Study Notes
Phosphorylation Reactions that Generate ATP
-
Substrate-level phosphorylation: Direct transfer of a phosphate group from a phosphorylated compound (substrate) to ADP to form ATP.
- Occurs during glycolysis
- Example: Phosphate group transfer from phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to ADP to form pyruvate and ATP
Oxidative Phosphorylation
- Production of ATP using energy derived from redox reactions of an electron transport chain
- Final phase of cellular respiration
- Occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells
- Example: ATP generated during aerobic respiration
Photophosphorylation
- ATP formation using energy from sunlight in photosynthesis
- Occurs in the chloroplasts of plants
- Example: Light energy conversion into chemical energy during light reactions of photosynthesis
