Document Summary

Metabolism: a highly integrated network of chemical pathways that enable a cell to extract energy from the environment and use this energy for biosynthetic purposes. Can be broken down into: (fig 1-29 pg. 28: catabolism: reactions that transform fuel into useful energy, anabolism: reactions that use energy to form complex structures from simple ones. Overview of this section: thermodynamics of pathways and properties of atp, characteristics of sugars, the catabolic pathway of glucose leading to the production of atp. Glucose + o2 co2 + h2o + energy (atp) Via glycolysis, krebs cycle, oxidative phosphorylation: the anabolic pathways of glucose, gluconeogenesis, the metabolism of glycogen, thermodynamics and atp. Long term solution: couple it to an exergonic reaction: the overall free energy change for a chemically coupled series of reactions is equal to the sum of the free energy changes of the individual steps. Glucose + pi glucose-6-phosphate go" = +13. 8 kj/mole. Atp + h2o adp + pi go" = -30. 5 kj/mole.
