• Metabolism is the sum of an organism’s chemical reactions

• Metabolism is an emergent property of life that arises from interactions between molecules within the cellhttp://www.encognitive.com/images/metabolic-pathways.png

A metabolic pathway begins with a specific molecule and ends with a product

• Each step is catalyzed by a specific enzyme

CATABOLIC PATHWAY (CATABOLISM)Release of energy by the breakdown of complex molecules to simpler compoundsEX: digestive enzymes break down food

ANABOLIC PATHWAY (ANABOLISM)consumes energy to build complicated molecules from simpler onesEX: linking amino acids to form proteins

Forms of Energy

• ENERGY = capacity to cause change

• Energy exists in various forms (some of which can perform work)

• Energy can be converted from one form to another

KINETIC ENERGY – energy associated with motion– HEAT (thermal energy) is kinetic

energy associated with random movement of atoms or molecules

POTENTIAL ENERGY = energy that matter possesses because of its location or structure

– CHEMICAL energy is potential energy available for release in a chemical reaction

On the platform, the diver hasmore potential energy.

Diving convertspotential energy to kinetic energy.

Climbing up converts kinetic energy of muscle movement to potential energy.

In the water, the diver hasless potential energy.

THERMODYNAMICS = the study of energy transformations

• CLOSED system (EX: liquid in a thermos) = isolated from its surroundings

• OPEN system energy + matter can be transferred between the system and its surroundings

• Organisms are open systems

The First Law of Thermodynamics

= energy of the universe is constant

– Energy can be transferred and transformed

– Energy cannot be created or destroyed

• The first law is also called the principle of CONSERVATION OF ENERGY

The Second Law of Thermodynamics

During every energy transfer or transformation

•entropy (disorder) of the universe INCREASES

•some energy is unusable, often lost as heat

ORGANISMS are energy TRANSFORMERS!

Spontaneous processes occur without energy input; they can happen quickly or slowly

For a process to occur without energy input, it must increase the entropy of the universe

Free-Energy Change (G) can help tell which reactions will happen

∆G = change in free energy ∆H = change in total energy (enthalpy) or change ∆S = entropy T = temperature

∆G = ∆H - T∆S

•Only processes with a negative ∆G are spontaneous

•Spontaneous processes can be harnessed to perform work

Exergonic and Endergonic Reactions in Metabolism

• EXERGONIC reactions (- ∆G)

• Release energy

• are spontaneous

ENDERGONIC reactions (+ ∆G)

• Absorb energy fromtheir surroundings

• are non-spontaneous

Concept 8.3: ATP powers cellular work by coupling exergonic reactions to endergonic reactions• A cell does three main kinds of work:

– Mechanical

– Transport

– Chemical

• In the cell, the energy from the exergonic reaction of ATP hydrolysis can be used to drive an endergonic reaction

• Overall, the coupled reactions are exergonic

Phosphate groups

Ribose

Adenine

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the cell’s renewable and reusable energy shuttle

ATP provides energy for cellular functions

Energy to charge ATP comes from catabolic reactions

Every chemical reaction between molecules involves bond breaking and bond forming

ACTIVATION ENERGY = amount of energy required to get chemical reaction started

Activation energy is often supplied in the form of heat from the surroundings

ENZYMES LOWER ACTIVATION ENERGY BY– Orienting substrates correctly

– Straining substrate bonds

– Providing a favorable microenvironment

ENZYMES• Most are proteins

• Lower activation energy• Specific• Shape determines function• Reusuable• Unchanged by reaction

• The REACTANT that an enzyme acts on = SUBSTRATE

• Enzyme + substrate = ENZYME-SUBSTRATE COMPLEX

• Region on the enzyme where the substrate binds = ACTIVE SITE

• Substrate held in active site by WEAK interactions (ie. hydrogen and ionic bonds)

TWO MODELS PROPOSED

• LOCK & KEYActive site on enzymefits substrate exactly

• INDUCED FITBinding of substrate causes changein active site so it fits substratemore closely

– General environmental factors, such as temperature, pH, salt concentration, etc.

– Chemicals that specifically influence the enzyme

Enzyme Activity can be affected by:

TEMPERATURE & ENZYME ACTIVITY

Each enzyme has an optimal temperature at which it can function (Usually near body temp)

http://www.animated-gifs.eu/meteo-thermometers/001.htm

Increasing temperature increases the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction up to a point.Above a certain temperature, activity begins to decline because the enzyme begins to denature.

http://www.uic.edu/classes/bios/bios100/lectures/chemistry.htm

pH and ENZYME ACTIVITYEach enzyme has an optimal pH at which it can

function

COFACTORS = non-protein enzyme helpers

• EX: Zinc, iron, copper

COENZYMES = organic enzyme helpers

• Ex: vitamins

REGULATION OF ENZYME PATHWAYS• GENE REGULATION

cell switches on or off the genes that code for specific enzymes

REGULATION OF ENZYME PATHWAYS• FEEDBACK INHIBITION

end product of a pathway interacts with and

“turns off” an enzyme earlier in pathway

• prevents a cell from wasting chemical resources by synthesizing more product than is needed

FEEDBACK INHIBITION

NEGATIVE FEEDBACK

– An accumulation of an end product slows the process that produces that product

REGULATION OF ENZYME ACTIVITY• ALLOSTERIC REGULATION

protein’s function at one site is affected by binding of a regulatory molecule at another site

• Allosteric regulation can inhibit or stimulate an enzyme’s activity

http://bio.winona.edu/berg/ANIMTNS/allostan.gif

Allosteric enzyme inhibition

SOME ALLOSTERIC ENZYMES HAVE MULTIPLE SUBUNITS

• Each enzyme has active and inactive forms

• The binding of an ACTIVATOR stabilizes the active form

• The binding of an INHIBITOR stabilizes the inactive form

Substrate

Binding of one substrate molecule toactive site of one subunit locks allsubunits in active conformation.

Cooperativity another type of allosteric activation

Stabilized active formInactive form

COOPERATIVITY = form of allosteric regulation that can amplify enzyme activity

Binding of one substrate to active site of one subunit locks all subunits in active conformation

COMPETITIVE inhibitor REVERSIBLE; Mimics substrate and competes with substrate for active site on enzyme

ENZYMEANIMATION

Enzyme Inhibitors

Enzyme Inhibitors

NONCOMPETITIVE inhibitors bind to another part of an enzyme, causing the enzyme to change shape and making the active site less effective
