A (or ‘acetyl coA’) Animation **Pyruvate Oxidation results in a net gain of …** •2 NADH.

Coenzyme A is recycled for further use. Citrate is rearranged to isocitrate (6-C) NAD accepts hydrogens from isocitrate which is therefore oxidized. One molecule of CO2 is given off as isocitrate loses one carbon. α-ketoglutarate (5-C) is formed. α -ketoglutarate (5-C) is oxidized to succinyl Co-A (4-C). A CO2 is removed, coenzyme A is added, and 2 hydrogen atoms reduced NAD to NADH. Succinyl C0-A is produced. Succinyl Co-A (4-C) is converted to succinate (4-C). A Pi from the matrix displaces C0-A from succilyl Co-A. The phosphate is then tansfered to GDP (guanosine diphosphate) to make GTP. Then the Pi is transferred to ADP to make ATP!

Not enough energy is released to reduce NAD, so FAD is instead reduced to FADH2. Fumarate (4-C) is converted to malate (4-C). Malate is oxidized to oxaloacetate (4-C). 2 hydrogens are reduced NAD to NADH. Oxaloacetate has been restored, so the cycle can continue!
