Study Notes

Glycolysis

  • Inputs: Glucose, 2 ATP, 2 NAD+, 4 ADP + P
  • Outputs: 2 pyruvates, 4 ATP, 2 NADH + H+, 2 H2O
  • Location: Cytoplasm

Citric Acid Cycle (Krebs Cycle)

  • Inputs: 2 Acetyl CoA, 2 Oxaloacetate, 2 ADP + P, 6 NAD+, 2 FAD
  • Outputs: 4 CO2, 2 ATP, 6 NADH + H+, 2 FADH2
  • Location: Mitochondrial matrix

Electron Transport Chain (ETC)

  • Inputs: 10 NADH + H+, 2 FADH2
  • Outputs: 10 NAD+, 2 FAD, H2O, 34 ATP

Fermentation

  • Inputs: Glucose, 2 ATP
  • Outputs: 2 lactate or 2 alcohol, 2 CO2, 4 ATP
  • Occurs in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic process)

Metabolic Processes

  • Anabolic: Builds large molecules from small molecules
  • Catabolic: Breaks down large molecules for energy

Energy Reactions

  • Endergonic: Absorbs energy
  • Exergonic: Releases energy
  • Coupled reaction: One exergonic reaction provides energy for an endergonic reaction, e.g., ATP formation

Importance of NAD

  • Promotes cellular functions for energy creation, key in mitochondrial function
  • Transports electrons during cellular respiration; reduced to NADH, which carries electrons to the ETC

Oxidation and Reduction

  • Reduced: Electrons added to an atom or ion (removal of oxygen or addition of hydrogen)
  • Oxidized: Electrons combined with oxygen.

Oxidative Phosphorylation

  • Metabolic pathway where enzymes oxidize nutrients, releasing energy to produce ATP
  • Occurs in mitochondria, essential for cellular respiration

Summary of Inputs/Outputs

  • Glycolysis: Input - Glucose + 2 ATP; Output - 2 pyruvate, 4 ATP, NADPH, 2 H2O
  • Pyruvate Oxidation: Input - 2 Pyruvate; Output - 2 Acetyl CoA, 2 CO2, 2 NADH
  • Krebs Cycle: Input - 2 Acetyl CoA, 2 Oxaloacetate; Output - 4 CO2, 2 ATP, 6 NADH, 2 FADH2
  • ETC: Input - 10 NADH, 2 FADH2; Output - 10 NAD+, 2 FAD, H2O, 34 ATP
  • Fermentation: Input - 2 pyruvate; Output - 2 ATP, 2 NAD+, 2 ethanol or Lactate, 2 CO2

Review of Processes

  • Glycolysis: Occurs in cytoplasm, splits glucose into pyruvates, produces 2 ATP and NADH.
  • Krebs Cycle: Takes place in the mitochondrial matrix, removes energy from citric acid, produces ATP, NADH, and FADH2, generates CO2.
  • ETC: Series of proteins in the mitochondria generate the majority of ATP produced in cellular respiration (34 ATP).
