Presentation Transcript

  1. ATP Production AP Biology

  2. Overview: Life Is Work • Living cells require energy from outside sources • Some animals, such as the giant panda, obtain energy by eating plants, and some animals feed on other organisms that eat plants • Energy flows into an ecosystem as sunlight and leaves as heat • Photosynthesis generates O2 and organic molecules, which are used in cellular respiration • Cells use chemical energy stored in organic molecules to regenerate ATP, which powers work

  3. Adenosine Tri-Phosphate (ATP) • ATP is the energy unit of the cell. • ATP is composed of an Adeno. Group, a sugar group and three phosphates. • ATP is easily recycled. • The cell converts Adenosine Di-Phosphate (ADP) into ATP by the addition of a phosphate.

  4. An Overview of how ATP is Produced

  6. Redox Reactions: Oxidation and Reduction • The transfer of electrons during chemical reactions releases energy stored in organic molecules • This released energy is ultimately used to synthesize ATP

  7. The Principle of Redox • Chemical reactions that transfer electrons between reactants are called oxidation-reduction reactions, or redox reactions • In oxidation, a substance loses electrons, or is oxidized • In reduction, a substance gains electrons, or is reduced (the amount of positive charge is reduced)

  8. ATP powers cellular work by coupling exergonic reactions to endergonic reactions • A cell does three main kinds of work: • Chemical • Transport • Mechanical • To do work, cells manage energy resources by energy coupling, the use of an exergonic process to drive an endergonic one • Most energy coupling in cells is mediated by ATP

  9. ATP • ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the cell’s energy shuttle • ATP is composed of: • ribose (a sugar) • adenine (a nitrogenous base) • Three phosphate groups

  11. The bonds between the phosphate groups of ATP’s tail can be broken by hydrolysis • Energy is released from ATP when the terminal phosphate bond is broken • This Third Phosphate bond contains LOTS of Energy • This release of energy comes from the chemical change to a state of lower free energy, not from the phosphate bonds themselves

  13. How ATP Performs Work • The three types of cellular work are: • mechanical • transport • chemical • Each is powered by the hydrolysis of ATP • In the cell, the energy from the exergonic reaction of ATP hydrolysis can be used to drive an endergonic reaction

  15. Phosphorylation • ATP drives endergonic reactions by phosphorylation, transferring a phosphate group to some other molecule, such as a reactant • The recipient molecule is now phosphorylated

  16. Phosphorylation • The process of Phosphorylation converts a relatively low energy compound (ADP) into a higher energy compound (ATP) • ADP (Adenosine Di-Phosphate)- Contains an Adenosine, a ribose group, and two Phosphate groups.

  18. The ATP Cycle • ATP can be produced from existing ADP molecules • A phosphate is added to ADP at the mitochondria. • Requires ATP synthase - A protein complex in the mitochondria that acts a molecular mill and converts ADP into ATP.

  20. The Regeneration of ATP • ATP is a renewable resource that is regenerated by addition of a phosphate group to adenosine diphosphate (ADP). • Requires ATP synthase and H ions (from water.) • The energy to phosphorylate ADP comes from catabolic reactions in the cell. • The chemical potential energy temporarily stored in ATP can then be used to drive most cellular work.
