2. The General Features of metabolism • Occurs in linear, branched or circular pathways; • Highly interconnected (“Every road leads to Rome”). • Highly regulated to achieve the best economy (“Balanced supply and demand”). • The number of reactions is large (over 1000) and the number of types of reactions is relatively small.(见课本p5~15) • Well conserved during evolution: reflecting the unity of the life phenomena (“what happens in bacteria happens in human being”)

3. Things that will be covered 1). General principles for bioenergetics 2). Oxidative degradation of fuels (glycolysis, B oxidation urea cycle, a-ketoacid oxidation citric acid cycle), generating NADH, FADH2, ATP, and CO2 3). Oxidation of NADH and FADH2 by o2 and generation of ATP and H2o (respiratory chains, ATP synthase) 4). Photosynthsis(photophosphorylation and carbon fixation) 5). Regulation of metabolism
