  • Your body needs energy to do, well, everything. But where does that energy come from? In this episode, Patrick dives into how exactly mitochondria power the cell, how ATP works, and, alas, the Krebs cycle. Buckle up!

    While we need energy to help us move our bodies and do everyday work, our cells also need energy to move their little bodies, manufacture new proteins, and make chemical reactions happen.
    Our bodies have a few ways of turning reactants into products-namely extracting energy-rich molecules from the food we eat and turning it into energy.
    Enter: a molecule called adenosine triphosphate, or ATP. While, like you might have guessed, adenosine triphosphate has three phosphates, it’s actually the bonds between them that we’re more interested in.
    And that is because the chemical bonds that hold those phosphates together hold a lot of energy. When one of those phosphates is broken off, that ATP becomes ADP, or adenosine diphosphate plus one loner phosphate.
    That transformation of ATP to ADP results in usable energy that our cells can use to power our biological processes.
    So that begs the question - where does ATP come from and how exactly do we turn our food into usable energy? Find out more in this Human.

    I'm a biomedical researcher just working with a mitochondrial protein called IDH and I think that the complexity of metabolism is amazing! IDH is normally involved in the Krebs cycle but its product can also influence many other metabolic pathways. Specific mutations in IDH are also frequently found in different cancer types. The reason is that mutated IDH can lead to the production of a new, harmful molecule which messes up a lot of proteins and represses genes which would normally protect against cancer (I would love to make a video about that mechanism one day). After so many years of research, mitochondria still show fascinating new sites!

    Watching these is like getting my biology and chemistry degree all over again. Except way back in the 70's we really didn't know as much. Yes, we knew about the Krebs Cycle and metabolism but it's hard to believe that just 40 years ago we didn't even know about something as basic as a "Golgi Body". We were told it's a body that is found stringed along the endoplasmic reticulum and first seen by Golgi, hence the name. That was ALL WE KNEW! Now there are entire books written about the protean synthesis metabolism that takes place in Golgi Bodies. And I love that I never have to stop learning.

    When I was in college, I asked one of my biology professors what ATP tasted like, and what would happen if you ate some. He was flabbergasted by the questions, going from "Well of course, you'd need a lot of it before you could even taste it" to "I don't actually know" to "Huh. Because items ingested do go through a chemical change in the gut due to stomach acids and such" to "I really don't know. I'm gonna hafta get back to you on that one."
    While I never did get any answers to those questions from him, I did learn that I could still surprise an educator.

And why ketosis have such a bad rep - coz if you have high ketones and high glucose at the same time - you are fucked.

      I feel a lot better during Ketosis than I do otherwise. There is basically no reason to eat carbs at all, the body will produce enough glucouse from other sources and keep most of the body running on ketones instead of glucouse. If you don't eat carbs, you keep your glucouse levels low, so that problem with high glucouse and ketones won't occur.

    I'd still like to see something about how ATP is actually used. Every video and article I've found about these processes seem to consistently stop at "it releases energy." Sure, but what form of energy? How is that energy picked up and used by other molecules/processes? That kind of thing.

      Depends on the action. Broadly speaking you can transfer the phosphate group to some protein and that placement makes the protein change into its active conformation. A bit like pressing a spring but more sophisticated. ATP can be used (by kinases) to phosphorylate enzymes, changing their structure and turning them on/off.
      Examples: it can flip a Na+/K+ channel to restore the ion gradient in nerve cells (active transport), it allows DNA gyrase to prevent supercoiled DNA as it is being read, ATP is used to lock and load the myosine head within muscle units. This times a lot contracts the muscle.

      The energy is within the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate on the ATP molecule.

      I'd say they affect the potential energy of the protein. The binding of ATP / the phosphorylation leads to a conformational change, which is a form of strain. When triggered with the fitting stimulus, stuff happens. Protein dynamics and enzyme catalysis is where you really see how proteins change shape to facilitate interactions/ chemical reactions.
