Cellular Respiration
**Important study hints**

paper and label
structures and steps
• Keep working on those
flash cards!

Respiration
• Organisms can be classified
based on how they obtain energy:
– Autotrophs
• Able to produce their own organic
molecules through photosynthesis
– Heterotrophs
• Live on organic compounds
produced by other organisms
• All organisms use cellular
respiration to extract energy
from organic molecules
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterotroph
4
Cellular respiration
• Cellular respiration is a series of
reactions…
– Oxidation – loss of electrons
– Reduction – gain of electron
– Dehydrogenation – lost electrons
are accompanied by protons
• A hydrogen atom is lost (1 electron,
1 proton)
http://chemwiki.ucdavis.edu/Analytical_Chemistry/Electrochemistry/Redox_Chemistry/Oxidizing_and_Reducing_Agents
5
Redox
• During redox reactions, electrons carry
energy from one molecule to another
– Redox reactions are often coupled with an
electron carrier (NAD+)

Redox
• Nicotinamide adenosine dinucleotide (NAD+)
– An electron carrier
– NAD+ accepts 2 electrons and 1 proton from
another molecule to become NADH
– Reaction is reversible

1. Enzymes that use NAD+
as a cofactor for oxidation
reactions bind NAD+ and the
substrate.
2. In an oxidation–reduction
reaction, 2 electrons and
a proton are transferred
to NAD+, forming NADH.
A second proton is
donated to the solution.
3. NADH diffuses away
and can then donate
electrons to other
molecules.

Note change
from textbook
• In overall cellular energy harvest
– Dozens of redox reactions take place
– Number of electron acceptors, including NAD+
• In the end, high-energy electrons from initial
chemical bonds have lost much of their energy
– Electrons are transferred to a final electron acceptor

• Aerobic respiration
– Final electron receptor is oxygen (O2)
• Anaerobic respiration
– Final electron acceptor is an inorganic molecule (not O2)
• Fermentation
– Final electron acceptor is an organic molecule, such as lactic acid or ethanol
Types of Cellular Respiration

Aerobic respiration
C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O
• Free energy = – 686 kcal/mol of glucose
– Free energy can be even higher than this in a cell
– This large amount of energy must be released in small steps rather than all at once.
– C6H12O6 (general form for 6 carbon sugar such as glucose)

Electron carriers
• Many types of carriers used
– Soluble, membrane-bound, move within
membrane
• All carriers can be easily oxidized and
reduced
– Some carry just electrons, some electrons
and protons
– NAD+ acquires 2 electrons and a proton to
become NADH

ATP
• Cells use ATP to drive endergonic
reactions
– ΔG (free energy) = –7.3 kcal/mol
– Compare with ΔG from complete
combustion of glucose = –686 kcal/mol
http://fgamedia.org/faculty/cholcroft/Bio45/miscellaneous_web_pages/Lectures/Metabolism/Metabolism_Intro.html
Cellular reactions can’t use all
the energy of glucose breakdown
at once, so cells must use
stepwise breakdown and
intermediaries such as ATP
15
• 2 mechanisms for ATP synthesis
1. Substrate-level phosphorylation
• Transfer phosphate group directly from substrate
molecule to ADP
• During glycolysis and Krebs cycle
2. Oxidative phosphorylation
• ATP synthase uses energy from a proton gradient
in the electron transport chain

Glycolysis • Converts 1 glucose (6 carbons) to 2
pyruvate (3 carbons)
• 10-step biochemical pathway
• Occurs in the cytoplasm
• 2 NADH produced by the reduction of NAD+
• Net production of 2 ATP molecules by substrate-level phosphorylation – (uses 2 ATPs and produces 4 total = 2
net ATPs)
• Fun fact – Only process that occurs in red blood
cells since they do not have mitochondria!

(Starting material)
Glycolysis begins
with the addition of
energy. Two high-
energy phosphates
(P) from two
molecules of ATP
are added to the
6-carbon molecule
glucose, producing
a 6-carbon
molecule with two
phosphates.
Then, the 6-carbon
molecule with two
phosphates is split in
two, forming two
3-carbon sugar
phosphates.
An additional
Inorganic phosphate
( Pi ) is incorporated
into each 3-carbon
sugar phosphate. An
oxidation reaction
converts the two
sugar phosphates
into intermediates
that can transfer a
phosphate to ADP to
form ATP. The
oxidation reactions
also yield NADH
giving a net energy
yield of 2 ATP and 2
NADH.

NADH must be recycled
• For glycolysis to continue, NADH must be recycled to NAD+ by either:
1. Aerobic respiration • Oxygen is available as the final
electron acceptor
• Produces significantly more ATP
2. Fermentation • Occurs when oxygen is not
available
• Organic molecule is the final electron acceptor
http://getyournotes.blogspot.com/2012/01/cellular-respiration-aerobic-and.html
24
Fate of pyruvate
• Depends on oxygen availability
– When oxygen is present,
pyruvate is oxidized to acetyl-
CoA which enters the Krebs
cycle
• Aerobic respiration
– Without oxygen, pyruvate is
reduced in order to oxidize
NADH back to NAD+
• Fermentation

Cycle
– Without oxygen, pyruvate is reduced by

• This oxidizes NADH back to NAD+
• This is important
because NAD+ must

glycolysis can
continue to operate
26
Pyruvate Oxidation
• In the presence of oxygen, pyruvate is
oxidized
– Occurs in the mitochondria in eukaryotes
• multienzyme complex called pyruvate dehydrogenase
catalyzes the reaction
– Occurs at the plasma membrane in prokaryotes
http://schoolworkhelper.net/cellular-respiration-glycolysis-pyruvate-kerbs-etc/
27
• For each 3-carbon pyruvate molecule: – 1 CO2
• Decarboxylation by pyruvate dehydrogenase
– 1 NADH
– 1 Acetyl-CoA which consists of 2 carbons from pyruvate attached to coenzyme A
• Acetyl-CoA proceeds to the Krebs cycle

Pyruvate from glycolysis is
oxidized Krebs Cycle into an
acetyl group that feeds into the
Krebs cycle. The 2-C acetyl group
combines with 4-C oxaloacetate to
produce the 6-C compound citrate
(thus this is also called the citric
acid cycle). Oxidation reactions
are combined with two
decarboxylations to produce
NADH, CO2, and a new 4-carbon
molecule. Two additional
oxidations generate another
NADH and an FADH2 and
regenerate the original 4-C
oxaloacetate.

Per glucose
molecule, the
Krebs cycle
produces…
• 4 CO2
• 6 NADHs
• 2 FADH2
• 2 ATP
33
At this point
• Glucose has been oxidized to:
– 6 CO2 (byproduct of aerobic respiration)
– 4 ATP
– 10 NADH
– 2 FADH2
• Electron transfer has released 53 kcal/mol
of energy by gradual energy extraction
• Energy will be put to use to manufacture
ATP in ETC
These two types of electron carriers proceed to the electron transport chain
34
Electron Transport Chain (ETC)
• ETC is a series of membrane-bound electron carriers

• Membrane relatively impermeable to ions
• Most H+ can only reenter matrix via ATP synthase

– 38 ATP per glucose for bacteria
– 36 ATP per glucose for eukaryotes
• Actual energy yield
– 30 ATP per glucose for eukaryotes

Oxidation Without O2
1. Anaerobic respiration
– Use of inorganic molecules (other than O2) as
final electron acceptor
– Many prokaryotes use sulfur, nitrate, carbon
dioxide or even inorganic metals
2. Fermentation
– Use of organic molecules as final electron
acceptor
47
Anaerobic respiration
• Methanogens
– CO2 is reduced to CH4 (methane)
– Found in diverse organisms including cows
• Sulfur bacteria
– Inorganic sulphate (SO4) is reduced to
hydrogen sulfide (H2S)
– Early sulfate reducers set the stage for
evolution of photosynthesis

Fermentation
2. Lactic acid
fermentation
• Electrons are transferred
from NADH to pyruvate to
produce lactic acid
• Occurs in animal cells
(especially muscles, such
as during sprinting)

Anabolic and Catabolism Pathways
• Metabolic pathways are
linked to reversible
pathways of cellular
respiration
– Large molecules broken
down and rearranged –
catabolic pathways
– Most larger molecules
needed by the cell are
produced – anabolic
pathways
53
Example of Catabolism of Protein
• Amino acids undergo deamination to remove the
amino group (-NH2)
• Remainder of the amino acid is converted to a
molecule that enters glycolysis or the Krebs cycle
– Alanine is converted to pyruvate
– Aspartate is converted to oxaloacetate

Catabolism of Fat
• Fats are broken down to fatty
acids and glycerol
– Fatty acids are converted to 2-C
acetyl groups by b-oxidation
– Oxygen-dependent process
• The respiration of a 6-carbon
fatty acid yields 20% more
energy than 6-carbon glucose
• Runs in reverse to produce
fats

Evolution of Metabolism
• Hypothetical timeline
1. Ability to store chemical energy in ATP
2. Evolution of glycolysis • Pathway found in all living organisms
3. Anaerobic photosynthesis (using H2S)
4. Use of H2O in photosynthesis (not H2S) • Begins permanent change in Earth’s
atmosphere about 2.4 Bya
5. Evolution of nitrogen fixation
6. Aerobic respiration evolved most recently
