An Introduction
to Metabolism
2. Overview: The Energy of Life
The living cell is a miniature chemical factory where
thousands of reactions occur
The cell extracts energy and applies energy to
perform work
Some organisms even convert energy to light, as in
bioluminescence
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
4. Concept 6.1: An organism’s metabolism
transforms matter and energy
Metabolism is the totality of an organism’s chemical
reactions
Metabolism is an emergent property of life that
arises from interactions between molecules within
the cell
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
5. Metabolic Pathways
A metabolic pathway begins with a specific
molecule and ends with a product
Each step is catalyzed by a specific enzyme

7. Catabolic pathways release energy by breaking
down complex molecules into simpler compounds
Cellular respiration, the breakdown of glucose in the
presence of oxygen, is an example of a pathway of
catabolism
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
8. Anabolic pathways consume energy to build
complex molecules from simpler ones
The synthesis of protein from amino acids is an
example of anabolism
Bioenergetics is the study of how organisms
manage their energy resources
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
9. Forms of Energy
Energy is the capacity to cause change
Energy exists in various forms, some of which can
perform work
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
10. Kinetic energy is energy associated with motion
Thermal energy is kinetic energy associated with
random movement of atoms or molecules
Heat is thermal energy in transfer from one object to
another
Potential energy is energy that matter possesses
because of its location or structure
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
11. Chemical energy is potential energy available for
release in a chemical reaction
Energy can be converted from one form to another

A diver has more potential
energy on the platform.
A diver has less potential
energy in the water.
Diving converts
potential energy to
kinetic energy.
Climbing up converts the kinetic
energy of muscle movement
to potential energy.
13. The Laws of Energy Transformation
Thermodynamics is the study of energy
transformations
An isolated system, such as that approximated by
liquid in a thermos, is isolated from its surroundings
In an open system, energy and matter can be
transferred between the system and its surroundings
Organisms are open systems
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
14. The First Law of Thermodynamics
According to the first law of thermodynamics, the
energy of the universe is constant
Energy can be transferred and transformed, but it
cannot be created or destroyed
The first law is also called the principle of
conservation of energy

18. The Second Law of Thermodynamics
During every energy transfer or transformation,
some energy is unusable and is often lost as heat
According to the second law of thermodynamics
Every energy transfer or transformation increases the
entropy of the universe
Entropy is a measure of disorder, or randomness
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
19. Living cells unavoidably convert organized forms of
energy to heat
Spontaneous processes occur without energy
input; they can happen quickly or slowly
For a process to occur without energy input, it must
increase the entropy of the universe
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
20. Biological Order and Disorder
Cells create ordered structures from less ordered
materials
Organisms also replace ordered forms of matter and
energy with less ordered forms
Energy flows into an ecosystem in the form of light
and exits in the form of heat
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
24. The evolution of more complex organisms does not
violate the second law of thermodynamics
Entropy (disorder) may decrease in an organism, but
the universe’s total entropy increases
Organisms are islands of low entropy in an
increasingly random universe
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
25. Concept 6.2: The free-energy change of a reaction
tells us whether or not the reaction occurs
spontaneously
Biologists want to know which reactions occur
spontaneously and which require input of energy
To do so, they need to determine energy changes
that occur in chemical reactions
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
26. Free-Energy Change (∆G), Stability, and
Equilibrium
A living system’s free energy is energy that can do
work when temperature and pressure are uniform,
as in a living cell
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
27. The change in free energy (∆G) during a chemical
reaction is the difference between the free energy of
the final state and the free energy of the initial state
∆G = Gfinal state – Ginitial state
Only processes with a negative ∆G are spontaneous
Spontaneous processes can be harnessed to
perform work
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
28. Free energy is a measure of a system’s instability,
its tendency to change to a more stable state
During a spontaneous change, free energy
decreases and the stability of a system increases
At equilibrium, forward and reverse reactions occur
at the same rate; it is a state of maximum stability
A process is spontaneous and can perform work
only when it is moving toward equilibrium

chemistry of life’s processes
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
33. Exergonic and Endergonic Reactions in
Metabolism
An exergonic reaction proceeds with a net release
of free energy and is spontaneous; ∆G is negative
The magnitude of ∆G represents the maximum
amount of work the reaction can perform

its surroundings and is nonspontaneous; ∆G is

required to drive the reaction

38. Equilibrium and Metabolism
Reactions in a closed system eventually reach
equilibrium and then do no work
Cells are not in equilibrium; they are open systems
experiencing a constant flow of materials
A defining feature of life is that metabolism is never
at equilibrium

44. Concept 6.3: ATP powers cellular work by coupling
exergonic reactions to endergonic reactions
A cell does three main kinds of work
Chemical
Transport
Mechanical
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
45. To do work, cells manage energy resources by
energy coupling, the use of an exergonic process
to drive an endergonic one
Most energy coupling in cells is mediated by ATP
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
46. The Structure and Hydrolysis of ATP
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is composed of
ribose (a sugar), adenine (a nitrogenous base), and
three phosphate groups
In addition to its role in energy coupling, ATP is also
used to make RNA

50. The bonds between the phosphate groups of ATP
can be broken by hydrolysis
Energy is released from ATP when the terminal
phosphate bond is broken
This release of energy comes from the chemical
change to a state of lower free energy, not from the
phosphate bonds themselves
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
51. How the Hydrolysis of ATP Performs Work
The three types of cellular work (mechanical,
transport, and chemical) are powered by the
hydrolysis of ATP
In the cell, the energy from the exergonic reaction of
ATP hydrolysis can be used to drive an endergonic
reaction
Overall, the coupled reactions are exergonic

56. ATP drives endergonic reactions by phosphorylation,
transferring a phosphate group to some other
molecule, such as a reactant
The recipient molecule is now called a
phosphorylated intermediate
ATP hydrolysis leads to a change in a protein’s
shape and often its ability to bind to another
molecule

58. The Regeneration of ATP
ATP is a renewable resource that is regenerated by
addition of a phosphate group to adenosine
diphosphate (ADP)
• The energy to phosphorylate ADP comes from
catabolic reactions in the cell
• The ATP cycle is a revolving door through which
energy passes during its transfer from catabolic to
anabolic pathways

60. Concept 6.4: Enzymes speed up metabolic reactions
by lowering energy barriers
A catalyst is a chemical agent that speeds up a
reaction without being consumed by the reaction
An enzyme is a catalytic protein
Hydrolysis of sucrose by the enzyme sucrase is an
example of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction

62. The Activation Energy Barrier
Every chemical reaction between molecules involves
bond breaking and bond forming
The initial energy needed to start a chemical reaction
is called the free energy of activation, or activation
energy (EA)
Activation energy is often supplied in the form of
thermal energy that the reactant molecules absorb
from their surroundings

66. Substrate Specificity of Enzymes
The reactant that an enzyme acts on is called the
enzyme’s substrate
The enzyme binds to its substrate, forming an
enzyme-substrate complex
The active site is the region on the enzyme where
the substrate binds
Enzyme specificity results from the complementary fit
between the shape of its active site and the substrate
shape
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
67. Enzymes change shape due to chemical
interactions with the substrate
This induced fit of the enzyme to the substrate
brings chemical groups of the active site into
positions that enhance their ability to catalyze the
reaction

An enzyme’s activity can be affected by
General environmental factors, such as
temperature and pH
Chemicals that specifically influence the enzyme
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
75. Effects of Temperature and pH
Each enzyme has an optimal temperature in which
it can function
Each enzyme has an optimal pH in which it can
function
Optimal conditions favor the most active shape for
the enzyme molecule

Cofactors are nonprotein enzyme helpers
Cofactors may be inorganic (such as a metal in ionic
form) or organic
An organic cofactor is called a coenzyme
Coenzymes include vitamins
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
80. Enzyme Inhibitors
Competitive inhibitors bind to the active site of an
enzyme, competing with the substrate
Noncompetitive inhibitors bind to another part of
an enzyme, causing the enzyme to change shape
and making the active site less effective
Examples of inhibitors include toxins, poisons,
pesticides, and antibiotics

82. The Evolution of Enzymes
Enzymes are proteins encoded by genes
Changes (mutations) in genes lead to changes in
amino acid composition of an enzyme
Altered amino acids in enzymes may alter their
substrate specificity
Under new environmental conditions a novel form of
an enzyme might be favored
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
83. Concept 6.5: Regulation of enzyme activity helps
control metabolism
Chemical chaos would result if a cell’s metabolic
pathways were not tightly regulated
A cell does this by switching on or off the genes that
encode specific enzymes or by regulating the
activity of enzymes
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
84. Allosteric Regulation of Enzymes
Allosteric regulation may either inhibit or stimulate
an enzyme’s activity
Allosteric regulation occurs when a regulatory
molecule binds to a protein at one site and affects
the protein’s function at another site
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
85. Allosteric Activation and Inhibition
Most allosterically regulated enzymes are made from
polypeptide subunits
Each enzyme has active and inactive forms
The binding of an activator stabilizes the active form
of the enzyme
The binding of an inhibitor stabilizes the inactive
form of the enzyme

89. Cooperativity is a form of allosteric regulation that
can amplify enzyme activity
One substrate molecule primes an enzyme to act
on additional substrate molecules more readily
Cooperativity is allosteric because binding by a
substrate to one active site affects catalysis in a
different active site
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
90. Feedback Inhibition
In feedback inhibition, the end product of a
metabolic pathway shuts down the pathway
Feedback inhibition prevents a cell from wasting
chemical resources by synthesizing more product
than is needed

organelles; for example, enzymes for cellular
respiration are located in mitochondria
