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

Concept 8.1: An organism’s metabolism transforms matter and energy, subject to the laws of thermodynamics
• 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

Organization of the Chemistry of Life into Metabolic Pathways
• A metabolic pathway begins with a specific molecule and ends with a product
• Each step is catalyzed by a specific enzyme

• 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

Forms of Energy
• Energy is the capacity to cause change
• Energy exists in various forms, some of which can perform work

• Kinetic energy is energy associated with motion
• Heat (thermal energy) is kinetic energy associated with random movement of atoms or molecules
• Potential energy is energy that matter possesses because of its location or structure
• Chemical energy is potential energy available for release in a chemical reaction
• Energy can be converted from one form to another

The Laws of Energy Transformation
• Thermodynamics is the study of energy transformations
• A closed 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

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
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

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 (disorder) of the universe

• 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

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

• 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

Concept 8.2: 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

Free-Energy Change,∆∆∆∆G
• A living system’s free energy is energy that can do work when temperature and pressure are uniform, as in a living cell

• The change in free energy (∆G) during a process is related to the change in enthalpy, or change in total energy (∆H), change in entropy (∆S), and temperature in Kelvin (T):
∆G = ∆H – T∆S
• Only processes with a negative ∆G are spontaneous
• Spontaneous processes can be harnessed to perform work

Free Energy, Stability, and Equilibrium
• 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
• Equilibrium is a state of maximum stability
• A process is spontaneous and can perform work only when it is moving toward equilibrium

Exergonic and Endergonic Reactions in Metabolism
• An exergonic reaction proceeds with a net release of free energy and is spontaneous
• An endergonic reaction absorbs free energy from its surroundings and is nonspontaneous

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
• A catabolic pathway in a cell releases free energy in a series of reactions
• Closed and open hydroelectric systems can serve as analogies

Concept 8.3: ATP powers cellular work by coupling exergonic reactions to endergonic reactions
• A cell does three main kinds of work:
– Chemical
– Transport
– Mechanical
• 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

The Structure and Hydrolysis of ATP
• ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the cell’s energy shuttle
• ATP is composed of ribose (a sugar), adenine (a nitrogenous base), and three phosphate groups

• The bonds between the phosphate groups of ATP’s tail 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

How 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

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 chemical potential energy temporarily stored in ATP drives most cellular work

Concept 8.4: 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

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 (E A)
• Activation energy is often supplied in the form of heat from the surroundings

How Enzymes Lower the EA Barrier
• Enzymes catalyze reactions by lowering the EAbarrier
• Enzymes do not affect the change in free energy (∆G); instead, they hasten reactions that would occur eventually

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
• Induced fit of a substrate brings chemical groups of the active site into positions that enhance their ability to catalyze the reaction

Catalysis in the Enzyme’s Active Site
• In an enzymatic reaction, the substrate binds to the active site of the enzyme
• The active site can lower an EA barrier by
– Orienting substrates correctly
– Straining substrate bonds
– Providing a favorable microenvironment
– Covalently bonding to the substrate

Concept 8.5: 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

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

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
