cellular respiration

consumption of O2 and make CO2 and H2O by cells
1) glycolysis and PDH complex
2) CAC
3)ETC

cellular respiration steps:

1) Acetyl-CoA made
2)Acetyl-CoA oxidized-makes CO2
3)Oxidized phosphorylation: O2-->H2O

pyruvate dehydrogenase complex

pyruvate to acetyl CoA with thioester, makes NADH

pyruvate dehydrogenase complex steps:

1)TPP to TPP via pyruvate dehydrogenase
-pyruvate to CO2
2)LA (ox) to LA via TPP to TPP
3)LA to LA (reduced) via CoA-SH to acetyl-CoA
4)LA (reduced) to LA (ox) via FAD to FADH2
-FADH2 to FAD via NAD+ to NADH

pyruvate dehydrogenase complex makes:

2-NADH
2-CO2
2-acetyl-CoA

cellular respiration steps:

What is made is cellular respiration:

1)
2-CO2
4-NADH
2-ATP
2-acetyl-CoA
2)
4-CO2
6-NADH
2-FADH2
2-ATP
3)
0-CO2
0-NADH
0-FADH2
28-ATP
1-H2O

citric acid cycle

happens in matrix of mitochondria-second phase of cellular respiration

Citric acid cycle step 1:

OAA to citrate via citrate synthase
-acetyl coa to coa-sh
-irreversible

Citric acid cycle step 2:

citrate to isocitrate via aconitase

Citric acid cycle step 3:

isocitrate to alpha ketoglutarate via isocitrate dehydrogenase
-NAD+ to NADH and O2
-irreversible

Citric acid cycle step 4:

alpha ketoglutarate to succinyl coa via alpha ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex
-NAD+ to NADH + O2
-irreversible

Citric acid cycle step 5:

succinyl coa to succinate via succinyl coa dehydrogenase
-GDP to GTP (redox)

Citric acid cycle step 6:

succinate to fumarate via succinate dehydrogenase
-FAD to FADH2 via Q to QH2

Citric acid cycle step 7:

fumarate to maltase via fumerase
-H2O made

Citric acid cycle step 8:

maltase to OAA via malate dehydrogenase
-NAD+ to NADH

PDH complex

when energy charge is high?

it inhibits ATP producing catabolic pathways and stimulate anabolic pathway, inhibit CAC and Gly, stimulate GNG.

electron transport chain picture:

carnitine shuttle

mechanism for moving acyl-coa into matrix

carnitine shuttle image

carnitine shuttle steps:

1)Acyl-Carnitine into matrix via Acyl-CoA to CoA-SH
-Help of CAT 1 (RLS of lipid ox, irreversible)
2)Acyl-Carnitine to carnitine via CoA-SH to Acyl-CoA
3)Carnitine to cytosol
-Help of CAT 2

beta oxidation

A metabolic sequence that breaks fatty acids down to two-carbon fragments that enter the citric acid cycle as acetyl CoA.

Beta oxidation image

beta oxidation step 1:

Acyl-CoA to enoyl-CoA hydratase via trans-enoyl-CoA
-FAD to FADH2

beta oxidation step 2:

enoyl-coa hydratase to beta-hydroxyacyl-coa dehydrogenase via L-beta-hydroxyacyl-coa dehyrdrogenase
-NAD+ to NADH

beta oxidation step 3:

beta-hydroxyacyl-coa dehydrogenase to acyl-coa acetyltransferase (thiolase) via beta-ketoacyl-coa

Beta oxidation regulation

insulin:
- beta ox
+ gly
- gng
+ lipid biogenesis
+ glycogen synthesis
glucagon:
-gly
+ gng
- lipid biogenesis
- glycogen synthesis
+ beta ox
