Transcript ATP
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

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

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

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
