Types of Phosphorylation exam Flashcards

A type of phosphorylation that directly transfers a phosphate group to ADP using an enzyme, producing ATP during glycolysis and the Krebs cycle.

To generate a large amount of ATP for the cell.

A type of phosphorylation that uses energy from redox reactions in the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis to produce a significant amount of ATP.

During glycolysis and the Krebs cycle.

A series of protein complexes that transfer electrons through a membrane to create a proton gradient that drives ATP synthesis in oxidative phosphorylation.

The diffusion of hydrogen ions across a membrane down their concentration gradient, used to generate ATP in oxidative phosphorylation.

2 ATP molecules.

Chemical reactions that involve the transfer of electrons between two species, crucial for energy production in oxidative phosphorylation.

To catalyze the transfer of a phosphate group from a substrate to ADP, forming ATP.

A gradient formed by the electron transport chain that drives ATP synthesis during chemiosmosis.

The fourth and final stage, which includes the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis.

2 ATP molecules.

It produces the vast majority of ATP during aerobic cellular respiration.

Adenosine triphosphate, the primary energy carrier in cells.

Substrate-level phosphorylation and oxidative phosphorylation.

The first stage of aerobic cellular respiration where glucose is broken down, producing a small amount of ATP via substrate-level phosphorylation.

To create a hydrogen ion concentration gradient that drives ATP synthesis.

The third stage of aerobic cellular respiration that produces a small amount of ATP via substrate-level phosphorylation.

It utilizes the hydrogen ion concentration gradient to phosphorylate ADP, producing ATP.

Adenosine diphosphate, the low-energy form that is converted to ATP during phosphorylation.

Substrate-level phosphorylation directly transfers a phosphate group to ADP using an enzyme, while oxidative phosphorylation uses energy from redox reactions in the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis.

The second stage of aerobic cellular respiration that prepares pyruvate for the Krebs cycle but does not produce ATP via substrate-level phosphorylation.

To provide energy for various cellular processes.

The process of hydrogen ions diffusing across a membrane to drive ATP synthesis in oxidative phosphorylation.

Pyruvate oxidation and the electron transport chain.

Reactions that transfer electrons and release energy used to create a hydrogen ion gradient for ATP production.

To drive the synthesis of ATP during chemiosmosis.

A process that generates ATP through substrate-level phosphorylation and oxidative phosphorylation.
