THERMODYNAMICS
• 1ST Law of Thermodynamics – Energy can be tranferred or transformed, but it can be neither created or destroyed.
• 2nd Law of Thermodynamics – Every energy transfer or transformation increases the entropy (disorder or randomness) of the universe.

Organisms live at the expense of free energy

• Chemical reactions may be classified based on free-energy changes. They are either
– Exergonic – proceeds with a net release of free energy
– Endergonic – absorbs free energy from its surroundings to proceed

ATP Powers Cellular Work
• A cell does three main kinds of workMechanical - beating of cilia, muscle
contraction, chromosome movementTransport – crossing a membrane
against the concentration gradientChemical – building of polymers

What is ATP? The nitrogenous base adenine with a
chain of three phosphates groups attached to the ribose.

• When the terminal phosphate bond is broken, ATP becomes ADP. This is an exergonic reaction releasing 7.3kcal of energy per mole of ATP

The ATP Cycle

ENZYMES• Catalytic proteins• Substrate-specific • Lock and Key fit• Initiate chemical reactions without being
used in the reaction ( reused)• Named for their substrate usually and
have the suffix (-ase)

The Catalytic Cycle of an Enzyme

• Enzymes use a variety of mechanisms that lower activation energy and speed up a reaction.
• Enzymes allow reactions to take place at lower temperature ( body temperature).
![Page 14: METABOLISM ENERGY AND LIFE. METABOLISM The totality of an organisms chemical processes. CATABOLIC PATHWAYS Degradative Processes ANABOLIC PATHWAYS Building](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062413/5a4d1b217f8b9ab0599955cb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Factors that affect enzyme activity• Temperature
– Up to a point, the velocity of the reaction increases with the increase in temperature
– Most enzymes function optimally around body temperature (between 35o-40oC)
– Above the optimal temperature, the hydrogen bonds of the enzyme disrupt and the enzyme is denatured
• pH– The optimal pH is between 6 and 8

Other Factors Affecting Enzyme Activity
• Cofactors – nonprotein helper– If it is organic, then
it is a coenzyme– Most vitamins are
coenzymes• Enzyme inhibitors
– Competitive site– Noncompetitive site
