oxygen) Alcoholic Fermentation • Occurs in yeasts, some plants • Glycolysis occurs first • Pyruvate is converted into: • 1) Ethyl alcohol (ethanol) • 2) CO2 • Used in making bread, beer, wine Lactic Acid Fermentation • Occurs in the muscle cells of mammals • Glycolysis occurs first • Pyruvate is converted to lactic acid Energy payoff? • Fermentation does NOT generate any new ATP • So…what’s the point??? It regenerates NAD+ so that glycolysis can keep running. Anaerobic Electron Transport • -in bacteria • e- are stripped from an organic compound and sent through an e-tc in the plasma membrane • An inorganic compound serves as the final e- acceptor • Energy yield varies, but is small Alternative Energy Source • Glycogen = 1% of stored energy • Fats = 78% • Proteins = 21% Using Fats • Triglycerides: broken down into glycerol and fatty acids • Glycerol is converted into an intermediate in glycolysis • Fatty acids are converted to acetyl-CoA and enter the Krebs cycle Using Proteins • Proteins: broken down into amino acids • The amine group is removed and excreted in urine (NH2) • The remaining carbon backbone may be converted to carbs or fats and enter the Krebs cycle
