Some cellular proteins are degraded if they have a KFERQ motif through a chaperone-mediated autophagy pathway…... This leads us to the main mechanism of cellular-protein turnover........... 3.

  • Amphibolic Nature of Krebs Cycle
    Amphibolic nature of Krebs Cycle How what we are is what we eat • In aerobic organisms, the citric acid cycle is an amphibolic pathway, one that serves in both catabolic and anabolic processes. • Since the citric acid does both synthesis (anabolic) and breakdown (catabolic) activities, it is called an amphibolic pathway • The citric acid cycle is amphibolic (i.e it is both anabolic and catabolic in its function). • It is said to be an AMPHIBOLIC pathway, because it functions in both degradative or catabolic and biosynthetic or anabolic reactions (amphi = both) A central metabolic pathway or amphibolic pathway is a set of reactions which permit the interconversion of several metabolites, and represents the end of the catabolism and the beginning of anabolism • The KREBS CYCLE or citric acid cycle is a series of reactions that degrades acetyl CoA to yield carbon dioxide, and energy, which is used to produce NADH, H+ and FADH. • The KREBS CYCLE connects the catabolic pathways that begin with the digestion and degradation of foods in stages 1 and 2 with the oxidation of substrates in stage 3 that generates most of the energy for ATP synthesis. • The citric acid cycle is the final common pathway in the oxidation of fuel molecules. In stage 3 of metabolism, citric acid is a final common catabolic intermediate in the form of acetylCoA. • This is why the citric acid cycle is called a central metabolic pathway. Anaplerosis and Cataplerosis Anaplerosis is a series of enzymatic reactions in which metabolic intermediates enter the citric acid cycle from the cytosol. Cataplerosis is the opposite, a process where intermediates leave the citric acid cycle and enter the cytosol.

    Al-Sham Private University Faculty Of Pharmacy The Citric Acid Cycle The Catabolism of Acetyl-CoA Lecturer Prof. Abboud Al-Saleh 1 Prof.Abboud AL-Saleh 10/1/2018 BIOMEDICAL IMPORTANCE • The citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle, tricarboxylic acid cycle) is a series of reactions in mitochondria that oxidize acetyl residues (as acetyl-CoA) and reduce coenzymes that upon reoxidation are linked to the formation of ATP. • TCA is the final common pathway for the aerobic oxidation of carbohydrate, lipid, and protein because glucose, fatty acids, and most amino acids are metabolized to acetyl-CoA or intermediates of the cycle. 2 Prof.Abboud AL-Saleh 10/1/2018 • TCA also has a central role in gluconeogenesis, lipogenesis, and interconversion of amino acids. Many of these processes occur in most tissues, but the liver is the only tissue in which all occur to a significant extent. • The repercussions are therefore profound when, for example, large numbers of hepatic cells are damaged as in acute hepatitis or as in cirrhosis. • Very few, if any, genetic abnormalities of TCA enzymes have been reported; such abnormalities would be incompatible with life or normal development 3 Prof.Abboud AL-Saleh 10/1/2018 Summary • The cycle starts with reaction between the acetyl moiety of acetyl-CoA and the four-carbon dicarboxylic acid oxaloacetate, forming a six-carbon tricarboxylic acid, citrate. • In the subsequent reactions, two molecules of CO2 are released and oxaloacetate is regenerated (Figure). • Only a small quantity of oxaloacetate is needed for the oxidation of a large quantity of acetyl-CoA. • oxaloacetate may be considered to play a catalytic role.

  • Gluconeogenesis 1
    GLUCONEOGENESIS It is the process by which glucose molecules are produced from non- carbohydrate precursors, which include lactate, glucogenic amino acids, glycerol part of fat and propionyl CoA derived from odd chain fatty acids. Gluconeogenesis occurs mainly in the liver, and to a lesser extent in the kidney. The pathway is partly mitochondrial and partly cytoplasmic. 4 3 2 ! 1 Gluconeogenesis involves several enzymes of glycolysis, but it is not a reversal of glycolysis. The irreversible steps in glycolysis are circumvented by four enzymes which are designated as the key enzymes of gluconeogenesis, these enzymes are: 1. Pyruvate Carboxylase 1 http://cden.tu.edu.iq Tikrit University College of Dentistry Pyruvate in the cytoplasm enters the mitochondria. Then, carboxylation of pyruvate to oxaloacetate is catalysed by a mitochondrial enzyme, Pyruvate carboxylase. It needs the co-enzymes biotin and ATP. 2. Phosphoenol Pyruvate Carboxy Kinase (PEPCK) In the cytoplasm, PEPCK enzyme converts oxaloacetate to phosphoenol pyruvate by removing a molecule of CO2. GTP donates the phosphate. The net effect of these two reactions is the conversion of pyruvate to phosphoenol pyruvate. This circumvents the irreversible step 9 of glycolysis. Partial Reversal of Glycolysis The phosphoenol pyruvate undergoes further reactions catalyzed by the glycolytic enzymes to form fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (see glycolysis steps 8,7,6,5 and 4; all these reactions are freely reversible). 3. Fructose-1, 6-bisphosphatase Fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate is then converted by fructose 1,6- bisphosphatase to form fructose -6-phosphate. This will bypass the step of PFK reaction (see step 3 of glycolysis). Then fructose-6-phosphate is isomerized to glucose-6-phosphate by the freely reversible reaction catalyzed by hexose phosphate isomerase (step2 in glycolysis).

The left and right half are the same, having mirror image acetyl groups (-CH2COOH). Radio-label Experiment. The Krebs Cycle was tested by 14C radio- labeling experiments. In 1941, 14C-Acetyl-CoA was used with normal oxaloacetate, labeling only the right side of drawing. But none of the label was released as CO2. Always the left carboxyl group is instead released as CO2, i.e., that from oxaloacetate. This was interpreted as proof that citrate is not in the 14 cycle at all the labels would have been scrambled, and half of the CO2 would have been C. Prochiral Citrate. In a two-minute thought experiment, Alexander Ogston in 1948 (Nature, 162: 963) argued that citrate has the potential to be treated as chiral. In chemistry, prochiral molecules can be converted from achiral to chiral in a single step. The trick is an asymmetric enzyme surface (i.e. aconitase) can act on citrate as through it were chiral. As a consequence the left and right acetyl groups are not treated equivalently. “On the contrary, it is possible that an asymmetric enzyme which attacks a symmetrical compound can distinguish between its identical groups.” Metabolism Lecture 9 — CITRIC ACID CYCLE/FATTY ACID CATABOLISM — Restricted for students enrolled in MCB102, UC Berkeley, Spring 2008 ONLY [STEP 4] α-Keto Glutarate Dehydrogenase.
