Study Notes
Anaerobic and Aerobic Exercise
- Anaerobic exercise refers to high-intensity, short-duration activities that rely on the anaerobic energy system for fuel.
- Aerobic exercise involves moderate-intensity, longer-duration activities that utilize the aerobic energy system.
Creatine-Phosphate Shuttle
- The Creatine-Phosphate shuttle is a high-energy phosphate transfer system that quickly generates ATP (adenosine triphosphate) for muscle contraction.
- It utilizes creatine phosphate to replenish ATP stores during short bursts of intense activity.
LDH Isozymes
- LDH isozymes are different forms of lactate dehydrogenase, an enzyme involved in the conversion of pyruvate to lactate.
- LDH isozymes are tissue-specific, with different ratios found in different tissues, impacting their metabolic profiles.
Glycolysis
- Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose into pyruvate, generating ATP.
- Pyruvate is the end product of glycolysis.
- Lactate is produced when conditions are anaerobic, and pyruvate is reduced.
Anaerobic System
- The anaerobic system is primarily used during anaerobic exercise.
- It includes the ATP-PC system (Creatine-Phosphate shuttle) and glycolysis.
Adenylate Kinase
- Adenylate kinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of AMP (adenosine monophosphate) and ATP into two ADP (adenosine diphosphate) molecules.
- This reaction generates ATP and contributes to energy production during exercise.
