1
It’s all about ATP
2
How do you get it?
4
PMF
6
ATP synthesis using the PMF is ancient
7
Cytosolic enzymes convert glucose to pyruvate The ante is 2 ATP but you get 4 if you win Plus reducing power (that’s where it’s at) (and we’re not even in the mitochondrion yet)
8
In the cytosol
9
Still in the cytosol
10
OK, back to the mitochondrion
11
porin Cardiolipin, 76% protein
12
The BIG picture
13
Coupled to e- transport 2C +4C 6C Reducing power with carbon loss Free lunch 5C 4C Kreb Tricarboxylic Citric acid Cycle
14
Harnessing the reducing power Converting the redox potential into the PMF
17
2 will get you 4: the Q cycle
18
Coupled to e- transport 5C 4C Remember this step?
19
matrix
20
Down to water
21
Now, drive ATP with the PMF
