Gibbs free energy
ΔG = ΔH – TΔS
ΔG = ΔGo + RT lnK
(ΔGo = – RT lnKeq)
ΔH – Enthalpy - heat at constant pressure (exothermic, endothermic)
T – temperature in Kelvins
S – Entropy
R – gas constant
K – reaction quotient
Keq – equilibrium constatnt
Go – Standard free energy
Spontaneity of biochemical reactions

At biochemical standard conditions (1M, pH 7, 298 K, 101.3 kPa)
the free-energy change of a biochemical reaction is simply an
alternative expression of the equilibrium constant

Actual free-energy changes depend
on reactant and product
concentrations
Standard equilibrium (K’eq) – initial concentrations of each
component is at 1M
This is not the case of living organism
Different concentrations of metabolites can affect the
reaction direction

• Large negative value of ΔG does not ensure that a
process will proceed at measurable rate
• The rate depends on the detailed mechanism of the
reaction and not on the ΔG
• Nearly all molecular components of an organism can
react with each other and many of these reactions are
thermodynamically favored
• Organism can regulate the reactions by altering their
mechanisms
• Enzyme catalysis

Metabolism
• Sum of all chemical reactions in an
organism
• Complex and highly coordinated
• The core parts are similar in all living
organisms
• Reactions in sequence form
metabolic pathways
• Some pathways are primarily
targeted to produce energy
• catabolism
• Some pathways are primarily
targeted to synthetize new
substances (on the cost of energy)
• anabolism

Catabolism of proteins, fats,
and carbohydrates in the
three stages of cellular
respiration
• Stage 1: oxidation of fatty acids, glucose, and
some amino acids yields acetyl-CoA.
• Stage 2: oxidation of acetyl groups in the citric
acid cycle to form NADH and FADH2
• Stage 3: electrons are funneled into a chain of
electron carriers reducing O2 to H2O. This
electron flow drives the production of ATP.

Complete Oxidation of Reduced
Compounds is Strongly Favorable
• This is how chemotrophs obtain most of their energy
• In biochemistry the oxidation of reduced fuels with O2 is stepwise and controlled
• Thermodynamically favorable is not the same as being kinetically rapid – enzyme catalysis

Electron carriers
• A few types of coenzymes and proteins
serve as universal electron carriers
• Many biochemical oxidation-reduction
reactions involve transfer of two electrons
• In order to keep charges in balance, proton
transfer often accompanies electron
transfer

NAD and NADP as common
redox cofactors
• These are commonly called pyridine nucleotides
• They can dissociate from the enzyme after the reaction
• In a typical biological oxidation reaction, hydride(:H-) from an alcohol is transferred to NAD+ giving NADH
• AH2 + NAD(P)+ A + NAD(P)H + H+

Principal role of ATP
in metabolism
• stores energy obtained in catabolic reactions
• transport the energy to compartments or parts of organism where it is needed
• provides the energy for anabolic biosynthetic processes

Chemical basis of large negative
free-energy of ATP
• Separation of negative charges on phosphate
oxygens upon ATP hydrolysis
• Resonance stabilization of phosphate products
• Ionisation of ADP product
• Better solvation of products

ATP provides energy by group transfer
Simple hydrolysis of ATP is not the
source of energy (only liberation of
heat)
• In most cases it is two-step
process:
1) Favorable ATP hydrolysis and Pi
transfer
2) Resonance stabilization of free Pi
• Some processes involve simple
hydrolysis:
- Binding ATP to a protein and its
hydrolysis – conformation change
of the protein – mechanical motion

Actual DG of ATP hydrolysis
depends on a type of tissue
The cellular concentration of ATP is usually above the equilibrium
constant making it even better source of energy

depends on a type of tissue
DG = -30.5 kJ/mol + [(8.315 kJ/mol.K)(310 K) ln((0.25x10-3)(1.65x10-3))/(2.25x10-3)

Several Phosphorylated Compounds
Have Larger DG’° Than ATP
• Again, electrostatic repulsion within the reactant, molecule is relieved
• The products are stabilized via resonance, or by more favorable solvation
• Possible tautomerization product
