Presentation Transcript

  1. 6.7 Glycolysis • Glycolysis harvests chemical energy by oxidizing glucose to pyruvate • A single molecule of glucose is “cut in half” by enzymes through a series of steps to produce two molecules of pyruvate. • In the process, two molecules of NAD+ are reduced to two molecules of NADH • At the same time, two molecules of ATP are produced by substrate-level phosphorylation

  2. 6.7 Glycolysis • In substrate-level phosphorylation, an enzyme transfers a phosphate group from a substrate molecule to ADP… forming ATP • This ATP can be used immediately, but NADH must be transported to the electron transport chain to generate additional ATP

  3. 6.7 Glycolysis • MOST of the energy from Glucose is still in the pyruvate, and therefore pyruvate will move to the citric acid cycle to be further broken down.

  10. 6.8 Pyruvate is chemically groomed for the citric acid cycle • The pyruvate formed in glycolysis is transported to the mitochondria, where it is prepared for entry into the citric acid cycle • The first step is removal of a carboxyl group that forms CO2 • The second is oxidization of the two-carbon compound remaining • Finally, coenzyme A binds to the two-carbon fragment forming acetyl coenzyme A
