Cellular Respiration
Glycolisis
Investment Phase
Glucose is converted to glucose 6-phosphate
glucose 6-phosphate converted to Fructose 6-phosphate
Fructose 6-phosphate converted to Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate
Pay-off Phase
G3P converted to 1,3-bisphospho-glycerate
1,3-bisphospho-glycerate converted to 3-Phospho-glycerate
3-Phospho-glycerate converted to 2-phospho-glycerate
2-phospho-glycerate converted to phosphoenol-pyruvate
phosphoenol-pyruvate converted to Pyruvate
2NAD+ converted to 2NADH in the process of making 1,3-bisphospho-glycerate
2 ATP
2 NADPH
Citric Acid cycle
Acetyl CoA --> citrate --> Isocitrate
a-ketoglutarate
Succinyl CoA
Succinate
Fumarate
Malate
Oxaloacetate
6 NADH made for two rounds of the cycle
2 FADH made for two rounds of the cycle
2 ATP made for two rounds of the cycle
Oxidative Phosphorylation
Electron Transport Chain
Protein complex 2
FAD by product
Protein complex 1
compex Q
Protein complex 3
Cyt-c complex
Protein complex 4
H2O by product
NAD+ by product
The process by which the electrons from the electron carries powers the proton pumps, an H+ gradient is formed with a higher concentration of H+ in the inner membrane (outside). This will provide the potential energy needed in chemiosmosis.
Chemiosmosis
ATP Synthase
The power generated from the flow of protons enables ATP Synthase to add an inorganic phosphate to ADP to form ATP
about 26 or 28 ATP produced
Pyruvate Oxidation
pyruvate breaks down and CO2 is released, NADP gets a H+ to make NADPH as the rest of the molecule combines with coenzyme A
Acetyl CoA
2 NADH produced

Gene Regulation
Prokaryotes
Operons
Lac Operon
On
-Repressor binded to allolactose
-cAMP levels are high
-CAP is active and RNA Polymerase
binds to promoter
-Repressor binded to allolactose
-cAMP levels are low
-CAP is not active and RNA Polymerase
cannot bind well to promoter
Off
-Repressor binded to operator
-Repressor "on"
-RNA polymerase can't bind to promoter
Lac A
transacetylase
Lac Y
Permease
Lac Z
Breaks down Lactose
Lac I
Trp Operon
On
-Tryptophan is not present
-Repressor is inactive
Off
-Tryptophan is Present
-Repressor is active

General Transcription Factors
Low(Basal) levels of Expression
Repressor
RNA Pol. II can't bind, resulting in
low expression

DNA Packaging
DNA wraps around Histones
H1, H21, H2B, H3, H4
H2A, H2B, H3, H4 form histone cores
Nucleosomes
Chromatin
30 nm fiber wraps and connects nucleosomes
H1 is needed for fiber

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)
replicates and amplifies DNA
denaturation

TRANSLATION
cytoplasm
rRNA (ribosomal RNA)
70s in Prokaryotes
80s in Eukaryotes
large and small subunit
small subunit binds to 5' cap w/ Met
Met scans to find AUG
large subunit binds to AUG
Met starts in the P site
anticodon bonds to the tRNA
amino acyl tRNA synthetase
actual process of translation, adds
proteins onto the tRNA to form a
protein chain until a stop codon is present
mRNA, tRNA, ribosomes, amino acids,
amino acyl tRNA synthetase, peptidyl
transferase, initiation factors,
elongation factors, release factors

5' cap and poly-A tail
RNA Processing
introns are removed from the gene through spliceosomes
make final mRNA

Elongation
Termination
pre mRNA
MUTATIONS
missense
changing a nucleotide which changes the protein
silent
changes a nucleotide but the protein remains the same
nonsense
adds a premature stop codon
frameshift
adding or deleting nucleotides in multiples other than three
