W1-L3: Energy Metabolism Flashcards

1
Q

What is Phosphocreatine? (PcR)

A
  • A high-energy phosphate compound
  • Cells store approximately 4-6x more PCr than ATP
  • Free energy releases when the bond cleaves between PCr’s creatine and phosphate molecule

Q

What are the 3 requirements for an uninterrupted electron transport chain?

A
  1. Tissue availability of the reducing agent NADH or FADH2
  2. Presence of the oxidizing agent oxygen in the tissues
  3. Sufficient concentration of enzymes and mitochondria to ensure that energy transfer reactions proceed at their appropriate rate

Q

What are the 3 Stages of Energy release form Macronutrients?

A

Stage 1: digestion, absorption and assimilation of large food macromolecules into smaller subunits for use in cellular metabolism

Stage 2: degrade amino acid, glucose, fatty acid and glycerol units within the cytosol into acetyl-coenzyme A, with limited ATP and NADH production

Stage 3: within the mitochondrion, acetyl-coenzyme A degrades to CO2 and H2O with considerable ATP production

Q

What is Aerobic or slow Glycolysis?

A
  • Slow process
  • Substantial ATP formation
  • pyruvate become the end product. Will go through other processes to further breakdown in the citric acid cycle and electron transport production of ATP

Q

What is Rapid Glycolysis, where does it take place?

Q

What is Glycogenolysis?

A

glycogen breakdown
- the glycogen reacts with a phosphate and become G6P
- When this occurs, we get a net gain of 3 ATP instead of 2 ATP

Q

What is the starting substrate of Glycolosis?
What is the Net Gain of ATP?
What if the starting Substrate is Glycogen?

A

Glucose

The net gain of ATP in glycolysis is 2 ATP molecules per glucose molecule.

we get a net gain of 3 ATP instead of 2 ATP

Q
A

Glucose to G6P uses 1 ATP (not glycogen)
make 2 ATP
use 2 ATP
make 2 ATP
Net Gain of 2

research more on when each ATP is used

17
Q

What Three factors regulate glycolysis?

Need to know specific enzymes (rate-limiting Enzymes)

A
  1. Concentration of the four key glycolytic enzymes: hexokinase, phosphorylase, phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase
  2. Levels of the substrate fructose 1-6-diphosphate
  3. Oxygen, which in abundance inhibits glycolysis
18
Q

What is Lactate?

A

“steady rate” exists when hydrogen oxidizes at about
the same rate it becomes available

19
Q

Lactate

What is the Cori Cycle?

A

Cori cycle removes lactate released from active muscles and uses it to replenish glycogen reserves depleted from intense physical activity

20
Q

What is Lactate shuttling?

A

Lactate shuttling is a process whereby lactate produced in one muscle fiber will circulate to another, convert to pyruvate then to acetyl CoA and enter the citric acid cycle

21
Q

What happens if energy demand exceeds O2 supply or its rate of use?

A

need to make lactate to replinish NAD+
check that

22
Q

The Citric Acid Cycle (also Krebs Cycle)

A
23
Q

A more in depth look at the citric acid cycle

Q

25
Q

Anaerobic Versus Aerobic Glycolysis

A

Anaerobic Versus Aerobic Glycolysis

  • Two forms of carbohydrate breakdown:
  1. Anaerobic (rapid) glycolysis results in pyruvate-to- lactate formation with the release of about 5% of energy within the original glucose molecule -Rapid, but less ATP
  2. Aerobic (slow) glycolysis results in pyruvate-to- acetyl-CoA-to-citric acid cycle and electron transport of the remaining energy within the original glucose molecule - Slower, but more ATP (Efficient)
26
Q

Net ATP Gain from glycolosis and Krebs

A
27
Q

Energy Release from Fat

A

Fuel reserves from fat come from 2 main sources:
1. 60,000-100,000 kcal form triacylglycerol in fat cells
2. 3000 kcal from intramuscular triacylglycerol
Perspective: Carbohydrates energy reserves generally amount to less than 2000 kcal

28
Q

Fat Catabolism comes from what?

A
  1. Triacylglycerols stored directly within the muscle fiber in close proximity to the mitochondria
  2. Circulating Triacylglycerols in lipoprotein complexes that become hydrolyzed on the surface of a tissue’s capillary endothelium
  3. Circulating free fatty acids mobilized from Triacylglycerols in adipose tissue
29
Q
A
30
Q

What is Beta oxidation?
What does it produce?

A

removal of 2- carbon units by oxidation at the fatty acyl-CoA molecule

Each round of B-oxidation produces one mole of NADH, one mole of FADH2 and one mole of acetyl-CoA

31
Q

What is the Total energy transfer from fat catabolism?

A
  • For each 18-carbon fatty acid molecule, 147 ATP are formed
    during B-oxidation and citric acid cycle metabolism X3 = 441 ATP
  • 19 ATP are formed during glycerol breakdown
