2 A cell has enough ATP to last for about three seconds

3 Necessary ATP is supplied to muscle cells by 1. Phosphagen system (8 to 10 seconds.) 2. Glycogen-lactic acid system (90 seconds)- glucose 3. Aerobic Respiration (unlimited)- glucose

4 Phosphagen system (muscle fibers) Creatine phosphate contains (a high-energy phosphate compound). Creatine kinase transfers the phosphate to ADP to form ATP. Creatine-Phosphate (tri) * Creatine-Phosphate + ADP (Tri) Creatine Kinase Creatine-Phosphate + ATP (Di) (*) Arezki Azzi et al. Protein Sci 2004; 13:

5 During cellular respiration the potential energy in the chemical bonds holding C atoms in organic molecules in turned into ATP. In presence of oxygen complete breakdown C-C-C-C-C-C + O 2 CO 2 + H 2 O + ATP large amount In absence of oxygen incomplete breakdown C-C-C-C-C-C 2 C-C-C + ATP small amount

6 Cellular respiration: ATP is produced aerobically, in the presence of oxygen Fermentation: ATP is produced anaerobically, in the absence of oxygen

7 Chemical bonds of organic molecules Chemical bonds involve electrons of atoms Electrons have energy Chemical bonds are forms of potential energy If a molecule loses an electron does it lose energy? When a chemical bond is broken sometimes electrons can be released

8 Oxidation-Reduction Oxidation: removal of electrons. Reduction: gain of electrons. Redox reaction: oxidation reaction paired with a reduction reaction.

9 Electron Carriers in Biological Systems The electrons associated with hydrogen atoms. Biological oxidations are often dehydrogenations Soluble electron carriers NAD +, and FAD (ATP generation) NADP + (biosynthetic reactions)

10 Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD + ) a co-enzyme that acts as an electron shuttle (Niacin) 2 e + 2 H + 2 e + H + NAD + Dehydrogenase NADH H + Nicotinamide (oxidized form) + 2[H] (from food) Nicotinamide (reduced form) + H +

11 Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide (FAD+) is another co-enzyme that acts as an electron shuttle (Vitamin B2)

12 Oxidation In Metabolic pathways Reduction - Energy loss or gain - Endergonic or exergonic

13 In cells, energy is harvested from an energy source (organic molecule) by a series of coupled oxidation/reduction reactions (redox) known as the central metabolic pathways becomes oxidized becomes reduced Dehydrogenase

20 Glycolysis Multi step breakdown of glucose into intermediates Turns one glucose (6-carbon) into two pyruvate (3-carbon) molecules Generates a small amount of ATP (substratelevel phosphorylation) Generates reducing power - NADH + H +

21 Generation of ATP 1. Substrate-level phosphorylation -Transfer of a high-energy - PO 4 from an organic molecule to ADP - Different enzymes - During glycolysis and the TCA or Krebs cycle

24 Fermentation An extension of glycolysis Takes place in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic) Regenerates NAD + from NADH + H + ATP generated by substrate - level phosphorylation during glycolysis Does not use the Krebs cycle or ETC (no oxidative - phosphorylation) A diversity of end products produced (i.e. lactic acid, alcohols, etc.)

30 Transition step Under aerobic conditions, the pyruvate produced during glycolysis is directed to the mitochondrion. A multi-enzyme complex, spanning the 2 mitochondrial membranes, turns pyruvate (3-carbon) into Acetyl-CoA (2-carbon) and releases one CO 2 molecule Uses coenzyme A (Vit B derivative) Generates reducing power NADH + H +

32 Krebs or TCA Cycle A cyclical pathway Accepts acetyl CoA Generates 2 CO 2 molecules (for every acetyl-coa Generates reducing power NADH + H + and FADH 2 Generates a small amount of ATP (substrate-level phosphorylation)
