Microbiology 1: Microbial Metabolism (Ch 8) © copyright 2013 Marta D. de Jesus I. Metabolism - why study?? parts 1. anabolism 2. catabolism ATP II. Enzymes A. enzyme structure 1. usually 2. sometimes not: ribozyme 3. holoenzyme a. apoenzyme b. cofactor B. function 1. reaction catalysts 2. several thousand 3. substrate 4. product C. mechanism(s) 1. active site 2. sequence D. Factors influencing reactions temperature pH substrate concentration inhibitors a. competitive b. allosteric/non-competitive 5. controlled by: a. negative feedback inhibition b. gene expression on enzyme synthesis E. enzyme names usually end in III. Biological energy production A. oxidation/reduction reactions (redox) 1. oxidation 2. reduction 3. coupled 4. used by cells 5. hydrogenation/dehydrogenation C. ATP production 1. substrate-level phosphorylation 2. oxidative phosphorylation 3. photophosphorylation 4. last 2 require IV. Glucose Catabolism A. Overall B. Very often this starts = Embden-Meyerhoff pathway 1. most organisms 2. 9 steps 3. Energy-investment stage Energy-conserving stage 4. net effect 5. bacterial alternatives a. pentose-phosphate pathway b. Entner-Doudoroff pathway C. Fate of pyruvate 1. respiration types 1) aerobic respiration (i) transition/preparatory reaction (ii) Krebs/Citric acid/TCA cycle (iii) electron transport (ETC) in mitochondria (iv) chemiosmosis (v) summary (vi) also occurs in aerobic-respiring bacteria 2) anaerobic respiration 2. fermentation types 1) homolactic = homofermentative 2) alcoholic 3) others V. Other Catabolic Pathways VI. Biosynthesis = Anabolism A. Photosynthesis 1. several kinds a. Halobacterium (Archaea) bacteriorhodopsin b. green sulfur & purple sulfur bacteria bacteriochlorophylls c. cyanobacteria & photosynthetic eukaryotes (land plants & algae) chlorophyll a 2. oxygenic PS in more detail a. chloroplast anatomy & the 2 kinds of reactions b. light dependent reactions 1) photosystems PSI PSII 2) non-cyclic photophosphorylation 3) cyclic photophosphorylation 4) arrangement in membrane 5) other light-harvesting pigments c. light independent/dark reactions = Calvin-Benson cycle = carbon fixation RUBISCO B. chemosynthesis C. Other biosynthesis pathways D. amphibolic pathways Other resources on metabolism Online Metabolic Maps IUBMB-Nicholson Metabolic Maps, Minimaps & Animaps http://www.iubmb-nicholson.org/ More complex: KEGG PATHWAY Database: Wiring diagrams of molecular interactions, reactions, and relations http://www.genome.jp/kegg/pathway.html
