Presentation Transcript

  1. How Cells Make ATP: Energy-Releasing Pathways

  2. Cellular respiration • Aerobic respiration • Requires molecular oxygen • Includes redox reactions • Anaerobic • Anaerobic respiration • Fermentation • Do not require oxygen • All exergonic

  3. Four stages of aerobic respiration • Takes place in the cytosol • Glycolysis • Takes place in the mitochondrion • Formation of acetyl CoA • Citric acid cycle • Electron transport chain/chemiosmosis

  4. Four stages of aerobic respiration

  5. Summary of aerobic respiration

  6. Glycolysis • “Sugar splitting” • Does not require oxygen • Divided into two major phases • Energy investment phase • Energy capture phase • Each glucose molecule produces net yield of two NADH molecules and two ATP molecules

  7. Glycolysis

  8. Glycolysis: energy investment phase

  9. Glycolysis: energy capture phase

  10. Formation of acetyl CoA • Catalyzed by enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase • First carboxyl group is split off as carbon dioxide • Then remaining two-carbon fragment is oxidized and electrons transferred to NAD+ • Finally, oxidized two-carbon group is attached to coenzyme A

  11. Formationof acetyl CoA

  12. Citric acid cycle • For every glucose, two acetyl groups enter the citric acid cycle • Each two-carbon acetyl group combines with a four-carbon compound • Two CO2 molecules are removed • Energy captured as one ATP, three NADH, and one FADH2 per acetyl group

  13. Citric acid cycle

  14. Detail ofcitric acid cycle

  15. Electron transport chain • Series of electron carriers • Each carrier exists in oxidized or reduced form • Electrons pass down the electron transport chain in series of redox reactions • Lose energy as pass along the chain

  16. Electron transport chain

  17. Accumulationof protons withinthe inter-membranespace

  18. Electron transport and chemiosmosis

  19. Energyyield fromcompleteoxidation ofglucose byaerobicrespiration

  20. Many organisms depend on nutrients other than glucose • Products of protein and lipid catabolism enter same metabolic pathways as glucose • Amino acids are deaminated

  21. Energyfrom carbohydrates,proteins, and fats

  22. Anaerobic respiration versus fermentation • Anaerobic respiration • Electrons transferred from fuel molecules to electron transport chain • Final electron acceptor is inorganic substance • Fermentation • Anaerobic process that does not use electron transport chain

  23. Comparison of aerobic respiration, anaerobic respiration, and fermentation

  24. Fermentation
