CHAPTER 4: CELL METABOLISM
1
METABOLIC PROCESSES
all chemical reactions that occur in the body
Two (2) types :
Anabolism
• Larger molecules are
made from smaller
ones
• Requires energy
Catabolism
• Larger molecules are
broken down into smaller
ones
• Releases energy
2
CONTROL OF METABOLIC REACTIONS
Enzymes
• Control rates
• Not consumed in chemical reactions
• Substrate specific:
Shape of active site determines substrate
Substrate molecules

ENZYME ACTION
Metabolic pathways
• Series
of enzyme-controlled reactions leading to
formation of a product
• Each new substrate is the product of the
previous reaction

Enzyme D
Product
• Enzyme names commonly reflect the substrate
• Have the suffix – ase
• Examples: sucrase, lactase, protease, lipase
4
Cofactors
• Make some enzymes active
• Non-protein component
• Ions or coenzymes
Coenzymes
• Organic molecules that act as cofactors
• Vitamins
5
FACTORS THAT ALTER ENZYMES
• Heat
• Radiation
• Electricity
• Chemicals
• Changes in pH
6
RELEASE OF CHEMICAL ENERGY
• Chemical
bonds are broken to release
energy
• We burn glucose in a process called
oxidation (combustion)

4.5: CELLULAR RESPIRATION
Occurs in a series of reactions:
1. Glycolysis
2. Citric acid cycle (TCA or Kreb’s Cycle)
3. Electron transport system
4. Produces ATP
8
Includes:
• Anaerobic reactions (without O2) –
produce little ATP
• Aerobic reactions (requires O2) –
produce most of ATP needed

4.6: Nucleic Acids and
Protein Synthesis
• Genetic information – instructs cells how to
construct proteins; stored in DNA
• Gene – segment of DNA that codes for one protein
• Genome – complete set of genes
• Genetic Code – method used to translate a
sequence of nucleotides of DNA into a
sequence of amino acids
12
TYPES OF RNA MOLECULES
Messenger RNA (mRNA):
Making of mRNA (copying of DNA) is transcription
Transfer RNA (tRNA):
• Carries amino acids to mRNA
• Carries anticodon to mRNA
• Translates a codon of mRNA into an amino acid
Ribosomal RNA (rRNA):
• Provides structure and enzyme activity for ribosomes
13
4.7: CHANGES IN GENETIC INFORMATION
Only about 1/10th of one percent of the human
genome differs from person to person
Inborn Errors of Metabolism
• Occurs from inheriting a mutation that
alters an enzyme
• Creates a block in a biochemical pathway
14
NATURE OF MUTATIONS
Mutations – change in genetic information
May or may not change the protein
Code for
