1
Metabolism The sum total of ALL chemical reactions within a cell
Catabolic Anabolic
2
Oxidation/reduction reactions
3
Biological Oxidation
4
ATP is made in catabolic reactions and used in anabolic reactions
5
Ways cells make ATP Substrate level phosphorylation
Oxidative phosphorylation Photophosphorylation
6
Types of Bacterial Metabolism
Fermentation Respiration Aerobic Respiration Anaerobic Respiration Photosynthesis
7
Keep in mind…glucose becomes many different things
8
Fermentation The incomplete breakdown of glucose with an organic compound serving as the final electron acceptor Only pathway operating is glycolysis
10
Fermentation
11
Lactic Acid Bacteria
12
Saccharomyces produces ethanol
13
Fermentation products can vary
14
Aerobic Respiration The COMPLETE breakdown of glucose to CO2 and H2O with an inorganic compound serving as the final electron acceptor
15
Remember the pathways in aerobic respiration are…
Glycolysis Some use Pentose Phosphate Pathway instead TCA cycle Electron transport chain
18
What is made as a result of the TCA cycle?
ATP Reducing power Precursor metabolites made from alpha-ketoglutarate and oxaloacetate
19
Electron Transport Chain
Found in the cytoplasmic membrane Contains electron carriers Flavoproteins Iron-sulfur proteins Quinones Cytochromes
20
Model for energy release in ETC
21
ETC in prokaryotes
23
ATP yield from aerobic respiration
24
Comparison of three types of metabolism
25
Remember we are focusing on catabolic reactions
Generate ATP for later use by cell Generate precursors for other pathways Need to re-oxidize coenzymes for continual use
26
Precursor metabolites
