1
Cells: Metabolism and Protein Synthesis
2
Mitochondria: Cell Power Energy => Work O2 required to completely capture food energy into ATP Small amounts of ATP formed in cytoplasm, but mostly in mitochondria
3
Cytoplasm vs. Mitochondria Anaerobic Glycolysis 2 ATP / Glucose Lactic Acid Aerobic Oxidative Phos. 36-38 ATP / Glucose CO2 & H2O
4
O 2, CO 2, and H 2 O revisited O2 “receives” H+ --> H2O CO2 and H2O is produced O2 is consumed THAT’S LIFE
5
Protein Synthesis: The Root of Regulation Enzymes Regulate Bio - Chemistry Enzymes are Proteins Protein Synthesis is Directed by DNA
6
Cast of Characters Nucleus: DNA & RNA transcription Ribosomes: mRNA & tRNA & Translation
7
Supporting Cast Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum: Where proteins associated with membranes are made Golgi Apparatus: Where proteins are modified and packaged
8
RER and Golgi:
9
Proteins Synthesis: The Map Transcription: mRNA “copy” of DNA “code” in the nucleus Translation: assemble protein outside the nucleus
10
Cracking the Code Proteins are chains of amino acids in specific sequences DNA is arranged in 3-base pair “codons” Each codon “spells” either a specific amino acid, START or STOP.
11
Protein “Assembly” Ribosomes arrange mRNA tRNA carries specific amino acids match mRNA codons = amino acids
