Energy and Glycolysis Flashcards
what is gibb’s free energy
energy capable of doing work
what is enthalpy
the heat content of the reacting system
what is entropy
quantitative expression of the randomness or disorder in the system
deltaG=
deltaH - TdeltaS
if delta G is negative
net loss of free energy
spontaneous
exergonic
it is exergonic if
delta G is negative
if delta G is positive
Net Gain of Free Energy
Not Spontaneous
Endergonic
if it is endergonic
delta G is positive
draw graph of negative delta G
pg 6
draw graph of positive delta G
pg 6
what does H stand for
enthalpy
what does S stand for
entropy
the more positive S, the more
thermodynamically favorable rxn will be
how does positive S make rxn more favorable
Ie a positive ΔS tends to make ΔG more negative or exergonic. This is why an ice cube will melt spontaneously at room temperature (the water molecules are becoming more disordered or gaining entropy) even though ice melting is an endothermic reaction (absorbs heat energy).
what does delta G tell us about the reaction
if it will take place, but can only tell based on initial and final states
standard delta G is energy change when reactants and products are at concenctrations of
1 mol/L
biochemical standard for delta G is energy change at what pH
7
look up delta G in my biochem book
lda;lfkj
do practice problems from my biochem gbook for delta G
fa;slkdf
delta G 0 =
-RT ln Keq
delta G = delta G0 +
RT ln [B]/[A]
negative delta G
favor product
log 1 =
0
what is so important about ATP
high energy phosphate bonds
draw ATP
pg 9
in the process of breaking phosphate bonds in ATP
energy is released
ATP reaction is highly
exergonic
when glucose is in tissues, tissues like the liver will do what with glucose
produce a polymer of glucose: glycogen
where does energy come from to turn glucose to glycogen
ATP
glucose to glucose 6 P is what kind of rxn
endergonic - need ATP
UTP is similar to
ATP - it has two high energy bonds
draw full chain for glucose to glycogen
pg 11
UDP glucose to glycogen is what kind of rxn
endergonic
UTP is used to
combine sugars
CTP is used for
lipid synthesis
GTP is used for
protein synthesis
ATP can be used to repair
UTP, CDP, GTP
it sacrifices itself to repair the other guys
cleavage of high energy bonds release energy b/c products are more
stable
2 ADP =
ATP + AMP
draw out glycolysis
pg 14
breaking of carbon bonds in foods yields
energy
glucose linked to another glucose via what bond
glycosidic bonds
when break glycosidic bonds what is delta G
negative - it is a spontaneous rxn
carbs contain how much energy
4 kcal/g
protein contains how much energy
4 kcal/g
fat contains how much energy
9 kcal/g
EtOH contains how much energy
7 kcal/g
how do we store energy
adipose triacylglycerol → fat
glycogen
protein
how much of body weight is fat
20%
how much of our calories is stored in fat
85%
the polymers in fat are highly
reduced
when you oxidize fat
you get energy
glycogen polymer used to release
glucose
what are the two kinds of glyogen energy used
liver glycogen
muscle glycogen
ribose 5-phosphate is needed to produce
nucleic acids
glucose used to do what
lots of things
extracellular matrix and cell wall
glycogen, starrch, sucrose s(storage)
(look on pg 19)
draw out alpha d glucopyranose
pg 19
draw out D-glucose
pg 19
draw out and Beta D glucospyranose
pg 19
glucose metabolism depends on what two hormones
insulin and glucagon
insulin and glucagon are produced by
pancreas
insulin is a hormone that when secreted body is teling tissue
“we have just eaten, we are going to put this away, produce glycogen, fat, and do protein synthesis”
glucagon does what
reverses with insulin does. mobilizes fuels, maintains blood glucose levels during fasting.
what cells in pancreas produce glucagon
alpha cells
as glucose levels rise what happens to insulin
rises
as glucose levels rise hat happens to glucagon
fall
alpha cells do what
secrete glucagon
beta cells do what
secrete insulin
alpha and beta cells are from
pancreas
draw out pathway of glucose regulation of insulin **
pg 25
what phosphorylates glucose to glucose 6 phosphate
glucokinase
what does it mean that glucokinase has high Km
low affinity for glucose - it’s good b/c you only want it to work when glucose levels are high
draw out pathway of glucose regulation of insulin know this well!!!
pg 25
polymers of carbohydrates
amylose & amylopectin
look at and understand difference b/w different sugar rings
pg 28
is sucrose reducing sugar
no
reducing sugar contains
3 anomeric carbon
fiber traps
water
by trapping water, fiber
softens stool
fiber can also inhibit
absorption of cholesterol
fructose, galactose, glucose are all
monomers from sugars
monomer sugars get in through what protein
SGLT1
glucose is taken against
concentration gradient (secondary transport)
Fructose absorbed by
GLUT5
GLUT5 is in
endothelial cells
all 3 monomer sugars can be transfered by
GLUT2
if there are mutations in gene for SGLT1 what will happen
severe diahhrea and dehydration
GLUT4
insulin-sensitive transporter.
