Metabolism

biochemical rxns involved in synthesizing + breaking down molecules

New cards

Metabolic Pathway

Series of Enzymatic rxns to go from pre-cursor molecule to end product

3
New cards

catabolic pathway

breakdown pathways (often spontaneous)

4
New cards

examples of catabolic pathways

glycolysis, fermentation, krebs

5
New cards

exergonic rxn

energy released

6
New cards

anabolic pathways

rxns involved in molecule synthesis (NOT spontaneous)

protein synthesis, lipid synthesis

8
New cards

endergonic rxns

requires energy

New cards

feedback inhibition

a product of a later step in pathway acts as an inhibitor of earlier enzyme
