Where do we get the energy we need?
 Energy needs a source
How much energy do we need?
It all depends on what we are doing

ATP: ADENOSINE TRIPHOSPHATE
 Structure
 Three phosphate groups
 Energy is stored in
phosphate bond
ATP: adenosine triphosphate
 When energy is required
• ATP binds to enzyme
• ATP  ADP + Pi +Energy
 release energy to perform a needed function
 ADP gets recycled into ATP repeatedly
 ATP↔ ADP + (Pi) + Energy
NADH/NAD+ REDOX R(X)
Chemical energy
 Energy comes from electrons
 Glucose (and other molecules) store energy in
chemical bonds
• One glucose molecule contains 90 times the
energy produced by 1 ATP
• Remember last chapter….
The first steps are always the hardest…. (except for here)
Movies are always better than the book (?!)

GLYCOLYSIS: series of reactions in which a
molecule of glucose is broken down
 “Sugar breaking”
 If this process shuts down, it cannot restart
 Always the first step to breaking down carbs
 Requires energy to get energy
• Requires 2 ATP to get things started
• Results in 4 ATP being produced
 Takes place in cytosol
GLYCOLYSIS: series of reactions in which a
molecule of glucose is broken down
 The steps
• Two phosphate groups attach to glucose
 Phosphates are supplied by 2 ATP  2ADP
 Form a new 6-carbon compound
• 6-carbon molecule splits
 Forms two 3-carbon molecules of PGAL
GLYCOLYSIS: series of reactions in which a
molecule of glucose is broken down
 The steps (cont.)
• Two PGAL  2 molecules of a 3-carbon
compound
 PGAL gets oxidized (loses an e-)
 Each PGAL gains a phosphate group
 NAD+ reduced to NADH + H+
• Phosphate groups are removed
 Two molecules pyruvic acid are made
 Phosphate groups attach to ADP
 4 ADP + 4 phosphate groups  4 ATP
GLYCOLYSIS: series of reactions in which a
molecule of glucose is broken down
 Net production
• Two molecules pyruvic acid
• Two molecules ATP
• Two pair high energy e- carried by NADH
 Energy from e- is used when O2 is not available

FERMENTATION:
 regeneration of NAD+ when oxygen is unavailable
 Temporary solution
 Two types (each organism uses only one, but two are
critical to our lives…)
Electron gets passed back from NADH to C atoms
 Allows cell to recycle NAD+
 Allows glycolysis to continue
 Cell accumulates compounds that accept electrons
LACTIC ACID FERMENTATION
 Pyruvic acid  lactic acid
• Transfer of 2 H+ from NADH + H+ to pyruvic acid
• NADH oxidized to NAD+
• NAD+ used in glycolysis
 Regeneration of NAD+ allows continuation of
glycolysis
LACTIC ACID FERMENTATION
 Occurs when you are very active (i.e.: running)
• When there is insufficient oxygen to cells fermentation
occurs
• Lactic acid accumulates in cells decreasing pH of cell
• Increased acidity reduces cell’s ability to contract
 results in muscle fatigue, pain, cramps
 eventually diffuses into blood stream and is processed by liver
 reverts to pyruvic acid when oxygen becomes available
 Used in cheese and yogurt industry
Cheese is produced by lactic acid
fermentation. (So is yogurt!)

ALCOHOLIC FERMENTATION
 Pyruvic acid – CO2  ethyl alcohol (ethanol)
 Two steps
• Pyruvic acid  2-C compound + CO2
• 2-C compound + 2H+  ethyl alcohol
 H+ comes from NADH + H+  NAD+
ALCOHOLIC FERMENTATION
 Yeast utilizes alcoholic fermentation
• beer and wine industry
• yeast produces ethanol until [ethanol] is too high for
yeast to survive
 wine: CO2 allowed to escape
 champagne & beer: CO2 is retained
• bread
 CO2 that is released causes bread to rise
 Ethyl alcohol evaporates during baking
Yeast undergoes alcoholic
fermentation to produce….
Saccharomyces cerevisiae
…a little beer,…
…a lot of beer,…
…Champagne,…
… and wine.
Released CO2 makes bread rise

7-2: AEROBIC RESPIRATION:
 release of energy from breakdown of food when
oxygen is present
CONVERSION TO ACETYLCOA:
The beginning
 Occurs in mitochondria
 Pyruvic acid diffuses into mitochondria crossing
both membranes
 Reactions occur within the mitochondrial matrix
 Space inside the inner mitochondrial membrane
 Contains enzymes needed for the Krebs Cycle
 Pyruvic acid + Coenzyme A  AcetylCoA

KREBS CYCLE
 AcetylCoA  CO2 + H+ + ATP
 Occurs in the matrix
 The steps
• Step 1:AcetylCoA + oxaloacetic acid  citric acid
 2C + 4C = 6C
• Step 2: Citric acid  CO2 + H+ + a 5-C compound
 regenerates CoA
 citric acid is oxidized
 H+ atom transferred to NAD+ reducing it to NADH
KREBS CYCLE
 AcetylCoA  CO2 + H+ + ATP
 The steps (cont.)
• Step 3: 5-C compound  CO2 + H+ + 4-C
compound (succinyl-CoA)
 NAD+ reduced to NADH
 ADP + phosphate  ATP
KREBS CYCLE
 AcetylCoA  CO2 + H+ + ATP.
 The steps (cont.)
• Step 4: 4-C compound  different 4-C compound + H+
(maleate)
 FAD reduced to FADH2
 FAD is similar to NAD+ - it accepts e- during redox reactions
• Step 5: (new) 4-C compound  H+ + oxaloacetic acid
 Regenerates oxaloacetic acid
 NAD+ reduced

KREBS CYCLE
 Because 1 glucose  2 pyruvic acid then 1 glucose
 2 turns of Krebs cycle
 Final production of Krebs cycle
• Six NADH
continue on
• Two FADH2
• Two ATP – used for energy
• Four CO2 – given off by organism as waste
KREBS CYCLE
 Totals so far from 1 glucose
• NADH –10
 (2 from glycolysis; 2 from AcetylCoA conversion)
• FADH2 – 2
• ATP – 4
 (2 from glycolysis; 2 from Krebs cycle)
• CO2 – 6
 (2 from AcetylCoA conversion; 4 from Krebs cycle)

ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN (ETC)
 Occurs in cristae
• H+ atoms contain high energy e-
• e- transported from molecule to molecule along
•
•
•
•
cristae losing energy each time
Energy used to pump p+ of H atoms across matrix
membrane
[H+] increases between inner and outer membranes
concentration gradient is created
concentration gradient drives ATP production
(chemiosmosis)
Electron Transport Chain (ETC)
 Role of oxygen
• e- produced above must be removed
• O2 is final acceptor of e• O2 also accepts H+ protons
• Result: O2 + 4e- + 4 H+  2 H2O
