Cellular Respiration Includes the catabolic pathways that break down energy-rich compounds to produce ATP Aerobic Respiration refers to those pathways that require oxygen
Summary Reaction Summarizes more than two dozen reactions that take place in different parts of the cell. C6H12O6 + O2 CO2 + H2O + ATP
Where the magic happens Intermembrane Space
Stages and Locations • Glycolysis • Occurs in the cytoplasm • Pyruvate Oxidation • Occurs in mitochondrial matrix
Stages and Locations • Krebs Cycle • Citric Acid Cycle (CAC) • Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle (TCA) • Occurs in mitochondrial matrix
Stages and Locations • Electron Transport Chainand Chemiosmosis • oxidative phosphorylation • Occurs in the inner mitochondrial membrane
2 Important Players in CR... NADH FADH2
NADH nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide Carries a lot of energy in its bonds Is produced all throughout CR
NADH At the ETC, NADH loses its electrons (oxidized) NADH NAD+ + H+ These donated e- drive ATP synthesis
NADH • For every NADH that is oxidized at the ETC, 3 ATP’s are made.
FADH2(flavin adenine dinucleotide) • Carries energy in its bonds • Produced at Krebs cycle • Oxidized at the ETC to produce ATP FADH2 FAD + 2H+
FADH2 • Only 2 ATP are produced for each FADH2 in the ETC
ATP Adenosine triphosphate Carries a large amount of energy in its bonds ATP is used by all cells to run cellular processes
ATP To release its energy ATP loses a phosphate group ATP ADP + Pi energy To make ATP: ADP + Pi ATP
Substrate-level Phosphorylation ATP is formed directly in an enzyme-catalyzed reaction A phosphate group is removed from a substrate molecule and combined with ADP forming ATP
Oxidative Phosphorylation • ATP is formed indirectly • Involves a # of sequential redoxrxns – with oxygen being the final e- acceptor • More complex than substrate level phosphorylation, but yields more ATP
