27
Properties of Metabolic Pathways Separate Anabolic and Catabolic Pathways Steady-State Irreversible (overall): reversibility of individual steps First Committed (Exergonic) Step: others close to equilibrium Compartmentation (organelles & tissues): isoenzymes and transport Regulation (usually first committed step): often rate-limiting
28
Potential Futile Cycles (Regulation)
29
Steady State
30
Thermodynamics of individual steps A B G o’ = -RTlnK eq Not standard conditions or at equilibrium: G = G o’ +RTln([B]/[A]) Three Physiological Conditions: G o’ <<<<<<0 : G always negative Example: ATP hydrolysis G o’ >0 : near equilibrium, reversible, direction depends on actual [B]/[A] Example: Most reactions G o’ >>>>>>0 : G always positive, must be coupled Example: Phosphorylation of Glucose

G o’ >0

Regulation of Metabolic Pathways Specific Controls General Controls
34
Specific Controls Control of Enzyme Amount –Constitutive Enzymes –Inducible Enzymes –Repressible Enzymes Control of Enzyme Activity –Regulatory Enzymes –Effectors (Ligands)
35
General Controls (Integration of Cellular or Organism Functions) Internal Effectors –Catabolite Repression –Energy Charge –Reduction Potential External Effectors (e.g. hormones) Significance: Efficiency and Flexibility!
