CELLULAR RESPIRATION
2
Overall Process C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + ENERGY Purpose: Organisms routinely break down complex molecules in controlled steps and use energy released (in the form of ATP) from this catabolic process to do work.
3
ATP – adenosine triphosphate
4
Phosphate bonds PO 4 bonds are high energy bonds –Require energy to make –Release energy when broken
5
Phosphorylation Adding a phosphate group to any molecule –Ex: ADP + P i ATP Oxidative phosphorylation – phosphorylation results from redox reactions Substrate-level phosphorylation – phosphate group transfers from a molecule (“substrate”) instead of ADP + P i ADP
7
How ATP Drives Cellular Work Transport Work: ATP Phosphorylates Transport Proteins Mechanical Work: ATP Phosphorylates Motor Proteins Chemical Work: ATP Phosphorylates Key Reactants Phosphate groups are removed and recycled as work is performed ATP ADP + P

Cellular Respiration Divided into 3 parts: 1. Glycolysis 2. Krebs Cycle (aka Citric Acid Cycle) or Fermentation 3. Oxidative phosphorylation (ETC & Chemiosmosis)
10
1. Glycolysis Breakdown of glucose into pyruvate in cytoplasm w/ or w/o presence of O 2 2 phases: –Investment phase: use 2 ATP to break up glucose into 2 PGAL (C-C-C-p) –Payoff phase: each PGAL turns into pyruvate (C-C-C) Each PGAL pyruvate change makes 2 ATPs via substrate level phosphorylation and 1 NADH via redox
13
2. Krebs Cycle (aka citric acid cycle) Occurs in presence of O 2 Occurs in inner space or matrix of mitochondria Complete oxidation of glucose to CO 2 occurs here
14
1. Pyruvate is oxidized into Acetyl CoA reducing NAD + into NADH on the way CO 2 is formed 2. Acetyl CoA + oxaloacetic acid → citric acid
15
3. Citric acid is oxidized forming 2 CO 2 as waste This becomes oxaloacetic acid again @ end of cycle This oxidation powers the reduction of 3 NAD + 3 NADH and 1 FAD + FADH 2 as well as the phosphorylation of ADP ATP. Also get e - ’s and protons (H + ) for ETC/Chemiosomosis
18
ETC Occurs in the inner membrane of mitochondrial matrix Energy released as e - travels down ETC is used to establish a proton gradient
19
Final electron acceptor is O 2 2H + (from FADH 2 and NADH) 2e - (from FADH 2 and NADH) ½ O 2 H 2 O!
21
Key Points No ATP is generated during ETC; ATP comes from chemiosmosis! Source of e - = NADH and FADH 2 reduction Source of H + = same as above!
22
Phosphorylation… 1.Photophosphorylation – plants use energy from sun to drive phosphorylation of ADP ATP 2.Substrate-level phosphorylation – glycolysis and Krebs cycle use proteins (substrates) to phosphorylate ADP ATP 3.Oxidative phosphorylation – in ETC, redox reactions drive production of ATP This is where most of ATP generated from cell respiration comes from!
24
Fermentation Process whereby cells produce ATP without O 2 Alcohol fermentation – pyruvate is converted to ethanol CO 2 released Lactic acid fermentation – pyruvate is reduced directly by NADH to form lactate No CO 2 released
