Study Notes

Cellular Respiration Introduction

  • Cellular respiration is a vital metabolic pathway on Earth.
  • It is considered both elegant and fascinating, but also complex.
  • The process is not daunting once understood.
  • The notes will cover the process at a high level, focusing on 3 major stages.

Cellular Respiration: The Process

  • Cellular respiration is the process by which living cells break down glucose molecules to release energy.
  • The energy is released in the form of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate).

Stages of Cellular Respiration

  • Glycolysis:
    • Glucose, a six-carbon sugar, is chemically transformed.
    • It is converted into two molecules of pyruvate, a three-carbon molecule.
    • ATP is produced and NAD+ is converted to NADH.
    • Occurs in the cytosol (cytoplasm).
    • Aerobic and Anaerobic respiration are possible branching paths.
  • Pyruvate Oxidation:
    • Pyruvate from glycolysis enters the mitochondrial matrix.
    • It's converted into a two-carbon molecule bound to Coenzyme A called acetyl CoA.
    • Carbon dioxide is released, and NAD is generated.
  • Citric Acid (Krebs) Cycle:
    • Acetyl CoA combines with a four-carbon molecule and goes through a cyclical set of reactions.
    • This regenerates the four-carbon starting molecule.
    • ATP, NADH, and FADH2 are generated, and carbon dioxide is released.
  • Oxidative Phosphorylation:
    • NADH and FADH2 deposit electrons in the electron transport chain.
    • Electrons move down the chain releasing energy to pump protons out of the matrix.
    • Protons flow back creating a gradient, which drives the production of ATP.
    • Oxygen accepts electrons and protons to form water.

ATP Production Summary

  • Glycolysis - 2 ATPs
  • Krebs Cycle - 2 ATPs
  • Oxidative Phosphorylation - 34 ATPs
  • Total ATP produced: 38 ATPs
