  • Fatty acids are stored as triacylglycerols in which 3 fatty acids are esterified to one molecule of glycerol.

  • In mammals, the major site for triacylglycerol storage is adipose tissue.

    • Each adipocyte (adipose/fat cell) contains a large lipid droplet in which the triacylglycerols are housed.

  • Formation of Triacylglycerols:

    • Three fatty acid chains are bound to glycerol by dehydration synthesis, forming a triglyceride or neutral fat and 3 water molecules.

  • They are hydrophobic & reduced.

  • Anhydrous fat stores >6 times the energy of hydrated glycogen.

  • Fats Provide Efficient Fuel Storage

    • Fatty acids carry more energy per carbon because they are more reduced

    • Fatty acids carry less water per gram because they are nonpolar

  • Glucose & glycogen are for short-term energy needs & quick delivery

  • Fats are for long-term (months) energy needs, good storage, & slow delivery

    • Solid: longer chains saturated (only C-C); ex: animal fat, butter

    • Liquid: unsaturated (C=C); ex: vegetable oils.

Digestion Overview

  • Digestion prepares large biomolecules for metabolism.

  • Proteases digest proteins into amino acids & peptides.

  • Dietary carbohydrates are digested by α-amylase.

  • Lipid digestion is complicated by hydrophobicity.

Purpose of Digestion

  • Degrade components of a meal (proteins, lipids, & carbohydrates) into small molecules for absorption & transport.

  • Accomplished by diverse hydrolytic enzymes.

Mechanical vs. Chemical Digestion

  • Mechanical digestion: physical process of breaking food into smaller pieces without chemical change.

  • Chemical digestion: biochemical process of changing macromolecules into smaller molecules for absorption & transport.

Digestive Enzymes

  • Most digestive enzymes are secreted as inactive precursors (zymogens or proenzymes).

    • Trypsinogen from the pancreas is activated by enteropeptidase in the small intestine.

    • Trypsin, in turn, activates other pancreatic proenzymes.

Gastric & Pancreatic Zymogens

  • Pepsinogen -> Pepsin (Stomach)

  • Chymotrypsinogen -> Chymotrypsin (Pancreas)

  • Trypsinogen -> Trypsin (Pancreas)

  • Procarboxypeptidase -> Carboxypeptidase (Pancreas)

  • Proelastase -> Elastase (Pancreas)

Digestion Process

  • Digestion is a form of catabolism.

  • It occurs when food moves through the digestive system.

  • Digestion begins in the mouth w/ mechanical degradation.

    • Chewing converts food into a slurry for hydrolytic enzymes.

  • Mechanical digestion includes chewing and swallowing.

  • Chemical digestion of carbohydrates, fats.

  • Mechanical digestion includes peristaltic mixing and propulsion.

  • Chemical digestion of proteins, fats.

  • Absorption of lipid-soluble substances such as alcohol and aspirin.

  • Mechanical digestion includes mixing and propulsion, primarily by segmentation.

  • Chemical digestion of carbohydrates, fats, polypeptides, nucleic acids.

  • Absorption of peptides, amino acids, glucose, fructose, fats, water, minerals, and vitamins.

  • Mechanical digestion includes segmental mixing and propulsion.

  • No chemical digestion (except by bacteria).

  • Absorption of ions, water, minerals, vitamins, and organic molecules.

Protein Digestion in the Intestine

  • Food movement from the stomach to the intestine stimulates secretion of key hormones by cells of the small intestine:

    • Secretin: causes release of sodium bicarbonate, which neutralizes stomach acid.

    • Cholecystokinin (CCK): stimulates release of digestive enzymes from the pancreas & secretion of bile salts from the gallbladder.

  • Proteins are digested into small fragments called oligopeptides.

  • Peptidases on the surface of intestinal cells cleave the oligopeptides into amino acids & di- & tripeptides, which are conveyed into the intestinal cell by transporters.

  • The amino acids are subsequently released into the blood by antiporters.

Carbohydrate Digestion

  • Primary source of carbohydrates is starch.

  • Several enzymes participate in carbohydrate digestion.

    • α-Amylase: initiates digestion by cleaving α-1,4 bonds but not α-1,6 bonds.

    • Other enzymes (α-glucosidase & α-dextrinase): complete digestion.

  • Sucrose & lactose are digested by sucrase & lactase, respectively.

  • Glucose & galactose are transported into the intestine by the sodium-glucose linked transporter, & the transporter GLUT5 allows entry of fructose.

Digestion Enzymes

  • α-Amylase: cleaves α-1,4 bonds but not α-1,6 bonds

  • α-glucosidase & α-dextrinase: complete the digestion

Monosaccharide Uptake

  • Glucose & galactose are transported into the intestine by the sodium-glucose linked transporter (SGLT).

  • The transporter GLUT5 allows entry of fructose.

Emulsification

  • Grinding & mixing in the stomach converts lipids into an emulsion.

  • Process of dispersion of lipids into small droplets by reducing surface tension.

  • Bile salts, secreted by the gallbladder, insert into lipid droplets, rendering them more accessible to digestion by lipases.

Lipase

  • Pancreatic lipases convert triacylglycerols into 2 fatty acids & monoacylglycerol.

Micelle Formation

  • Digestion products are carried as micelles to the intestinal epithelial cells for absorption.

Chylomicron

  • Triacylglycerols are re-formed from fatty acids & monoacylglycerol and packaged into lipoprotein transport particles called chylomicrons in the intestine.

  • The chylomicrons eventually enter the blood so that the triacylglycerols can be absorbed by tissues.

Energy Needs

  • Energy is required to meet 3 fundamental needs: performance of mechanical work in muscle contraction & cellular movement, active transport of molecules & ions, synthesis of macromolecules & other biomolecules from simple precursors.

Metabolism

  • Metabolism consists of many interconnecting rxns. ATP is the universal currency of free energy.

  • Oxidation of carbon fuels is an important source of cellular energy.

  • Metabolic pathways contain many recurring motifs.

  • Metabolic processes are regulated in 3 principle ways.

Energy Generation

  • Stages of the Generation of Energy from Food

    • Large molecules in food are broken down into smaller molecules in the process of digestion.

    • Small molecules are processed into key molecules of metabolism, mainly acetyl CoA.

    • ATP is produced from the complete oxidation of acetyl CoA.

      • Lipids -> Fatty acids and glycerol

      • Polysaccharides -> Glucose and other sugars

      • Proteins -> Amino acids

  • Molecules are degraded/synthesized stepwise in metabolic pathways.

  • ATP is the energy currency of life.

  • ATP can be formed by the oxidation of carbon fuels.

  • A limited # of rxn types that involve particular intermediates are common to all metabolic pathways.

  • Metabolic pathways are highly regulated.

Metabolic Reactions

  • Metabolism: entire network of chemical rxns carried out by living cells.

  • Metabolites: small molecule intermediates in degradation or end product of metabolism.

  • Catabolic reactions: degrade molecules to create smaller molecules (produces energy).

  • Anabolic reactions: synthesize molecules for cell maintenance, growth, & reproduction (required energy).

  • Glucose Metabolism: The eventual fate of glucose is to convert it to CO2 & H2O w/ generation of ATP. The aerobic fate of pyruvate is to produce 3 CO2 molecules.

Metabolic Pathways

  • Many metabolic pathways are linked together, including the Metabolism of Complex Carbohydrates, Complex Lipids, Cofactors and Vitamins, and Other Amino Acids..

Energy Reactions

  • Metabolic pathways are divided into 2 types: Catabolic pathways: combust carbon fuels to synthesize ATP or ion gradients Anabolic pathways: use ATP & reducing power to synthesize large biomolecules Some pathways, called amphibolic pathways function anabolically or catabolically

Metabolic Reactios

  • The Individual rxns must be specific. The pathway in total must be thermodynamically favorable.
    A thermodynamically unfavorable rxn in a pathway can be made to occur by coupling it to a more favorable rxn.

ATP

  • Energy derived from fuels or light is converted into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the cellular energy currency. Consists of three phosphate groups, ribose, and adenine.

Phosphorylation

  • The hydrolysis of ATP is exergonic because the triphosphate unit contains 2 phosphoanhydride bonds that are unstable. The energy released on ATP hydrolysis is used to power a host of cellular functions.

Energy

  • ATP has a high phosphoryl - transfer potential b/c electrostatic Repulsion Resonance stabilization Increase in entropy Stabilization by hydrolysis
    • ATP has a phosphoryl-transfer potential that is intermediate among the biologically important phosphorylated molecules

Biochemical Processes With Phosphate

  • Phosphate & its esters are prominent in biology for several reasons: Phosphate esters are thermodynamically unstable, yet they are kinetically stable Phosphate esters are stable b/c the inherent negative charges resist hydrolysis Because phosphate esters are kinetically stable, they are ideal regulatory molecules
    Cells maintain a very high concentration of ATP Recent research suggests that ATP may function as a biological hydrotrope ATP prevents the formation of protein aggregates & dissolves those that form so another role of ATP is maintaining protein solubility

Cellular Energy

  • ATP is the immediate donor of free energy for biological activities

  • The amount of ATP is Hence ATP must be constantly recycled to provide energy to power:

  • Motion* Active transport* Biosynthesis* Signal amplification

Oxidation

  • Amino acids, monosaccharides & lipids are oxidized in the catabolic pathways Oxidizing agents: accept è & is reduced Reducing agents: lose e & is oxidized Oxidation of one molecule must be coupled w/ the reduction of another molecule

  • Oxidation rxns involve loss of e-. That must be coupled to reactions that gain e: oxidation-reduction (redox) rxns C atoms in fuels are oxidized to yield CO2, & the è are accepted by oxygen to form H2O The more reduced a C atom is, the more free energy is released upon oxidation. Fats are a more efficient food source. Fats than glucose btc fats are more reduced

  • Compounds w/High Phosphoryl - Transfer Potential Can Couple Carbon Oxidation to ATP Synthesis, The essence of catabolism is capturing the energy of carbon oxidation as ATP Oxidation of the C atom form ATP a compound w/ high phosphoryl - transfer potential that can then be used to synthesize Oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to 3-phosphoglyceric acid Ran does not occur to one step

Metabolic Pathways

  • Activated carrier: small molecule carrying a chemical group in a high-energy linkage, serving as a donor of energy or of the chemical group in many different chemical rxns (ex: ATP, NADH, acetyl CoA) 2 characteristics: carriers are kinetically stable in the absence of specific catalysts and the metabolism of activated groups is accomplished w/ a small # of carriers.

  • Activated ATP is an activated carrier of phosphoryl groups. Other activated carriers are the same in biochemistry, often they are derived from vitamins Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) & flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) carry e- derived from the oxidation of fuels Activated Carriers Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+) is to reductive biosynthesis carriers of electrons for fuel Oxidation
    A redox dehydrogenation RXN

  • Activation Carriers of Electrons for the Synthesis of Biomolecules Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+) is an activated carrier of e- for reductive biosyntheses NADPH is exclusive used for reductive biosynthesis & NADH is primarily for ATP generation Reactive site Keto Group of a Two-Carbon Unit Being Reduced to a Methylene Group NADPH/mediated reduction Activated Carrier of Two-Carbon Fragments Coenzyme (ACCoA or group CoA-SH) is an activated carrier of acyl groups including the acetylacyl The transfer of the acyl group is exergonic b/c the thioester is unstable Reactive group

Metabolic Processes

  • Homeostasis, a stable biochemical environment, is maintained by careful regulation of biochemical processes. 3 regulatory controls are especially prominent The amount of enzymes present The catalytic activity of enzymes The accessibility of substrates The Amounts of Enzymes Are Controlled The quantity of enzyme present can be controlled @ the level of gene transcription Catalytic Activity Is Regulated Catalytic activity is regulated allosterically or by reversible covalent modification

  • Hormones coordinate metabolic activity, often by instigating the covalent modification of allosteric enzymes Energy charge regulates metabolism Product of a pathway controls the rate of synthesis by inhibiting an early step The Accessibility of Substrates Is Requested Compartments Opposing rxns such as fatty acid synthesis & degradation may occur in different cellular the flux of substrates b/w compartments is used to regulate metabolism

Glycolysis

  • Oxidative phosphorylation: oxidative energy (e movement) used in mitochondria to generate Phosphorylation: light energy captured in chloroplasts of plants to make ATP Characteristics of Metabolism Metabolic pathways are most inreversible Every metabolic pathway has a committed 1st step All metabolic pathways are regulated Metabolic pathways in eukaryotic cells occur in specific cellular locations.

  • Glycolysis: Energy Conversion Pathway, Glycosis comes from a combination of 2 Greek words Glykys = sweet Lysis = breakdown Central pathway for glucose catabolism.
