This document discusses bioenergetics, which is the study of energy transformations and exchanges within and between living things. It focuses on how cells transform energy through processes like cellular respiration and photosynthesis to produce, store, and use ATP. The two main laws of bioenergetics are that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only changed in form, and that energy will transfer in the direction of increased entropy. Major bioenergetic processes discussed include glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, the citric acid cycle, and photosynthesis. ATP is also summarized as the key energy currency molecule in cells, being produced through pathways like oxidative phosphorylation and hydrolysis of other phosphate compounds.

Gene regulation is how a cell controls which genes, out of the many genes in its genome, are "turned on" (expressed). Thanks to gene regulation, each cell type in your body has a different set of active genes – despite the fact that almost all the cells of your body contain the exact same DNA. These different patterns of gene expression cause your various cell types to have different sets of proteins, making each cell type uniquely specialized to do its job.

3. The biology of energy transformations
and energy exchanges within and
between living things and their
environments.
4. Bioenergetics is the branch of biochemistry that
focuses on how cells transform energy, often by
producing, storing or consuming adenosine
triphosphates (ATP). Bioenergetics processes,
such as cellular respirations or photosynthesis,
essential to most aspects of cellular
metabolism, therefore to its itself.
5. The study of energy transfer within the
living things.
There are two laws of bioenergetics.
1.) Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but can
be changed from one form to another.
2.) Energy transfer will always proceed in the
directions of increased entropy, and the release of
“free energy”
8. Eye sight: light to electrical impulses
(action potentials).
Muscles Contractions: chemical energy to
mechanical energy.
Vitamin D formations: light energy to
chemical energy.
Photosynthesis: light energy to chemical
energy in plants.

14. Examples of Major Bioenergetics Processes:-
Glycolysis is the process of breaking down glucose into pyruvate,
producing net eight molecules of ATP (per 1 molecule of
glucose) in the process. Pyruvate is one product of glycolysis,
and can be shuttled into other metabolic pathways
(gluconeogenesis, etc.) as needed by the cell. Additionally,
glycolysis produces equivalents in the form of NADH
(nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide), which will ultimately be
used to donate electrons to the electron transport chain.
Gluconeogenesis is the opposite of glycolysis; when the cell's
energy charge is low (the concentration of ADP is higher than
that of ATP), the cell must synthesize glucose from carbon-
containing biomolecules such as proteins, amino acids, fats,
pyruvate, etc. For example, proteins can be broken down into
amino acids, and these simpler carbon skeletons are used to
build/ synthesize glucose.
15. The citric acid cycle is a process of cellular respiration in which
acetyl coenzyme A, synthesized from pyruvate dehydrogenase, is
first reacted with oxaloacetate to yield citrate. The remaining
eight reactions produce other carbon- containing metabolites.
These metabolites are successively oxidized, and the free energy
of oxidation is conserved in the form of the reduced coenzymes
FADH2 and NADH. These reduced electron carriers can then be
re- oxidized when they transfer electrons to the electron transport
chain.
Photosynthesis, another major bioenergetic process, is the
metabolic pathway used by plants in which solar energy is used
to synthesize glucose from carbon dioxide and water. This
reaction takes place in the chloroplast. After glucose is
synthesized, the plant cell can undergo photophosphorylation to
produce ATP.
16. Bioenergetics Relationship Between Free Energy, Enthalpy &
Entropy:-
Every living cell and organism must perform work to stay alive,
to grow and to reproduce. The ability to harvest energy from
nutrients or photons of light and to channel it into biological
work is the miracle of life.
1st Law of Thermodynamics: The energy of the universe remains
constant.
2nd Law of Thermodynamics: All spontaneous processes
increase the entropy of the universe.
17. The important state functions for the study of biological systems
are:
The Gibbs free energy (G) which is equal to the total amount of
energy capable of doing work during a process at constant
temperature and pressure.
◦ If ∆G is negative, then the process is spontaneous and termed
exergonic.
◦ If ∆G is positive, then the process is nonspontaneous and
termed endergonic.
◦ If ∆G is equal to zero, then the process has reached equilibrium.
18. The Enthalpy (H) which is the heat content of the system.
Enthalpy is the amount of heat energy transferred (heat absorbed
or emitted) in a chemical process under constant pressure.
◦ When ∆H is negative the process produces heat and is termed
exothermic.
◦ When ∆H is positive the process absorbs heat and is termed
endothermic.
The Entropy (S) is a quantitative expression of the degree of
randomness or disorder of the system. Entropy measures the
amount of heat dispersed or transferred during a chemical
process.
◦ When ∆S is positive then the disorder of the system has
increased.
◦ When ∆S is negative then the disorder of the system has
decreased.
19. The conditions of biological systems are constant temperature and
pressure. Under such conditions the relationships between the
change in free energy, enthalpy and entropy can be described by
the expression where T is the temperature of the system in Kelvin.
∆G = ∆H − T∆S

Temperature in K; ∆S = Change in Entropy]

20. Energy Rich Compounds:-
1.) Oxidative phosphorylation: (or OXPHOS in short)
In metabolic pathway, cells use enzymes to oxidize nutrients,
thereby releasing energy which is used to produce adenosine
triphosphate (ATP). In most eukaryotes, this takes place inside
mitochondria. Almost all aerobic organisms carry out oxidative
phosphorylation. This pathway is probably so pervasive because it
is a highly efficient way of releasing energy, compared to
alternative fermentation processes such as anaerobic glycolysis.
The process that accounts for the high ATP yield is known as
oxidative phosphorylation.
FADH2. These products are molecules that are oxidized (i.e., give
up electrons) spontaneously. The body uses these reducing agents
(NADH and FADH2) in an oxidation-reduction reaction.
21.
22. 2.) Glycolysis:
Cells use the glycolysis pathway to extract energy from sugars,
mainly glucose, and store it in molecules of adenosine
triphosphate (ATP) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide
(NADH). The end product of glycolysis is pyruvate, which can
be used in other metabolic pathways to yield additional energy.
During glycolysis ATP molecules are used and formed in the
following reactions (aerobic phase)
23. In the anaerobic phase oxidation of one glucose molecule produces
4 - 2 = 2 ATP.
24. 3.) TCA Cycle:
The citric acid cycle (CAC) – also known as the tricarboxylic acid
(TCA) cycle or the Krebs cycle is a series of chemical reactions
used by all aerobic organisms to release stored energy through the
oxidation of acetyl- CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, and
proteins into carbon dioxide and chemical energy in the form of
adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
If one molecule of the substrate is oxidized through NADH in the
electron transport chain three molecules of ATP will be formed
and through FADH2, two ATP molecules will be generated. As
one molecule of glucose gives rise to two molecules of pyruvate
by glycolysis, intermediates of citric acid cycle also result as two
molecules.

27. ADENOSINE TRIPHOSPHATE (ATP):-
Adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) is a multifunctional nucleotide
used in cells as a coenzyme.
It is often called the "molecular unit of currency" of intracellular
energy transfer. ATP transports chemical energy within cells for
metabolism.
It is produced by photophosphorylation and cellular respiration
and used by enzymes and structural proteins in many cellular
processes, including biosynthetic reactions, motility, and cell
division.
One molecule of ATP contains three phosphate groups and it is
produced by ATP synthase from inorganic phosphate and
adenosine diphosphate (ADP) or adenosine monophosphate
(AMP).
28. The structure of this molecule consists of a purine base (adenine)
attached to the 1' carbon atom of a pentose sugar (ribose). Three
phosphate groups are attached at the 5' carbon atom of the
pentose sugar. It is the addition and removal of these phosphate
groups that inter-convert ATP, ADP and AMP. When ATP is used
in DNA synthesis, the ribose sugar is first converted to
deoxyribose by ribonucleotide reductase.
29. The three main functions of ATP in cellular function are:
1.) Transporting organic substances—such as sodium, calcium,
potassium—through the cell membrane.
2.) Synthesizing chemical compounds, such as protein and
cholesterol.
3.) Supplying energy for mechanical work, such as muscle
contraction.
The standard amount of energy released from hydrolysis of ATP
can be calculated from the changes in energy under non-natural
(standard) conditions, then correcting to biological
concentrations. The energy released by cleaving either a
phosphate (Pi) or pyrophosphate (PPi) unit from ATP at standard
state of 1 M are:
30. ATP + H2O → ADP + Pi ΔG˚ = −30.5 kJ/mol (−7.3 kcal/mol)
ATP + H2O → AMP + PPi ΔG˚ = −45.6 kJ/mol (−10.9 kcal/mol)
These values can be used to calculate the change in energy under
physiological conditions and the cellular ATP/ADP ratio (also
known as the Energy Charge). This reaction is dependent on a
number of factors, including overall ionic strength and the
presence of alkaline earth metal ions such as Mg2+ and Ca2+.
Under typical cellular conditions, ΔG is approximately −57
kJ/mol (−14 kcal/mol).
