Document Summary

Metabolic pathways y pathway refers to a number of biochemical reactions that are grouped together that lead to a common end product (e. g. biosynthetic pathways, respiratory pathways, etc. ) y two major types of pathways: Catabolic pathways: breaks molecules down and free energy is released, overall catabolic pathways are exergonic and have a negative g. Anabolic pathways: almost any biosynthetic pathways, that make complex molecules out of simpler ones, are anabolic, overall anabolic pathways are endergonic and have a positive g. Atp/adp cycle y the energy required to drive the synthesis of atp from adp, comes from catabolic pathways y energy released from catabolic pathways is used to drive anabolic pathways. In anabolic reactions, like photosynthesis, amino acid biosynthesis, synthetic reactions, etc. , the energy carrier is. Nadp, whereas nad is used in catabolic pathways y nad is a two electron carrier y h atoms (h. + plus 2 e-) from food transferred to nad. Look at supplemental reading: sections 6. 1 6. 4.
