Document Summary

In redox reactions, electrons are transferred to more electronegative atoms. Lots of energy is released by the oxidation of hydrogen. Energy from redox reactions: break down organic fuel , electrons stripped, controlled release of energy, atp formed via phosphorylation (substrate or oxidation level) Dehydrogenase enzyme- removes pairs of hydrogen atoms from glucose. Nad+ acts as shuttle/acceptor, oxidizing agent, controlled release of energy. Nadh is stored energy trapped to synthesize atp. 4 metabolic pathways: glycolysis, pyruvate breakdown, citric acid cycle, oxidation of phosphorylation. Atp is formed by substrate phosphorylation (adding a phosphate to adp) Allosteric inhibition or stimulation occurs by binding to phosphofructokinase. Energy payoff phase releases energy and nadh is reduced. Two atp go in, four and a pyruvate are produced. If oxygen is present, pyruvate goes to the mitochondria matrix. Acetyl coa- for each produced is 2 co2, reduces 3 nad+, 1 atp, reduces 1 fad. Products per glucose- 4co2, 2 atp, 6nadh, 2fadh2.
