Glycolysis and Fermentation What’s so sweet about Sugar?
Objectives • Discuss ATP and where the ‘energy’ is • Describe what fermentation is and where the ‘energy’ is • Design an experiment to ‘test’ fermentation • Weigh the merits of fermentation vs. respiration • Recognize/explain what happens in a RedOx reaction
Thinking it Through • CH4 (methane) C2H5OH H3C-CH2-OH (ethanol) C8H18 CH3(CH2)6CH3 (octane) • H2O CO2 • Similarities in components/structure? • Differences in behavior? • Differences in structure?
So where are ‘calories’? Energy (heat) needed to raise 1g water, 1oC Why are there more calories? Saturated Fat
OIL RIG OIL = Oxidation Is Loss of electrons RIG = Reduction Is Gain of electrons

Oxidized Form Reduced Form
Oxidized Form Reduced Form NAD+ NADH
“ATP- molecule used to store and transfer energy” Phosphate Groups
“ATP- molecule used to store and transfer energy” • Why not just separate? • What does this mean in terms of ‘energy’?
How does breaking a bond ‘release’ energy? Same thing shown with a bit more detail… http://course1.winona.edu/sberg/ChemStructures/Atphydrl.gif
Glycolysis • Glyco – glucose/sugar • Lysis – “to loosen”, take apart
Glycolysis Glucose (6 Carbons)
Glycolysis Glucose (6 Carbons) 2 ATP 2 ADP
Glycolysis Glucose (6 Carbons) 2 ATP 2 NAD+ 2 ADP
Glycolysis Glucose (6 Carbons) 2 ATP 2 NAD+ 2 ADP 2 NADH
Glycolysis Glucose (6 Carbons) 2 ATP 2 NAD+ 2 ADP 2 NADH NAD+ is reduced to “NADH”

NADH is oxidized into NAD+ Lactic Acid 3 Carbons Pyruvate 3 Carbons Fermentation(Lactic Acid) 2 NADH 2 NAD+ Pyruvate is reduced and forms Lactic Acid
CO2 NADH is oxidized into NAD+ Ethanol 2 Carbons Pyruvate 3 Carbons Fermentation(Alcoholic) CO2 2 NADH 2 NAD+ Pyruvate is reduced and forms Ethanol
Fermentation • Keep Glycolysis going - oxidizes NADH into NAD+ • Glycolysis – 2 ATP • “NO” O2 present • Lactic Acid • Alcoholic • Ethanol - CO2
Here’s the claim: Glycolysis – Glucose + 2ATP Pyruvate + 4ATP Fermentation (no O2 present) Pyruvate + NADH ethanol + CO2 + NAD+ What can you test? Conditions needed? How? Rank in terms of: feasibility, safety, ‘fun’
Optimizations • We’ve proposed testing for components • Are all tests best done under same conditions? • Concept: limiting components. How do you max your yield (or sensitivity) for: • Glucose • CO2 • ETOH
More? • What will your solution look like? • “murky”? • How do you speed it up? • What conditions do we WANT?
