Oxidative Phosphorylation and
Electron Transport Chain(ETC)
• What is phosphorylation?
• What is Oxidative phosphorylation?
• Formation of ATP from coupling of ADP
and Pi is known as phosphorylation.
• Three types– (1) Substrate level phosphorylation
– (2) Photophosphorylation
– (3) Oxidative phosphorylation
(1) Substrate level phosphorylation
• Enzymatic Transfer of phosphate from substrate
to ADP to form ATP.
• ATP made in glycolysis and the TCA cycle is the
result of substrate- level phosphorylation
(2) Photophosphorylation
• Formation of ATP in light reaction of photosynthesis.
• In which photosynthetic organisms capture the energy of
sunlight—the ultimate source of energy in the biosphere
and harness it to make ATP
• Photophosphorylation involves the oxidation of H2O to
O2, with NADP as ultimate electron acceptor; it is
absolutely dependent on the energy of light.
Oxidative phosphorylation
• How cells convert the stored metabolic
energy of NADH and [FADH2] into ATP?
NADH or FADH2-dependent ATP synthesis is the result of oxidative
phosphorylation.i. e. Formation of ATP from the oxidation of
NADH or FADH2 in presence of oxygen through electron transport
chain is know as oxidative phosphorylation.
Oxidative phosphorylation is the collection of energy yielding
metabolism in aerobic organisms.
All oxidative steps in the degradation of carbohydrates, fats, and
amino go through this final stage of cellular respiration, in which the
energy of oxidation drives the synthesis of ATP
• Electrons stored in the form of the reduced coenzymes, NADH or
[FADH2], are passed through an elaborate and highly organized
chain of proteins and coenzymes, therefore called electron
transport chain, finally reaching O2 (molecular oxygen) is the
terminal electron acceptor.
• Each component of the chain can exist in (at least) two oxidation
states, and each component is successively reduced and reoxidized
as electrons move through the chain from NADH (or [FADH2]) to O2.
• In the course of electron transport, a proton gradient is established
across the inner mitochondrial membrane. It is the energy of this
proton gradient that drives ATP synthesis.
• In eukaryotes, oxidative phosphorylation occurs in inner
mitochondrial membrane, and in prokaryote occurs in plasma
membrane.
• Oxidative phosphorylation involves the reduction of O2 to H2O with
electrons donated by NADH and FADH2.
• It occurs equally well in light or darkness.
• Oxidative phosphorylation and photophosphorylation are
mechanistically similar in three respects.
– (1) Both processes involve the flow of electrons through a chain
of membrane-bound carriers.
– (2) The free energy made available by this “downhill” (exergonic)
electron flow is coupled to the “uphill” transport of protons across
a proton-impermeable membrane, conserving the free energy of
fuel oxidation as a transmembrane electrochemical potential (p.
391).
– (3) The transmembrane flow of protons down their concentration
gradient through specific protein channels provides the free
energy for synthesis of ATP, catalyzed by a membrane protein
complex (ATP synthase) that couples proton flow to
phosphorylation of ADP.
Electron-Transfer Chain
ETC or ETS
• Is the assembly of respiratory enzymes or carrier
proteins found in cristae or inner membrane of
mitochondria in eukaryotic cell and plasma
membrane of prokaryotic cell.
• The different components of electron transport
chain are NAD, FAD, Co-Q, Cyt-b, Cyt.-c1, Cyt.c2 Cyt.-a, Cyt.-a3.
• NAD and FAD are nucleotide and hydrogen
acceptors. Co-Q is the complex organic
compound and hydrogen acceptors.
• The mitochondrial respiratory chain consists of a series
of sequentially acting electron carriers, most of which are
integral proteins with prosthetic groups capable of
accepting and donating either one or two electrons.
• Three types of electron transfers occur in oxidative
phosphorylation:
– (1) direct transfer of electrons, as in the reduction of Fe3 to Fe2;
– (2) transfer as a hydrogen atom (H e); and
– (3) transfer as a hydride ion (:H), which bears two electrons.
The term reducing equivalent is used to designate a single
electron equivalent transferred in an oxidation-reduction
reaction.
In addition to NAD and flavoproteins, three other
types of electron-carrying molecules function in
the respiratory chain:
• a hydrophobic quinone (ubiquinone) and
• two different types of iron-containing proteins
(cytochromes and iron-sulfur proteins).
• Ubiquinone (also called coenzyme Q, or
simply Q) is a lipid-soluble benzoquinone
• The order of carriers deduced by this method is NADH →
Q → cytochrome b → cytochrome c1 → cytochrome c →
cytochrome a → cytochrome a3 → O2
Electrons Pass through a Series
of Membrane-Bound Carriers
• The mitochondrial respiratory chain consists of a series of
sequentially acting electron carriers, most of which are integral
proteins with prosthetic groups capable ofaccepting and donating
either one or two electrons.
• Three types of electron transfers occur in oxidativephosphorylation:
(1) direct transfer of electrons, as in the reduction of Fe3+ to Fe2+;
(2) transfer as a hydrogen atom
(3) transfer as a hydride ion which bears two electrons.
The term reducing equivalent is used to designate a single
electron equivalent transferred in an oxidation-reduction
reaction.
Electron Carriers Function in
Multienzyme Complexes
•
The electron carriers of the respiratory chain are organized into membraneembedded supramolecular complexes that can be physically separated.
•
Gentle treatment of the inner mitochondrial membrane with detergents
allows the resolution of four unique electron carrier complexes, each
capable of catalyzing electron transfer through a portion of the chain.
•
Complexes I and II catalyze electron transfer to ubiquinone from two
different electron donors: NADH (Complex I) and succinate (Complex II).
•
Complex III carries electrons from reduced ubiquinone to cytochrome c, and
•
Complex IV completes the sequence by transferring electrons from
cytochrome c to O2.
Complex I: NADH to Ubiquinone
• Complex I, also called NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase or
NADH dehydrogenase,
• is a large enzyme composed of 42 different polypeptide chains,
including an FMN-containing flavoprotein and at least six iron sulfur
centers.
• Complex I catalyzes two simultaneous and obligately coupled
processes:
– (1) the exergonic transfer to ubiquinone of a hydride ion from NADH and
a proton from the matrix.
– (2) the endergonic transfer of four protons from the matrix to the
intermembrane space.
• Complex I is therefore a proton pump driven by the energy of
electron transfer, and the reaction it catalyzes is vectorial: it moves
protons in a specific direction from one location (the matrix, which
becomes negatively charged with the departure of protons) to
another (the intermembrane space, which becomes positively
charged).
Complex II: Succinate to
Ubiquinone
• succinate dehydrogenase,the only membrane-bound enzyme in
the citric acid cycle , they contain three 2Fe-2S centers, bound FAD,
and a binding site for the substrate,succinate. The path of electron
transfer from the succinate-binding site to FAD, then through the FeS centers to the Q-binding site.
• Complex III: Ubiquinone to Cytochrome c
The next respiratory complex, Complex III, also called
cytochrome bc1 complex or ubiquinone:cytochrome c
oxidoreductase,couples the transfer of electrons from ubiquinol
(QH2) to cytochrome c with the vectorial transport of protons from
the matrix to the intermembrane space.
• Complex IV: Cytochrome c to O2 In the final step of the
respiratory chain, Complex IV, also called cytochrome oxidase,
carries electrons from cytochrome c to molecular oxygen,
reducing it to H2O
