1. Chapter 7 Biological Oxidation

2. Biological oxidation is the cellular process in which the organic substances release energy (ATP), produce CO2 and H2O through oxidative-reductive reactions. organic substances: carbohydrate, fat and protein

3. 7.1 Principal of Redox Reaction The electron-donating molecule in a oxidation-reduction reaction is called the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant: for example: Fe 2+ (ferrous) lose -e Fe 3+ (ferric) gain +e

4. Several forms of Biological Oxidation 1. Loss of electrons 2. Dehydrogenation 3. Oxygenation Redox reaction = reduction-oxidation reaction Several forms of Biological Reduction 1. Gain of electrons 2. Hydrogenation 3. Deoxygenation

5. Áoxidation-reduction potential ( or redox potential), E : it is a measure of the affinity of a substance for electrons. It decide the loss (or the gain) of electrons. ÁA positive E: the substance has a higher affinity for electrons, accept electrons easily. A negative E: the substance has a lower affinity for electrons, donate electrons easily.

6.  E0`, the standard redox potential for a substance :is measured under stander condition(25 ℃, 1mmol/L reaction substance),at pH7, and is expressed in volts.

7. Section 7.2 Respiration Chain and Oxidative Phosphorylation

8. 7.2.1 Respiratory Chain Term: A chain in the mitochondria consists of a number of redox carriers for transferring electrons from the substrate to molecular oxygen to form oxygen ion, which combines with protons to form water.

29. NADH respiration chain FADH 2 respiration chain

30. The oxidation of organic nutritions produces the energy-rich molecules, NADH and FADH 2. The oxidation of NADH or FADH 2 in mitochondrial is the electron transferring through respiration chain. The free energy produced in electron transferring supports the phosphorylation of ADP to form ATP. The oxidation of NADH or FADH 2 and the formation of ATP are coupled process, called Oxidation Phosphorylation. 7.2.2 Oxidative Phosphorylation

31. The Chemiosmotic Theory The free energy of electron transport is conserved by pumping protons from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space so as to create an electrochemical H + gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. The electrochemical potential of this gradient is harnessed to synthesize ATP. Peter Mitchell

32. Electrochemical H + gradient (Proton-motive force) 2 components involved 1. Chemical potential energy due to difference in [H + ] in two regions separated by a membrane 2. Electrical potential energy that results from the separation of charge when a proton moves across the membrane without a electron.

36. Each of 3  -subunits contains an active site F1: multisubunit complex that catalyzes ATP synthesis F 0 = proton-conducting transmembrane unit β-subunit take up ADP and Pi to form ATP ADP + Pi ATP

37. H + flow β-subunit has three conformations:T (tight), L (loose), O (open) When protons flow back through F 0 channel, γ-subunit is rotated by the rotation of c ring, then the conformations of β-subunits are changed, this lead to the synthesis and release of ATP. To form a ATP need 3 protons flow into matrix.

40. P/O ratios P/O ratio is the rate of phosphate incorporated into ATP to atoms of O 2 utilized. It measure the number of ATP molecules formed per two electrons transfer through the respiratory chain. NADH respiratory chain : 2.5, FADH 2 respiratory chain: 1.5

41. During two electrons transfer through NADH respiratory chain, ten protons are pumped out of the matrix. To synthesis and translocation an ATP, four protons are needed. So, two electrons transport can result in 2.5 ATP. To succinate respiratory chain, two electrons transport can result in 1.5 ATP.

42. Regulation of Oxidative Phosphorylation 1.PMF (proton motive force) regulate the electron transport. higher PMF lower rate of transport 2.ADP concentration resting condition: energy demanded is low, ADP concentration is low, the speed of Oxidative Phosphorytion is low. active condition: the speed is high.
