In this article we will discuss about the photosynthetic cycle of reduction of Co2 into carbohydrates. The transformation of light energy into chemical energy results in the production of ATP and NADPH (see fig. 3-12). Our present knowledge of the metabolism of carbohydrates will enable us to study what is sometimes called the dark phase […]
It was observed that pyruvic acid and lactic acid formed in the muscle during glycolysis can be reconverted into glucose (or glycogen) when energy is available (in aerobiosis) and one could wonder whether this neoglucogenesis (or gluconeogenesis, or neoglycogenesis) follows — in the reverse direction — the glycolytic path. In fact, among the reactions leading […]
In this article we will discuss about the process of formation of ATP by photophosphorylation. Photosynthesis: Light Phase and Dark Phase: Heterotrophic organisms collect from the external medium, comparatively simple organic molecules which can serve as carbon-containing skeletons for their syntheses or as energy source (ATP) when they are oxidized during mitochondrial reactions of respiration […]
