1a Glucose Catabolism: Slides 1-53
- Glycolysis, also known as Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway
- Located in cytosol
- Sequence of 10 enzymatic reactions
- 1 SIX-C molecule of glucose to 2 THREE-C molecule of pyruvate
- Generation of 2 ATP
- Net reaction: glucose + 2NAD+ + 2ADP + 2Pi →
2 pyruvate + 2NADH + 2ATP + 2H2O + 4H+
- Energy CONSUMPTION: 2 ATP used
getting to 2 molecules of
glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate from 1
molecule glucose
- Energy RECOVERY: 2 molecules
glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate
converted to 2 molecules pyruvate
and generation of 4 ATP
- [OTHER SLIDE SHOW] Control of Glycolysis: hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase
- 1. Hexokinase
- [other slide show]
- 2. PGI (Phosphoglucose Isomerase)
- Converts G6P to fructose-6-phosphate (F6P)
- Isomerization of aldose to ketose
- Reaction requires ring opening, isomerization and ring closure
- 3. PFK (Phosphofrucokinase)
- F6P phosphorylated to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate
(Product is “bis” rather than “bi” because 2
phosphates not directly attached to each other)
- F6P + ATP → FBP + ADP + H+
- Phosphorylates similar to hexokinase
- Requires ATP and Mg+2 complex
- PFK central role pathway control -
Allosteric enhancement by AMP ...
Allosteric inhibition by ATP and citrate
- 4. Aldolase
- Catalyzes cleavage [aldol cleavage]
of F1,6P (in half) to 2 trioses
- 1. glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAP)
- 2. dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP)
- 5. TIM (Triose phosphate isomerase)
- Triose phosphate isomerase (TIM) catalyzes the following
- 1. Interconversion of GAP and DHAP
- Interconversion so efficient that conc of 2 metabolites maintained at equilibrium conc
- [DHAP] » [GAP]
- GAP consumed by next step of glycolysis so DHAP converted to GAP to maintain equilibrium
- DHAP thus follows GAP into 2nd step of glycolysis, which allows single
metabolite to enter 2nd step which is high-energy formation
- 2. A ketose to aldose
- Catalytically perfect enzyme
- Rate of bimolecular reaction between E and S diffusion is controlled
- P formed as rapidly as E and S collide
- 6. GAPDH (Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase)
- catalyzes the oxidation and phosphorylation of GAP by
NAD+ and Pi to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (1,3-BPG)
GAP + NAD+ + Pi ←→ 1,3-BPG + NADH + H+
- This is an aldehyde oxidation, an
endergonic reaction (positive ΔG), being
driven by the coupled reaction following this
- Endergonic reaction (requires energy for it to work)
- 7. PGK (Phosphoglycerate kinase)
- catalyzes reaction of 1,3-BPG and ADP
forming ATP and 3-phosphoglycerate (3PG)
- Note: called a kinase because of the reverse reaction
ATP + 3PG → 1,3-BPG and ADP
- Mg+2 required as cofactor for Mg+2-ATP complex
- Binding sites of Mg+2-ATP and 1,3-BPG on 2 different domains
separated by ~ 10 Å; binding swings 2 domains together excluding water
- GAP + Pi + NAD+ + ADP → 3PG + NADH + ATP
- ΔG = -12.1 KJ/mol
- Example of substrate-level phosphorylation
- NADH routed thru electron transport yielding ATP
- 8. PGM (Phosphoglycerate mutase)
- catalyzes conversion of
3-phosphoglycerate to
2-phosphoglycerate
- Multistep process where: [1] E’s phosphoryl group
(on His 8) transferred to 3-PG making 2,3-BPG
[2] 2,3-BPG decomposes leaving phosphoryl group
on E and product 2-PG
- Trace amounts of
2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG)
occasionally break away
- Available to “jump start” or
regenerate phosphoenzyme
- 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate also binds
deoxy Hb decreasing Hb’s O2 affinity
- Consequently RBC’s require much more
than trace amounts to prime inactive enzyme
- 2,3-BPG is reversible
in gluconeogenesis
- 9. Enolase
- catalyzes dehydration reaction of 2PG
to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) + H2O
- Enzyme forms complex with cations,
such as Mg+2 before substrate binds
- Creation of “high energy” phosphate
- Enolase is inhibited
(blocking glycolysis) by F-
- In presence of Pi, F- forms complex with Mg+2 at enzyme’s active site, blocking S binding
- 10. Pyruvate kinase
- catalyzes: [1] Formation of
pyruvate from PEP
[2] Synthesis of ATP from ADP
- [1st step] Hydrolysis: release
of high energy phosphate
- [2nd step] Tautomerization: conversion of
“enol” pyruvate to “keto” pyruvate
- Releases more energy than 1st step
- Requires K+ and Mg+2
- Highly exergonic (releases energy) reaction providing
enough energy for substrate level ATP synthesis
- 3 products of glycolysis
- #1# ... 2 ATP: initial consumption of 2 ATP followed by production of 4 ATP
- #2# ... 2 NAD+ converted to 2 NADH which is shunted into electron
transport for ATP formation and regeneration of NAD+
- #3# ... 2 molecules pyruvate which are still relatively reduced –
enters TCA for complete oxidation to CO2 and synthesis of more ATP
- Under anaerobic conditions, pyruvate metabolized to lesser extent to regenerate NAD+
- Fermentation
- Pyruvate has 3 metabolic fates depending on conditions
- Aerobic conditions – pyruvate completely oxidized to CO2 and H2O
- 2 different anaerobic conditions
- pyruvate converted to a reduced end
product to oxidize the NADH produced
by glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate
dehydrogenase reaction
- in muscle: homolactic fermentation [dead end]
- pyruvate converted to
lactate to regenerate NAD+
- During vigorous activity in muscle
- -Demand for ATP high
-Supply of O2 low
- ATP synthesized
anaerobically faster than
aerobic oxidative
phosphorylation
- Under these conditions
- Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)
catalyzes oxidation of pyruvate &
NADH to lactate and NAD+
- Lactate burn is to keep up from committing suicide
- (pH dropped around hemoglobin → give up oxygen and force molecule into t-conformation (in
r-conformation, would be able to pick up oxygen) → net overall effect is you create an environment in which
hemoglobin does not bind oxygen → not able to transport oxygen to the tissue, which leads to death)
- 2 acids created in anaerobic glycolysis
- If number of protons
held constant, we can
prevent burn from
acid muscle burn
- Reaction freely reversible
so pyruvate & lactate
readily equilibrated
- Lactate represents dead end
for anaerobic metabolism;
lactate can either be: [a]
Converted back to pyruvate or
[b] Most carried (removed) to
liver where used to synthesis
glucose
- Lactate buildup does not cause muscle fatigue or
soreness, but rather glycolytically generated acid H+
- Muscle can continue to work with
high lactate if pH kept constant
- Overall reaction: Glucose + 2ADP + 2Pi →
2 lactate + 2ATP + 2H20 + 2H+
- in yeast: alcoholic fermentation
- pyruvate decarboxylated yielding CO2 and acetaldehyde
which is then reduced by NADH yielding NAD+ and ethanol
- Anaerobic conditions in yeast
- Pyruvate converted to ethanol and CO2
- Enzyme decarboxylates pyruvate forming acetaldehyde and CO2
- Enzyme not found in animals
- Enzyme contains coenzyme thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP)
- Synthesized from thiamine (vitamin B1)
- Binds tightly to enzyme, but not covalently
- Functional group is thiazolium ring
- Thiamine deficiency is beriberi
- Neurological disturbances causing [a] Pain [b] Paralysis and
atrophy of limbs and/or edema [c] Then death
- Coenzyme TPP mostly used
in α-keto acid decarboxylations
- Neither synthesized nor stored
- Alcohol dehydrogenase: Enzyme catalyzes reduction
of acetaldehyde to ethanol
- NADH required and regenerates NAD+ for use
in glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase
- With regeneration of NAD+ for glycolysis
- Process is 2 consecutive reactions
