Answer: in chloroplasts
A typical intracellular concentration of ATP is hard to pin down however reports have shown there to be 1–10 μmol per gram of tissue in a variety of eukaryotes. The dephosphorylation of ATP and rephosphorylation of ADP and AMP occur repeatedly in the course of aerobic metabolism. ATP can be produced by a number of distinct cellular processes; the three main pathways in eukaryotes are (1) glycolysis (2) the citric acid cycle/oxidative phosphorylation and (3) beta-oxidation. The overall process of oxidizing glucose to carbon dioxide the combination of pathways …
A typical intracellular concentration of ATP is hard to pin down however reports have shown there to be 1–10 μmol per gram of tissue in a variety of eukaryotes. The dephosphorylation of ATP and rephosphorylation of ADP and AMP occur repeatedly in the course of aerobic metabolism. ATP can be produced by a number of distinct cellular processes; the three main pathways in eukaryotes are (1) glycolysis (2) the citric acid cycle/oxidative phosphorylation and (3) beta-oxidation. The overall process of oxidizing glucose to carbon dioxide the combination of pathways 1 and 2 known as cellular respiration produces about 30 equivalents of ATP from each molecule of glucose. ATP production by a non-photosynthetic aerobic eukaryote occurs mainly in the mitochondria which comprise nearly 25% of the volume of a typical cell. In glycolysis glucose and glycerol are metabolized to pyruvate. Glycolysis generates two equivalents of ATP through substrate phosphorylation catalyzed by two enzymes PGK and pyruvate kinase. Two equivalents of NADH are also produced which can be oxidized via the electron transport chain and result in the generation of additional ATP by ATP synthase. The pyruvate generated as an end-product of glycolysis is a substrate for the Krebs Cycle. Glycolysis is viewed as consisting of two phases with five steps each. In phase 1 “the preparatory phase” glucose is converted to 2 d-glyceraldehyde -3-phosphate (g3p). One ATP is invested in Step 1 and another ATP is invested in Step 3. Steps 1 and 3 of glycolysis are referred to as “Priming Steps”. In Phase 2 two equivalents of g3p are converted to two pyruvates. In Step 7 two ATP are produced. Also in Step 10 two further equivalents of ATP are produced. In Steps 7 and 10 ATP is generated from ADP. A net of two ATPs is formed in the glycolysis cycle. The glycolysis pathway is later associated with the …
Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that converts glucose C 6 H 12 O 6 into pyruvate CH 3 COCOO − and a hydrogen ion H +.The free energy released in this process is used to form the high-energy molecules ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADH (reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide). Glycolysis is a sequence of ten enzyme-catalyzed reactions.Most monosaccharides such as fructose …
