THE WORKING CELL • Metabolism Totality (sum) of an organism’s chemical reactions Catabolic Pathways Breaks down molecules; releases energy; EX: Cellular Respiration Anabolic Pathways Pathway that synthesizes larger molecules from smaller ones; requires energy; EX: synthesis of AA, synthesis of proteins I. THE WORKING CELL, cont • Energy • Kinetic Energy –energy associated with the relative motion of objects. EX: pool stick cue ball other balls Potential Energy – energy that matter possesses (stored) because of its location or structure. EX: water behind a dam Chemical Energy – Potential energy of molecules Thermodynamics First Law of Thermodynamics states that total amount of energy in universe is constant – can be transferred or transformed, but it cannot be created or destroyed Principle of the Conservation of Energy Second Law of Thermodynamics states that energy is lost to the environment as heat; that is, some energy becomes unusable EX: Bear catching fish for food Entropy – measure of disorder or randomness that is a consequence of the loss of useable energy during energy transfer. I. THE WORKING CELL, cont • Chemical Reactions are classified according to whether they require or produce energy Endergonic – Requires net input of energy. Energy is then stored in products as potential energy. Exergonic - Release energy. Energy Coupling – Often used in cellular metabolism. Energy released in exergonic rxn is used to drive endergonic rxn. ATP . . . It’s energy 1 – 2 – 3 . . . In bonds of P ATP . . . Energy Energy in the bonds of P! II. ATP • Powers 3 kinds of work: - Chemical (synthesis of polymers) - Transport (pumping substances across the membrane) - Mechanical (beating of cilia, contraction of muscle cells, chromosome movement) II. ATP • Adenosine Triphosphate Nucleotide that stores & provides usable energy to the cell Structure of ATP 5-C Sugar called Ribose Nitrogen base Adenine 3 Phosphate groups ATP contains potential energy, especially between 2nd and 3rd phosphate groups. P – P bond is unstable Easily broken by HYDROLYSIS II. ATP, cont • ATP → ADP + Pi Catabolic Pathway Exergonic Coupled with endergonic rxn – specifically, by transferring phosphate group from ATP to another molecule. II. ATP, cont • ADP + Pi → ATP Anabolic pathway Endergonic Mechanisms for “making” ATP Substrate-level Phosphorylation – enzyme transfers a P from a substrate molecule to an ADP (organic molecule generated as an intermediate) Oxidative Phosphorylation – powered by the redox reactions of the ETC (on the membranes) during chemiosmosis Photophosphorylation – generation of ATP in the light reactions using chemiosmosis II. ATP, cont Substrate-Level Phosphorylation vs. Oxidative/Photo Phosphorylation II. ATP, cont • In a human, 10 million molecules of ATP are “made” and “used” per second!! • We use 1 X 1025 (10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 or 10 quadrillion) molecules of ATP per day!! • That translates to 100 lbs of ATP . . . At any given moment, the amount present is ~ 2 oz!! • A working muscle cell recycles its entire supply of ATP in less than a minute!! • Bacteria contain a 1 second supply of ATP!!
