Groups of bugs based on energy
capture and carbon source
• AUTOTROPHY: Use carbon
dioxide to synthesize organic
molecules
• Two types:
1. Photoautotrophs: obtain energy
from light
2. Chemoautotrophs: obtain energy
from oxidizing simple inorganic
substance
Groups of bugs based on energy
capture and carbon source cont’d
• HETEROTROPHY: Get carbon dioxide from
ready made organic molecules
• Two types:
1. Photoheterotrophs: obtain chemical energy
from light
2. Chemoheterotrophs: obtain energy from
breaking down ready-made organic
compounds

Photosynthesis and Respiration
Metabolism
• The sum of all chemical processes carried out by living
organisms
• Anabolism: rxn that requires energy in order to
synthesize complex molecules from the simpler ones
- (use energy and building blocks to build large
molecules)
• Catabolism: rxn that releases energy by breaking
complex molecules into simpler ones which can be
reused as building blocks
- (provides energy and building blocks for anabolism)

Metabolic Pathway
• Glycolisis, fermentation, aerobic respiration and
photosynthesis each consists of a series of chemical
reaction
• The product of one reaction serves as the substrate for the
next: ABCD
• Such chain of reactions is called a metabolic pathway:
- Anabolic pathways make the complex molecules that
form structure of cells, enzymes and molecules that
control cells
- Catabolic pathways capture energy in a form a cell can
use
Oxidation-Reduction Reactions
• All catabolic reactions involve electron
transfer which is directly related to oxidation
and reduction (redox potential)
• Redox reaction: An oxidation reaction paired
with a reduction reaction
- Oxidation: the loss of removal of electrons
-Reduction: the gain of electrons
Oxidation-Reduction Reactions
Representative Biological Oxidations
In biological systems, the electrons are often
associated with hydrogen atoms. Biological
oxidations are often dehydrogenation.
Acronyms for oxidation and reduction:
•Oxidation Is Losing Electrons, Reduction Is Gaining Electrons: OIL RIG
•Losing Electrons Oxidation, Gaining Electrons Reduction: LEO the lion. GER! or LEO
says GER
•Electron Loss Means Oxidation: ELMO

Energy Transfer by Carrier Molecules
• Carrier molecules such as Cytochrome (cyt) and
some coenzymes carry energy in the form of
electrons in many biochemical reactions
• Coenzymes such as FAD carry whole hydrogen
atoms (electrons together with protons); NAD
carries one hydrogen atom and one “naked”
electron
• When co-enzymes are reduced, they increase in
energy, when they are oxidized, they decrease in
energy.
Energy Generation of ATP
• ATP is generated by the phosphorylation of
ADP
Energy
ADP + Pi + Energy
ATP
• In cells, energy is provided by the hydrolysis of
ATP
ATP
ADP + Pi + Energy
Energy
Generation of ATP
1. Substrate level Phosphorylation: Energy from the
transfer of a high energy PO4 to ADP generates ATP
C-C-C-P + ADP C-C-C + ATP
2. Oxidative Phosphorylation: Energy relseased from
transfer of electrons (oxidation) of one compound to
another (reduction) is used to generate Atp in the
electron transport chain
3. Photophosporylation: Light causes chlorophyll to give
up electrons. Energy released from transfer of
electrons (oxidation) of chlorophyll trough a system of
carrier molecules is used to generate ATP
Overview of Respiration vs Fermentation
Carbohydrate Catabolism
• The breakdown of carbohydrate to release
energy involves
1. Glycolisis (cytoplasm)
2. Krebs cycle (mitochondrion)
3. Electron transport chain
Glycolysis
• Glycolysis (Embden Meyerhof pathway) is the
metabolic pathway used by most autotrophic
and heterotrophic organismsm to begin
breakdown of glucose
• Does not require oxygen, but occur in precense
or absence of oxygen
• Overall chemical reaction of Glycolysis

Glycolysis
Alternative to Glycolysis
• Pentose phosphate pathway
a. Uses pentoses and NADPH
b. Operates with glycolisis
• Entner-Doudoroff pathway
a. Produces NADPH and ATP
b. Does not involve glycolisis
c.
Pseudomonas, Rhizobium, Agrobacterium
Intermediate step
• Pyruvic acid (from glycolysis) is oxidized and
decarboxylated
The Krebs Cycle/ The Citric acid cycle
(TCA cycle)
• Oxidation of acetyl Co-A produces NADH and
FADH2 (mitochondrion)
The Electron Transport Chain
• An electron transport chain (ETC) couples electron transfer between
an electron donor (such as NADH) and an electron acceptor (such as
O2) to the transfer of H+ ions (protons) across a membrane.
• A series of oxidation-reduction reactions, the electron transport
chain (ETC) performs 2 basic functions:
1. Accepting electrons from an electron donor and transferring them
to an electron acceptor
2. Conserving for ATP synthesis some of the energy released during
the electron transfer
• A series of carrier molecules that are, in turn oxidized and reduced
as electrons are passed down the chain
• Energy released can be used to produce ATP by chemiosmosis
The Electron Transport Chain
The Electron Transport Chain
Chemiosmosis
• Electrons from the hydrogen atoms removed
from the reactions of the Krebs cycle are
transferred through the electron transport
system
• Electron transport creates the H potential
across the membrane
• Combination of hydrogen/electron carriers
