BIOENERGETICS

– Role of ATP
– Free energy → chemical energy
• Biological oxidation
– Individual components of respiratory chain
• Respiratory chain and
– Oxidative phosphorylation
– Inhibitors of respiration
• The three stages of
biological oxidation

BIOENERGETICS
the Role of ATP
• Energy changes occurring in biochemical reactions are
known as bioenergetics
• First law of thermodynamics
• Total energy of the system or universe remains constant
• Enthalpy: It is a measure of HEAT Contents of Reactants
and Products
• Entropy : It is a measure of randomness or disorder of
reactants and products for example: ICE : has high
degree of order than water Entropy of ice is less than
water
(Energy is either transferred from one part to other or
transformed to other form like chemical energy to heat
energy)
BIOENERGETICS
the Role of ATP
• Second law of thermodynamics
– Physical and chemical processes proceed in
such a way direction that the total entropy of
the universe must increases to the maximum
and then equilibrium is established
• Free energy ( G) (Chemical potential)
• It is that part of the total energy of the

reaction components available to do work
at constant pressure and temperatures
  G =  H- T  S or  G=  E - T  S
 G = Change in fee energy

 H = Change in entropy
 T = Absolute temperature in degree
Kelvin (K)
• K = C + 273
 S = Change in entropy
 H =  E (total Change in Internal
energy of reaction)
• At equilibrium
– Entropy is maximum
– Free energy is minimum
  G -ve i.e. (-) these will be net loss of energy
and reaction will proceed spontaneously.
(excergonic reaction)
 G + ve ie (=) – there will be not gain of
energy. Reaction needs input of energy to
proceed (endergonic reaction)
 G = 0 , the reaction is at equilibrium & no net
change takes place
 G0 = Standard free energy change at PH-7 :
reactants are at 1 mole / litre

• THIOL ESTERS (involving Coenzyme A)
• Acyl carrier protein – ACP
• Amino acid esters (protein synthesis)
• S. adinosylmethionine (active methionine)
• UDPGLc (Uridine diphosphate glucose)
• PRPP – ( 5 – phosphoribosyl -1-
pyrophosphate)
• High energy phosphates are designated by
symbol ~(P)
• High energy phosphate act as the energy
currency (ATP) energy currency of the cell
• The ATP is continuously consumed and
regenerated by following three sources
– Oxidative phosphorylation (enough)
– Glycolysis : 2 ATP mole (anaerobic)
– Substrate level (TCA) 1 ATP mole
– Citric acid cycle
• Other nucleoside triphosphates participate
• In the transfer of high energy phosphate
• UTP uridine triphosphate
• GTP guanidine triphosphate
• CTP cytidine triphosphate
• ATP + UDP Nuclioside ADP + UTP
• ATP + GDP diphosphate ADP + GTP
• ATP + CDP Kinase ADP + CTP
• All these triplhosphates are used for phosphorylation in cell
• Similarly nucleoside monophosphate kinases catalyze the
formation of nucleoside diphosphate
• ATP + Nucleoside – P Specific nucleoside
REDOX POTENTIAL
• Tendency of reactants to donate or accept

electron
• Enzymes involved in oxidation and
reduction are oxidoreductase

PHOSPHAGENS
• Storage forms of high energy phosphates
• Creatinine phosphate muscles and brain
• Maintain ATP conc, during it utilization
• Build up itself when ATP / ADP ratio is high and
act as store hours of
• Act as creatinine phosphate shuttle from
mitochondria to sarcolemma acts as immediate
buffer against effects of M-infarction
• Arginine phosphates (in invertebrate muscle)
• ATP allows coupling of thermodynamically
unfavorable reactions to favourable ones
– Glycolysis first reaction

– ATP → ADP + Pi (( G0 = - 30.5 KJ mol)
