How Cells Release Chemical Energy Chapter 7 Slide with a red dot may be tested upon, those without are for information purposes only Objectives Today • Know the meaning of the term "metabolism." • Understand how cellular energy is produced from a glucose molecule during cellular respiration. • Discuss how the availability of oxygen determines the pathway by which ATP is produced. Metabolism • is the complete set of chemical reactions that occur in living cells. • These processes are the basis of life, allowing cells to grow and reproduce, maintain their structures, and respond to their environments. Producing the Universal Currency of Life All energy-releasing pathways – require characteristic starting materials - substrates – yield predictable products and by-products – produce ATP – ATP is the universal currency molecule of all life ATP Is Universal Energy Source • Photosynthesizers get energy from the sun • Animals get energy second- or third-hand from plants or other organisms • Regardless, the energy is converted to the chemical bond energy of ATP Making ATP • Plants make ATP during photosynthesis • Cells of all organisms (including plants) make ATP by breaking down carbohydrates, fats, and protein Main Types of Energy-Releasing Pathways Anaerobic pathways Aerobic pathways • Evolved first • Don’t require oxygen • Start with glycolysis in cytoplasm • Completed in cytoplasm • Evolved later • Require oxygen • Start with glycolysis in cytoplasm • Completed in mitochondria Energy-Releasing Pathways Overview of Aerobic Respiration enzymes C6H1206 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H20 glucose carbon oxygen dioxide water Main Pathways Start with Glycolysis • Glycolysis occurs in cytoplasm • Reactions are catalyzed by enzymes • ALL LIFEFORMS ON PLANET EARTH Glucose (six carbons) 2 Pyruvate (three carbons) The Role of Coenzymes • NAD+ and FAD accept electrons and hydrogen from intermediates during the first two stages • When reduced, they are NADH and FADH2 • In the third stage, these coenzymes deliver the electrons and hydrogen to the transfer chain (3rd stage) Overview of Aerobic Respiration glucose cytoplasm 2 ATP ATP GLYCOLYSIS energy input to start reactions e- + H+ (2 ATP net) 2 pyruvate 2 NADH mitochondrion 2 NADH 8 NADH 2 FADH2 e- e- + H+ 2 CO2 e- + H+ 4 CO2 e- + H+ Krebs Cycle 2 ELECTRON TRANSPORT PHOSPHORYLATION H+ 32 ATP ATP water e- + oxygen TYPICAL ENERGY YIELD: 36 ATP Glucose • A simple sugar (C6H12O6) • Atoms held together by covalent bonds Glycolysis Occurs in Two Stages • Energy-requiring steps (supply energy) – ATP energy activates glucose and its six- carbon derivatives • Energy-releasing steps (gain energy) – The products of the first part are split into three-carbon pyruvate molecules – ATP and NADH form Net Energy Yield from Glycolysis Energy requiring steps: -2 ATP invested (supply energy) Energy releasing steps: 2 NADH formed 4 ATP formed (gain energy) Net yield is 2 ATP and 2 NADH Second-Stage Reactions (Stage 2) • Occur in the mitochondria • Pyruvate is broken down to carbon dioxide and water • More ATP is formed • More coenzymes are reduced - carry high energy inner mitochondrial membrane outer mitochondrial membrane inner outer compartment compartment Two Parts of Second Stage • Preparatory reactions (Stage 2a) – Pyruvate is oxidized into two-carbon acetyl units and carbon dioxide – NAD+ is reduced • Krebs cycle (Stage 2b) – The acetyl units are oxidized to carbon dioxide – NAD+ and FAD are reduced Results of the Second Stage • All of the carbon molecules in pyruvate end up in carbon dioxide - released from cells • Coenzymes are reduced (they pick up electrons and hydrogen) - energized • One molecule of ATP is formed - just one! Coenzyme Reductions during First Two Stages - high energy molecules • Glycolysis (stage 1) 2 NADH • Preparatory reactions (stage 2a) 2 NADH • Krebs cycle 2 FADH2 + 6 NADH (stage 2b) • Total 2 FADH2 + 10 NADH Electron Transfer Phosphorylation (chain) • Occurs in the mitochondria • Coenzymes deliver electrons to electron transfer chains • Electron transfer sets up H+ ion gradients • Flow of H+ down gradients powers ATP formation (from between membranes to inner matrix of mitochondria) Second Stage of Aerobic Respiration Acetyl-CoA Formation pyruvate coenzyme A (CO2) NAD+ NADH CoA acetyl-CoA Krebs Cycle CoA oxaloacetate citrate NAD+ NADH NADH NAD+ FADH2 NAD+ FAD NADH ATP ADP + phosphate group Electron Transfer Phosphorylation glucose GLYCOLYSIS pyruvate • Electron transfer chains are embedded in inner mitochondrial compartment • NADH and FADH2 give up electrons that they picked up in earlier stages to electron transfer chain KREBS CYCLE ELECTRON TRANSFER PHOSPHORYLATION • Electrons are transferred through the chain • The final electron acceptor is oxygen Creating an H+ Gradient OUTER COMPARTMENT NADH INNER COMPARTMENT ATP Formation -as the H+ rush back into the mitochondrial matrix they spin a protein that makes lots of ATP ATP INNER COMPARTMENT ADP + Pi Summary of Transfers glucose ATP 2 PGAL ATP 2 NADH 2 pyruvate glycolysis 2 CO2 2 FADH2 e– 2 acetyl-CoA 2 NADH H+ H+ 2 ATP 6 NADH Krebs Cycle KREBS CYCLE ATP 2 FADH2 4 CO2 H+ H+ ATP 36 ATP electron transfer phosphorylation H+ H+ ADP + Pi H+ H+ H+ Importance of Oxygen • Electron transfer chains require the presence of oxygen • Oxygen combines with spent electrons and H+ to form water - which is used by the cell - it is not released from your lungs Summary of Energy Harvest (per molecule of glucose) • Glycolysis step – 2 ATP formed by substrate-level phosphorylation • Krebs cycle and preparatory reactions – 2 ATP formed by substrate-level phosphorylation • Electron transfer phosphorylation – 32 ATP formed Efficiency of Aerobic Respiration • 686 kcal is the about of energy in a glucose molecule • Of the above, 7.5 kcal are conserved in each ATP. When 36 ATP form, 270 kcal (36 X 7.5) are captured in ATP • Efficiency is 270 / 686 X 100 = 39 percent • Most energy (over 60%) is lost as heat What if a cell does not use oxygen? How does it get energy? Anaerobic Pathways • Do not use oxygen • Produce less ATP than aerobic pathways • Two types of fermentation pathways – Alcoholic fermentation - great for students – Lactate fermentation - hurts me Fermentation Pathways • Begin with glycolysis • Do not break glucose down completely to carbon dioxide and water • Yield only the 2 ATP from glycolysis (stage 1) • Steps that follow glycolysis serve only to regenerate NAD+ - no energy is produced Alcoholic Fermentation glycolysis C6H12O6 2 ATP energy input 2 ADP 2 NAD+ 2 4 NADH ATP energy output 2 pyruvate 2 ATP net ethanol formation 2 H2O 2 CO2 2 acetaldehyde electrons, hydrogen from NADH 2 ethanol Yeasts • Single-celled fungi • Carry out alcoholic fermentation • Saccharomyces cerevisiae – Baker’s yeast – Carbon dioxide makes bread dough rise • Saccharomyces ellipsoideus – Used to make beer and wine Lactate Fermentation • Carried out by certain bacteria • No mitochondria, so where does this take place? • Electron transfer chain is in bacterial plasma membrane • Final electron acceptor is compound from environment (such as nitrate), not oxygen • ATP yield is low Lactate Fermentation glycolysis C6H12O6 2 ATP energy input 2 NAD+ 2 ADP 2 4 NADH ATP energy output 2 pyruvate 2 ATP net lactate formation electrons, hydrogen from NADH 2 lactate Carbohydrate Breakdown and Storage • Glucose is absorbed into blood • Pancreas releases insulin (a hormone) • Insulin stimulates glucose uptake by cells • Cells convert glucose to glucose-6-phosphate • This traps glucose in cytoplasm where it can be used for glycolysis Making Glycogen - (this is not glucose) • If glucose intake is high, ATP-making machinery goes into high gear • When ATP levels rise high enough, glucose6-phosphate is diverted into glycogen synthesis (mainly in liver and muscle) • Glycogen is the main storage polysaccharide in animals Using Glycogen • When blood levels of glucose decline, pancreas releases glucagon (a hormone) • Glucagon stimulates liver cells to convert glycogen back to glucose and to release it to the blood • (Muscle cells do not release their stored glycogen) - selfish ba**ards!!!!! Energy Reserves • Glycogen makes up only about 1 percent of the body’s energy reserves - sugars • Proteins make up 21 percent of energy reserves - proteins • Fat makes up the bulk of reserves (78 percent) fats Reaction Sites FOOD fats fatty acids glycogen glycerol complex carbohydrates proteins simple sugars (e.g., glucose) amino acids NH3 glucose-6phosphate urea carbon backbones PGAL 2 glycolysis ATP 4 ATP (2 ATP net) NADH pyruvate Acetyl-CoA NADH NADH, FADH2 CO2 Krebs Cycle 2 ATP CO2 e– ATP ATP ATP H+ e– + oxygen many ATP fats Evolution of Metabolic Pathways 1.

The came organisms with aerobic pathways Cycle of life Aerobic Respiration Photosynthesis • Reactants • Reactants – Sugar – Carbon dioxide – Oxygen – Water • Products • Products – Carbon dioxide – Sugar – Water – Oxygen
