1.1 Flashcards
principle of catabolism
reduced molecules -> oxidised molecule + energy
amphibolic reaction
reversible, catabolic and anabolic reactions
high energy p bond: used for, how is it made
metabolic energy stored via formation of high energy bond
phosphoanhydride bond; made by splitting H2O btw 2 phosphate
why high energy?
large free energy charge (deltaG) of hydrolysis: NOT due to high bond energy, but due to free energy of hydrolysos
energy of: ATP + H2O -> ADP or AMP
to ADP: delta G= 30.6kJ
to AMP: delta G= 31kJ
function of AMP vs ATP
ATP: E- source used in energyrequiring, non-spontanious reaction
AMP: E-sensor and regulator of metabolism: stim metabolic pathways to make ATP if low conc
synthesis of creatinine: where
1st in kidney
2nd in liver
3rd non-reversible in muscle
creatine is used where
nerve and muscle cells: storage of P bonds
creatine reaction
phosphocreatine + ADP -> creatine + ATP
creatine kinase
thioester bond
-HSCoA
btw -COOH and thiol group
thiol group can react with
acetic acid -> AcCoA
FA -> Fatty acyl-CoA
what is essential to for the CoA role
the spontanity (exergonic) of thioester cleavage is essential as an acyl group carrier
phosphocreatine energy prod
-43.1kJ/mol
thioester energy prod
-31.48kJ/mol
