chapter 8 bio
what is the most important Potential E?
Chemical E which is E stored in a bond
Two types of energy
Potential Energy: Stored Energy Kinetic Energy: Energy in motion
to produce ATP E you need ____
Redox reaction
catabolic pathways
- works with exergonic-energy realeaseing pathway -Metabolic pathways that release energy by breaking down complex molecules into simpler compounds.
how can the active lower Ea through 4 mechanisms
-correct orientation of substrate -strain substrate bonds -provide a favorable microenviornment -covalently bond to the substrate
The Cycle of Enzyme-Substrate Interactions
1) Substrates enters the active site 2) both of them change shape, promote reactions 3) Product is released, enzyme is ready
two laws of thermodynamics
1. CONSERVATION E LAW: " E neither created/ destroyed - CONSTANT E "E in universe is constant (same) 2. ENTROPY LAW: Randomness/disordered "E will transform from high order E to low ordered E" aka low Entropy is high order E / high entropy is low order E
cooperativity
A kind of allosteric regulation whereby a shape change in one subunit of a protein caused by substrate binding is transmitted to all the other subunits, facilitating binding of additional substrate molecules to those subunits. --is allosteric because binding by a substrate to one active site affects catalysis in a different active site
Are most chemical reactions at equilibrium in living cells? A)yes B)no C)only the exergonic reactions D)all reactions except those powered by ATP hydrolysis
B) NO At equilibrium, the free energy change is zero, and no work can be done. A cell at equilibrium is dead!
metabolic pathway
Begins with a specific molecule, which is then altered in a series of defined steps, resulting in a certain product. Each step is catalyzed by a specific enzyme
When ATP turns into ADP,
E was released but also electron got released- oxidation ADP to Atp means gain E and Electron - reduction
ATP/ADP
Energy is released when a phosphate group is removed
How Enzymes Lower the EA Barrier
Enzymes catalyze reactions by lowering the EA barrier Enzymes do not affect the change in free energy (∆G); instead, they hasten reactions that would occur eventually - Enzyme is never used up, after chem reaction with substrate happens they regain shape and is ready for another set. You only use enzyme by old age. -enzyme is specific by working with only 1 substrate (reactant)
Gives free energy
G is the thermodynamics criteria for determining the spontaneity of a reaction
chemical equilibrium
In a chemical reaction, the state in which the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction, so that the relative concentrations of the reactants and products do not change with time.
If this is an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, how can the rate of this reaction be increased beyond the maximum velocity in this figure? Increase the substrate concentrations. Increase the amount of enzyme. Increase the amount of energy. any of the above There is no way to increase the rate of the reaction any further.
Increase the amount of enzyme.
why do we need ATP
It is the energy needed for our cells to do work.
How do living organisms create macromolecules, organelles, cells, tissues, and complex higher-order structures? A) The laws of thermodynamics do not apply to living organisms. B) Living organisms create order by using energy from the sun. C)Living organisms create order locally, but the energy transformations generate waste heat that increases the entropy of the universe.
Living organisms create order locally, but the energy transformations generate waste heat that increases the entropy of the universe.
Firefly luciferase catalyzes the reaction luciferin ATP ↔ adenyl-luciferin pyrophosphate then the next reaction occurs spontaneously: adenyl-luciferin O2 → oxyluciferin H2O CO2 AMP light What is the role of luciferase? Luciferase makes the G of the reaction more negative. Luciferase lowers the transition energy of the reaction. Luciferase alters the equilibrium point of the reaction. Luciferase makes the reaction irreversible. all of the above
Luciferase lowers the transition energy of the reaction.
The oxidation of glucose to CO2 and H2O is highly exergonic: G = -636 kcal/mole. Why doesn't glucose spontaneously combust? The glucose molecules lack the activation energy at room temperature. There is too much CO2 in the air. CO2 has higher energy than glucose. The formation of six CO2 molecules from one glucose molecule decreases entropy. The water molecules quench the reaction.
The glucose molecules lack the activation energy at room temperature.
A reaction has a ∆G of 5.6 kcal/mol. Which of the following would most likely be true? A)The reaction could be coupled to power an endergonic reaction with a G of 8.8 kcal/mol. B)The reaction would result in a decrease in entropy (S) and an increase in the energy content (H) of the system. C)The reaction would result in an increase in entropy (S) and a decrease in the energy content (H) of the system. D)The reaction would result in products with a greater free-energy content than in the initial reactants.
The reaction would result in an increase in entropy (S) and a decrease in the energy content (H) of the system.
bioenergetics
The study of how organisms manage their energy resources.
active site
a region on an enzyme that binds to a protein or other substance during a reaction.
endergonic reaction
absorbs free energy from its surroundings and is nonespontaneous -anabolic -more energy on product than reactant
phosphorylation
add a phosphate group energy storing
only way to lose enzyme is
ageing
Enzymes
all are proteins, biological catalysts
Adenosine monophosphate (AMP) activates the enzyme phosphofructokinase (PFK) by binding at a site distinct from the substrate binding site. This is an example of cooperative activation. allosteric activation. activation by an enzyme cofactor. coupling exergonic and endergonic reactions.
allosteric activation
noncompetative inhibators
allosteric site, causing the enzyme to change shape and making the active site less effective Examples of inhibitors include toxins, poisons, pesticides, and antibiotics
redox reaction
an oxidation-reduction reaction ex; OIL - Oxidation is loss of Electrons (pos charged in ion molecule;e means it got oxidized) RIG- Reduction is gaining of electrons ( charge will be anion bc more e- than proton)
cofactors
are nonprotein enzyme helpers Cofactors may be inorganic (such as a metal in ionic form) or organic An organic cofactor is called a coenzyme which include vitamins
ATP to ADP and Vis versa
becomes adp by releasing energy or by doing work exergonic -adp becomes atp through cellular respiration which is a couple reaction

Vioxx and other prescription nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are potent inhibitors of the cycloxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme. High substrate concentrations reduce the efficacy of inhibition by these drugs. These drugs are competitive inhibitors. noncompetitive inhibitors. allosteric regulators. prosthetic groups. feedback inhibitors.
competitive inhibitors.
three types of inhibition mechanism
competitive, non competitive allosteric inhibition and non competitive feedback inhibition
intermediates

anabolic pathways
endergonic ex photosynthesis. consumes energy to build complex molecules from simpler ones
To do work, cells manage energy resources by
energy coupling, the use of an exergonic process to drive an endergonic one
Endergonic
energy is absorbed or produced for ex photosynthesis 6O2+6H2O = C6H2O+6O2
Exergonic
energy is released for ex cellular respiration C6H2O+6O2= 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36 net ATP
free energy

Protein shape can be denaturalized by ___ for ex___
environmental factors ex 1. Temperature. 98.6 F body - thermofilic can be 110 C 2. pH- Enzyme in stomach will try to maintain pH less than 2. pH lower than 2 enzyme in intestine will die. all enzymes have own favorable temp, pH and salt concentration of 3. Salt
cycle of enzyme and substrate interactions
enzyme has shape and the substrate which is a reactant is supposed to have same shape which can fit into the enzyme. Enzyme protein sends signal which attracts substrate. Substrate will bind to binding side called active site through induced fit. the other side that doesn't bind with the substrate is called an allosteric site or remote site. When they have reaction it makes an enzyme substrate complex which is an intermediate temporary product. While they combine together inside of the active side the chemical reaction happens and as a product they will make original enzyme will regain the shape and product produces a different one
open system that has input and output like living organisms never reach
equilibrium. the reaction will always be negative which is exergonic
In the energy diagram below, which of the lettered energy changes would be the same in both the enzyme-catalyzed and uncatalyzed reactions?

Non-competitive allosteric inhibition
inhibitor doesn't occupy active site it binds with allosteric site binds to surface and changes shape of active sit enzyme therefore the substrate cannot bind
chemical reaction
metabolism
Ea (activation E)
minimum required E to ignitiate Chemical Reaction. w/o Ea the enzyme substrate reaction will end
how do we know more energy on reactant ?
more complicated compound it means more energy stored because of covalent bond.
how do we know the energy is releasing?
more energy on reactant that means energy releasing, so catabolic or exergonic
exergonic reaction

When sodium chloride (table salt) crystals dissolve in water, the temperature of the solution decreases. This means that, for dissociation of Na+ and Cl- ions, A)the change in enthalpy (H) is negative. B)the change in enthalpy (H) is positive, but the change in entropy is greater. C)the reaction is endergonic, because it absorbs heat. D)the reaction must be coupled to an exergonic reaction. E)the reaction cannot occur spontaneously.
the change in enthalpy (H) is positive, but the change in entropy is greater.
The hydrolysis of ATP: ATP H2O → ADP Pi is exergonic, with a G of 7.3 kcal/mol under standard conditions. What is the source of the 7.3 kcal/mol released in this reaction? breaking the terminal phosphate bond in ATP the increase in entropy from breaking apart ATP both the energy released from breaking the terminal phosphate bond and the increase in entropy the difference between the potential energy in the bonds of ATP and the water molecule, minus the potential energy in the bonds of ADP and Pi
the difference between the potential energy in the bonds of ATP and the water molecule, minus the potential energy in the bonds of ADP and Pi
biolumenescence
the production of light by living things
noncompetitive feedback inhibition
the products of the reaction at the end of the pathway bind to a site other than the active site of an enzyme at or near the beginning of the pathway and block enzyme activity indirectly mostly with amino acid product - the own product binds with allosteric site and changes shape of active site usually for amino acid product
Metabolism
the totality of an organism's chemical reactions and is an emergent property of life that arises from interactions between molecules within the cell
Cells are not in equilibrium
they are open systems experiencing a constant flow of materials
enzymes dont affect the change in free energy instead
they hasten reactions that would occur eventually -only affect Ae
when entropy increase delta g decrease bc minus portion
when delta S decrease it means highly order
competitive inhibition
when molecules similar to a substrate compete for placement on the active site of an enzyme, Vmax is still possible is substrate concentration is highenough -inhibitor competes for the active site and bind first and inhibit the original substrate enzyme complex the reaction
More energy in the reactants the delta g
will be negative
