E N D
Catabolism • Energy-yielding reactions • For non-photosynthetic organisms, two sources of fuel • Diet • Fats, CHO, proteins • Stored compounds • Fats, starch, glycogen
Carbohydrate Digestion Ingested • Starch, glycogen, cellulose, sucrose, lactose Saliva • -amylase • All (14) split to make D-glucose Stomach • pH low
Carbohydrate Digestion Small intestine • Pancreatic -amylase Brush border (small intestine) • Sucrase: Glc + Fru • Lactase: Glc + Gal
Glycogen Breakdown • Occurs in liver and muscles
Importance of Glycolysis Central energy-yielding path Provides precursors for many biosynthetic paths Overlaps with pyruvate glucose pathway Illustrates enzyme mechanisms Illustrates regulatory mechanisms
Hexokinase Reaction ∆Gº= –16.7 kJ/mol
Hexokinase Reaction • Recall the “induced fit”
Phosphohexose Isomerase • Keto-enol isomerization
Phosphofructokinase (PFK-1) ∆Gº= –14.2 kJ/mol
Phosphofructokinase • Complex enzyme • MW 360,000 • Rate-limiting step in glycolysis • Major control point: allosteric regulation • High ATP inhibits • High AMP, ADP stimulates • Other “fuels” alter activity • Fru-2,6-bisP hormonal signal
Aldolase • Hexose 2 Trioses ∆Gº= +23.8 kJ/mol
Triose Phosphate Isomerase (TPI) ∆Gº= +7.5 kJ/mol
Oxidation of Glyceraldehyde-3-P Otto Warburg 1937-38 ∆Gº= +6.3 kJ/mol
Phosphoglycerate Kinase ∆Gº= –18.5 kJ/mol
Phosphoglycerate Mutase A covalent enzyme-phosphate intermediate (P-histidine) is involved, like phosphoglucomutase ∆Gº= +4.4 kJ/mol
Formation of Phosphoenolpyruvate ∆Gº= +7.5 kJ/mol
ATP from PEP: Pyruvate Kinase ∆Gº= –31.4 kJ/mol
Side Products of Glycolysis Studies • Discovery of cofactors • ATP • NAD+ • Methods of protein purification • Philosophical change
Side Products of Glycolysis Studies • Understanding of regulation • Demonstration of unity of biochemistry
