Chapter 7 Biological Oxidation
Biological oxidation is the cellular process in which the organic substances release energy (ATP), produce CO2 and H2O through oxidative-reductive reactions. organic substances: carbohydrate, fat and protein
7.1 Principal of Redox Reaction The electron-donating molecule in a oxidation-reduction reaction is called the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant:for example: Fe2+ (ferrous) lose -e Fe3+ (ferric) gain +e
Several forms of Biological Oxidation Redox reaction = reduction-oxidation reaction Several forms of Biological Reduction 1. Loss of electrons 2. Dehydrogenation 3. Oxygenation 1. Gain of electrons 2. Hydrogenation 3. Deoxygenation
oxidation-reduction potential ( or redox potential), E : it is a measure of the affinity of a substance for electrons. It decide the loss (or the gain) of electrons. • A positive E: the substance has a higher affinity for electrons , accept electrons easily. • A negative E: the substance has a lower affinity for electrons , donate electrons easily.
E0`, the standard redox potential for a substance :is measured under stander condition(25℃, 1mmol/L reaction substance),at pH7, and is expressed in volts.
Section 7.2 Respiration Chain and Oxidative Phosphorylation
7.2.1 Respiratory Chain • Term: A chain in the mitochondria consists of a number of redox carriers for transferring electrons from the substrate to molecular oxygen to form oxygen ion, which combines with protons to form water.
Redox carriersincluding 4 protein complexes 1.Complex I: NADH:ubiquinoneoxidoreductase NADH:CoQ oxidoreductase 2.Complex II: Succinatedehydrogenase 3.Complex III: cytochrome bc1(ubiquinone Cyt coxidoreductase) 4.Complex IV: cytochrome oxidase

Sequence of respiratory chain Principles: • e- tend to flow from a redox pair with a lower E°to one with a higher E° • In the e--transport chain, e--carriers are arranged in order of increasing redox potential, making possible the gradual release of energy stored in NADH, FADH2

There are two respiratory chains • NADH respiratory chain NADH Complex Ⅰ CoQ Complex Ⅲ cytochrome c Complex Ⅳ O2 • Succinate (FADH2) respiratory chain Succinate ComplexⅡ CoQ ComplexⅢ cytochrome c ComplexⅣ O2
FADH2 respiration chain NADH respiration chain
7.2.2 Oxidative Phosphorylation • The oxidation of organic nutritions produces the energy-rich molecules, NADH and FADH2. • The oxidation of NADH or FADH2 in mitochondrial is the electron transferring through respiration chain. • The free energy produced in electron transferring supports the phosphorylation of ADP to form ATP. • The oxidation of NADH or FADH2 and the formation of ATP are coupled process, called Oxidation Phosphorylation.
The Chemiosmotic Theory • The free energy of electron transport is conserved by pumping protonsfrom the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space so as tocreate an electrochemical H+ gradient across the inner mitochondrialmembrane. The electrochemical potential of this gradient is harnessedto synthesize ATP. Peter Mitchell
Electrochemical H+ gradient (Proton-motive force) 2 components involved 1. Chemical potential energy due to difference in [H+] in two regions separated by a membrane 2. Electrical potential energy that results from theseparation of charge when a proton moves across the membrane without a electron.

β-subunit take up ADP and Pi to form ATP ADP + Pi ATP Each of 3 b-subunits contains an active site F1: multisubunit complex that catalyzes ATP synthesis F0 = proton-conducting transmembrane unit
When protons flow back through F0 channel, γ-subunit is rotated by the rotation of c ring, then the conformations of β-subunits are changed, this lead to the synthesis and release of ATP. To form a ATP need 3 protons flow into matrix. H+ flow β-subunit has three conformations:T (tight), L (loose), O (open)

P/O ratios • P/O ratio is the rate of phosphate incorporated into ATP to atoms of O2 utilized. It measure the number of ATP molecules formed per two electrons transfer through the respiratory chain. • NADH respiratory chain : 2.5, • FADH2 respiratory chain: 1.5
During two electrons transfer through NADH respiratory chain, ten protons are pumped out of the matrix. • To synthesis and translocation an ATP, four protons are needed. • So, two electrons transport can result in 2.5 ATP. • To succinate respiratory chain , two electrons transport can result in 1.5 ATP.
Regulation of Oxidative Phosphorylation • 1.PMF (proton motive force) regulate the electron transport. higher PMF lower rate of transport • 2.ADP concentration resting condition: energy demanded is low, ADP concentration is low, the speed of Oxidative Phosphorytion is low. active condition: the speed is high.
