The body's involuntary functions of vital energy reactions (anabolism and catabolism)
- Daily reactions we take for granted but necessary to function properly
Fundamentals:
Regulation of MetabolismGeneral Types of Pathways
- Linear: continuous series of reactions in which the product of one reaction is the reactant in the next
- Circular: series of reactions where the final product is an initial reactant
- Spiral: series of repeated reactions used to break down or build up a molecule
Biomolecule Metabolism/Intermediary/Central Metabolism:
Complex Carbohydrate Metabolism- Glycogen Metabolism
- Glucose Metabolism
- Pyruvate Metabolism
- Glycerol Metabolism
- Fructose Metabolism
- Galactose Metabolism
- Lactose Metabolism
- Sucrose Metabolism
- Pentose Phosphate Pathway
- Cellular Respiration
- (Aerobic Respiration)
- Glycolysis
- Pyruvate Decarboxylation - can be considered last step of glycolysis before TCA
- TCA Cycle
- Electron Transport Chain
Nucelotide Metabolism
Complex Lipid Metabolism
Lipid Metabolism
Energy Metabolism
Cofactor Vitamin Metabolism
Other Amino Acid Metabolism
Other Substances Metabolism
Concepts:
Terminology:
- Orthophosphate
- Anabolism: build up of chemicals to synthesize new products
- Catabolism: breakdown of chemicals to degrade into new products
- Intermediary/Central Metabolism: discrete pathways of one function
