Chapter 6, Energy and Metabolism
“gonic” Reactions
• Reactions that require energy input are called endergonic
•
if they need heat, they are endothermic
• If a reaction releases energy it is exergonic
•
if the energy is released as heat, it’s exothermic.
ATP
• Adenosine triphosphate
• It is a nucleotide
• 3 parts
– Nitrogen base (adenine)
– Ribose (5C sugar)
– 3 phosphate groups
• Energy of ATP is in these
bonds
• Hydrolysis (adding water)
breaks this bond making ADP
+ Pi
– This is called phosphorylation

Energy Released by the Hydrolysis of ATP is Coupled
to Other Reactions

NAD+ / NADH &
Oxidation / Reduction Reactions
• Reduction is the addition of electrons.
–
–
–
–
Results in increased energy content
Very common in metabolism
e.g., NAD+
NADH
e.g., FAD
FADH2
• Oxidation is the loss of electrons.
– e.g., NADH
NAD+
– e.g., FADH2
FAD
– Oxidation and reduction are often coupled
as redox reactions.

Enzymes Lower EA
Activation energy (Ea) is the energy required to
break the bonds to begin the reaction

Catalase
• Example of an enzyme (all enzymes end in
ASE)
• Is found in all living things
• Used to break down toxins in the body
• For example, Catalase breaks down hydrogen
peroxide in the body (it is a byproduct of
metabolism)
3.4 Notes!
• Having too little of an enzyme or having too
much of an enzyme can have major
consequences
– Sucrase (lack of it causes diarrhea, cramps &
possibly slower growth in kids)
– Too much of an enzyme is wasteful for the cell
• So in order to maintain homeostasis, we need
to regulate enzymes!
Inhibitors
• Chemicals
• Some naturally occur in cells (can regulate
metabolism)
• Others are made in laboratories (used to treat
diseases)
• Inhibitors bind to enzymes, which has an
effect on the function of an enzyme.
Competitive Inhibition
• Inhibitor binds to the
active site of an
enzyme
• Induced fit occurs and
enzyme is unable to
bind to substrate.
• Reversible
– When inhibitor is in
low amounts, it will
leave the active site
and then the
substrate can bind.
Allosteric inhibition
• Inhibitor binds to an alternate site on the
enzyme (not the active site), called the allosteric
site.
• Still changes shape of enzyme, so substrate
cannot bind to active site
• Also called noncompetitive inhibition
What can affect an enzyme?
• pH
• Temperature
• All enzymes have optimal conditions for
optimal performance
• Remember enzymes are proteins, so if the
tertiary level is changed, the enzyme loses its
function
