Cellular Respiration
Glycolysis Energy investment: products
(-2ATP) 2 three-carbon molecules (G3P) Glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate
how much ATP is produced in oxidative and substrate- level phosphorylation
(28 oxidative phosphorylation + 4 substrate- level phosphorylation) = 32 or 30
why is phosphofructokinase so important
- (Remember) phosphofructokinase is used to catalyze fructose 6- phosphate into fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate with the use of ATP. - when this happens, the glucose HAS to go through glycolysis. (irreversible) - it's an allosteric enzyme, which can be used to regulate the rate at which cellular respiration occurs
inhibitors of phosphofructokinase?
- ATP (from pyruvate, citrate, or ETC) - citrate (citric acid cycle)
Glycolysis Energy payoff: How is ATP made
- ATP is made through oxidation reactions 1. Phosphates are added when the glucose molecule is oxidized 2. the electrons lost in oxidation create NADH 3. Enough energy is released to attach a phosphate to the end of the three carbon molecule 4. That same phosphate is then used for phosphorylation of ADP 5. ADP + P = ATP 6. Then, there's a remaining phosphate, which is also converted into ATP.
Glycolysis: energy payoff
- ATP is produced through substrate level phosphorylation - NAD+ -> NADH because of the electrons released through oxidation of glucose
Final electron acceptor in Fermentation? Aerobic respiration? anaerobic respiration?
- Alchohol Fer (acetaldehyde) - Lactic Acid Fer (pyruvate) - Aerobic (oxygen) - Anaerob (ion sulfate)
fermentation
- a catabolic pathway that produces a limited amount of ATP from glucose without the use of an electron transport chain (oxygen) and that produces either ethyl alcohol or lactic acids
what is common for fermentation, anaerobic, and aerobic?
- all go through glycolysis - 2 ATP production in glycolysis - electron carrier is NAD+ - go through substrate- level phosphorylation
Fermentation versus anaerobic respiration
- anaerobic respiration still uses the electron transport chain and has a final respiratory electron acceptor, but it's just not oxygen. - Fermentation does not use the electron transport chain. It doesn't have a final respiratory electron acceptor
NAD+
- electron carrier - electron acceptor - oxidizing agent (because it accepts electrons) - coenzyme
substrate-level phosphorylation
- enzyme catalyzed production of ATP by direct addition of a phosphate to ADP by an intermediate substrate in catabolism of glucose.
types of catabolic pathways
- fermentation - aerobic respiration
oxidative phosphorylation versus substrate-level phosphorylation
- oxidative produces more ATP than substrate - Oxidative adds an inorganic phosphate to ADP whereas substrate-level adds a phosphate to ADP from an organic (intermediate) molecule that resulted from the catabolism of glucose in glycolysis
oxidative phosphorylation
- production of ATP from the redox reactions that occur in the electron transport chain
NADH symbolizes
- trapped energy (from electrons accepted) that can be "tapped" later to create ATP when it is given to oxygen

Cellular Respiration steps
1. Glycolysis 2. Pyruvate oxidation +Citric Acid Cycle 3. Oxidative Phosphorylation
General overview of what occurs in the three steps
1. Glycolysis= breaks down glucose > pyruvate 2. A. Pyruvate oxidation= pyruvate > Acetyl CoA B. Citric Acid Cycle = Acetyl CoA > CO2 3. Oxidative Phosphorylation= electrons given off from the first two stages as NADH are given off to oxygen forming water
OK. one last time state what fermentation is
1. fermentation includes glycolysis plus the regeneration of NAD+ by giving the electrons from NADH to pyruvate. 2. then NAD+ can go back to oxidizing glucose without the use of oxygen 3. The pyruvate is then turned into either alcohol or lactic acid
What happens in glycolysis
1. glucose a 6 carbon molecule is split into 2 three carbon molecules 2. the three carbon molecules become oxidized (losing electrons and hydrogens) 3. Formation of 2 pyruvate
explain what happens in the electron transport chain in terms glucose and oxygen
1. glucose loses two hydrogens (2 electrons 2 protons) 2. 2 electrons and a proton are carried in NAD+ 3. NAD+ > NADH 4. the lone proton is lost as a hydrogen ion (H+) 5. NADH travels to the top of the electron transport chain 6. O2 is at the bottom where it will accept the electrons and the hydrogen proton. 7. results in H2O
Citric Acid Cycle: step 6
1. oxidation of succinate 2. 2 hydrogens are added to FAD making FADH2

Cellular Respiration is an (endergonic/exergonic) reaction because it's delta G - free energy- is (positive/negative), which indicates that the reaction (doesn't occur spontaneously/occurs spontaneously), which means it (does need energy/ doesn't need energy)
Cellular Respiration is an exergonic reaction because it's delta G is negative, which indicates that the reaction occurs spontaneously, which means it doesn't need energy.

Oxygen (O2) is used directly in which part of cellular respiration?
ETC
(T/F) The citric acid cycle and glycolysis do NOT produce ATP
FALSE. The citric acid cycle and glycolysis do produce small amounts of ATP through substrate-level phosphorylation
Glycolysis: (T/F) Glycolysis can only occur in the presence of oxygen.
False. Glycolysis can occur in the absence of oxygen, but if there is oxygen present, it then proceeds through pyruvate oxidation , citric cycle, oxidative phosphorylation. IF No oxygen is present -> Fermentation
(T/F): Since in the electron transport chain, ATP is produced because of the highly electronegative oxygen pulling the electrons down, if no oxygen was present, then no ATP would be produced.
False. It's true that the oxygen is highly electronegative and pulls down the electrons in the electron transport chain, but ATP can still be produced through fermentation ( NO ETC) or anaerobic respiration (ETC)

what's the big idea of the ETC
The ETC shows how ATP is not made directly. Instead of energy from glucose going straight to ATP (which would cause a great loss of energy), the ETC uses electron carries (NADH & FADH2) to break the fall of energy into smaller steps which releases energy at a manageable amount

in cellular respiration what becomes oxidized? reduced?
oxidized: glucose C6H12O6 -> 6CO2 reduced: oxygen 6O2 -> 6H2O
How does fermentation occur without the use of an electron transport chain or oxygen ?
oxidizing glucose does not need to involve an oxygen because all oxidizing means is losing electrons to an electron acceptor. So in order for fermentation to occur, it has to oxidize the NADH to become NAD+ to continue using that same NADH. the electrons lost are given to pyruvate (made in glycolysis) which is then produced into alcohol or lactic acid
