Cellular Respiration
Stage 2 & 3:
Oxidation of Pyruvate
Krebs Cycle
AP Biology
2006-2007
Glycolysis is only the start
§  Glycolysis
glucose → → → → → pyruvate
6C
2x 3C
§  Pyruvate has more energy to yield
3 more C to strip off (to oxidize)
u  if O2 is available, pyruvate enters mitochondria
u  enzymes of Krebs cycle complete the full
oxidation of sugar to CO2
u 
pyruvate → → → → → → CO2

Mitochondria – Function
Oooooh!
Form fits
function!
Dividing mitochondria
Membrane-bound proteins
Who else divides like that? Enzymes & permeases
What does this tell us about
the evolution of eukaryotes?

Oxidation of pyruvate
§  Pyruvate enters mitochondrial matrix

2x pyruvate → → → acetyl CoA + CO2

Where
does the
CO2 go?
Exhale!

Krebs cycle

§  aka Citric Acid Cycle
in _________________________
u  8 step pathway

§  each catalyzed by specific enzyme
Hans Krebs
1900-1981
§  step-wise catabolism of 6C citrate molecule
§  Evolved later than glycolysis
u 
does that make evolutionary sense?
§  bacteria →3.5 billion years ago (glycolysis)
§  free O2 →2.7 billion years ago (photosynthesis)
§  eukaryotes →1.5 billion years ago (aerobic

with 4 ATP!

is to make

§  ATP synthase
set up a H+ gradient
u  allow H+ to flow
through ATP synthase
u  powers bonding

But…
Have
we done that yet?
NO!
