Cellular Respiration Notes
Objective: I can explain how ATP is made and what is chemiosmosis. Agenda: Cellular Respiration Notes ATP Worksheet ATP Expense and Revenue worksheet
2
Making energy! ATP The point is to make ATP!
3
The energy needs of life
Organisms are _____________ systems What do we need energy for? ___________ building biomolecules reproduction _____________ active transport temperature regulation Which is to say… if you don’t eat, you die… because you run out of energy. The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics takes over!
4
Where do we get the energy from?
Work of life is done by energy coupling use _________ (catabolic) reactions to fuel ___________ (anabolic) reactions energy + + energy + +
5
ATP Living economy Fueling the body’s economy
eat high energy _________________ food = carbohydrates, lipids, proteins break them down _________________________ capture released energy in a form the cell can use Need an ______________________ a way to pass energy around need a short term energy storage molecule ATP Whoa! Hot stuff!
6
Build once, use many ways
ATP __________________ modified nucleotide nucleotide = __________ + _______ + Pi AMP AMP + Pi ADP ADP + Pi ATP adding phosphates is _____________ Marvel at the efficiency of biological systems! Build once = re-use over and over again. Start with a nucleotide and add phosphates to it to make this high energy molecule that drives the work of life. Let’s look at this molecule closer. Think about putting that Pi on the adenosine-ribose ==> EXERGONIC or ENDERGONIC? How efficient! Build once, use many ways high energy bonds

How does ATP store energy?
I think he’s a bit unstable… don’t you? How does ATP store energy? P O– O –O P O– O –O P O– O –O P O– O –O P O– O –O ADP AMP ATP _______________________________ a lot of stored energy in each bond most energy stored in 3rd Pi ____________________________________________ Bonding of negative Pi groups is unstable spring-loaded Pi groups “pop” off easily & release energy Not a happy molecule Add 1st Pi Kerplunk! Big negatively charged functional group Add 2nd Pi EASY or DIFFICULT to add? DIFFICULT takes energy to add = same charges repel Is it STABLE or UNSTABLE? UNSTABLE = 2 negatively charged functional groups not strongly bonded to each other So if it releases Pi releases ENERGY Add 3rd Pi MORE or LESS UNSTABLE? MORE = like an unstable currency • Hot stuff! • Doesn’t stick around • Can’t store it up • Dangerous to store = wants to give its Pi to anything Instability of its P bonds makes ATP an excellent energy donor

How does ATP transfer energy?
+ ATP ADP _______________ releases energy ∆G = -7.3 kcal/mole can fuel other reactions _______________________ released Pi can transfer to other molecules destabilizing the other molecules enzyme that phosphorylates = _____________ How does ATP transfer energy? By phosphorylating Think of the 3rd Pi as the bad boyfriend ATP tries to dump off on someone else = phosphorylating How does phosphorylating provide energy? Pi is very electronegative. Got lots of OXYGEN!! OXYGEN is very electronegative. Steals e’s from other atoms in the molecule it is bonded to. As e’s fall to electronegative atom, they release energy. Makes the other molecule “unhappy” = unstable. Starts looking for a better partner to bond to. Pi is again the bad boyfriend you want to dump. You’ve got to find someone else to give him away to. You give him away and then bond with someone new that makes you happier (monomers get together). Eventually the bad boyfriend gets dumped and goes off alone into the cytoplasm as a free agent = free Pi.

Another example of Phosphorylation…
The first steps of ________________ beginning the breakdown of glucose to make ATP glucose C-C-C-C-C-C Those phosphates sure make it uncomfortable around here! C H P ATP 2 hexokinase ADP 2 phosphofructokinase These are the very first steps in respiration — making ATP from glucose. Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (F1,6bP) Dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) 1st ATP used is like a match to light a fire… initiation energy / activation energy. The Pi makes destabilizes the glucose & gets it ready to split. fructose-1,6bP P-C-C-C-C-C-C-P DHAP P-C-C-C G3P C-C-C-P
10
ATP / ADP cycle _____________ ATP transfers Pi too easily
only short term energy storage carbohydrates & fats are long term energy storage ATP respiration 7.3 kcal/mole ADP P + A working muscle recycles over 10 million ATPs per second Whoa! Pass me the glucose (and O2)!
11
Cells spend a lot of time making ATP!
The point is to make ATP! What’s the point?
12
But… How is the proton (H+) gradient formed?
catalytic head rod rotor ATP synthase Enzyme channel in mitochondrial membrane _________________ H+ flow down concentration gradient flow like water over water wheel flowing H+ cause change in shape of ATP synthase enzyme powers bonding of Pi to ADP _______________ ADP P + ATP But… How is the proton (H+) gradient formed?
