第23行： − 三磷酸腺苷的结构[[能量代谢中的中枢中间体，三磷酸腺苷]]+ 第29行：
第29行： − + − − 新陈代谢(，来自 metabol，“变化”)是生物体内维持生命的化学反应。新陈代谢的三个主要目的是: 将食物转化为能量以进行细胞处理; 将食物/燃料转化为蛋白质、脂类、核酸和某些碳水化合物的组成部分; 以及消除新陈代谢废物。这些酶催化的反应使生物体能够生长和繁殖，维持它们的结构，并对它们的环境作出反应。(新陈代谢一词也可指生物体内发生的所有化学反应的总和，包括消化和物质在不同细胞之间的运输，在这种情况下，上述细胞内的一系列反应称为中间代谢或中间代谢)。 − + 第39行：
第37行： − 代谢反应可分为分解代谢-分解化合物(例如，葡萄糖被唿吸作用分解为丙酮酸) ; 或合成-合成(合成)化合物(例如蛋白质、碳水化合物、脂类和核酸)。通常，分解代谢释放能量，合成代谢消耗能量。+ 第47行：
第45行： − 新陈代谢的化学反应被组织成新陈代谢途径，其中一种化学物质通过一系列步骤转化成另一种化学物质，每一步都由一种特定的酶促进。酶对于新陈代谢是至关重要的，因为它们通过将生物体与释放能量的自发反应耦合起来，使生物体能够驱动需要能量的理想反应，而这些反应本身不会发生。酶起催化剂的作用——它们使反应进行得更快——它们还可以调节代谢反应的速度，例如对细胞环境的变化或其他细胞发出的信号作出反应。+ 第55行：
第53行： − 特定生物体的新陈代谢系统决定了哪些物质有营养，哪些有毒。例如，一些原核生物利用硫化氢作为营养物质，然而这种气体对动物是有毒的。生物体的基础代谢率是对所有这些化学反应所消耗的能量的度量。+ 第63行：
第61行： − 新陈代谢的一个显著特征是，不同物种之间的基本新陈代谢途径具有相似性。例如，最为人所知的三羧酸循环中的中间产物羧酸存在于所有已知的生物体中，在单细胞细菌大肠桿菌和大象等巨大的多细胞生物体中都可以找到。这些代谢途径的相似性很可能是由于它们在进化史上的早期出现，以及它们的保持是由于它们的功效。肿瘤细胞的代谢也不同于正常细胞的代谢，这些差异可以用来寻找肿瘤治疗的靶点。+ + + + 第75行：
第76行： − [三酰甘油脂]的结构+ 第87行：
第88行： − 构成动物、植物和微生物的大多数结构由四种基本分子组成: 氨基酸、碳水化合物、核酸和脂类(通常称为脂肪)。由于这些分子对生命至关重要，新陈代谢反应要么专注于在构建细胞和组织的过程中制造这些分子，要么通过消化将它们分解并用作能量来源。这些生物化学物质可以结合在一起形成聚合物，如 DNA 和蛋白质，这些都是生命必不可少的大分子。+ 第147行：

第219行： + 第223行：
第225行： − 蛋白质是由氨基酸组成的，氨基酸排列成一条由肽键连接起来的线性链。许多蛋白质是在新陈代谢中催化化学反应的酶。其他蛋白质具有结构或机械功能，例如那些形成细胞骨架的蛋白质，这是一个维持细胞形状的支架系统。蛋白质在细胞信号传导、免疫反应、细胞粘附、主动跨膜转运和细胞周期中也很重要。氨基酸还通过提供碳源进入细胞三羧酸循环，促进细胞的能量代谢，尤其是在葡萄糖等主要能量来源匮乏或细胞受到代谢压力的时候。+ − + − + − 脂类是最多样化的生物化学物质。它们的主要结构用途是作为生物膜的内部和外部的一部分，如细胞膜，或作为能源。脂肪是一大类含有脂肪酸和甘油的化合物，一个甘油分子连接到三个脂肪酸酯称为三酰甘油酯。这种基本结构存在一些变异，包括主骨(如鞘氨醇)和亲水基(如磷脂中的磷酸盐)。类固醇，如甾醇是另一类主要的脂类。+ + 第247行：
第250行： − + − 碳水化合物是醛或酮，上面有许多羟基，它们可以以直链或环的形式存在。碳水化合物是最丰富的生物分子，具有多种功能，如储存和运输能量(淀粉、糖原)和结构成分(植物中的纤维素、动物中的甲壳素)。+ 第255行：
第258行： − + + − + − 这两种核酸，DNA 和 RNA，是核苷酸的聚合物。每个核苷酸都是由一个磷酸组成，磷酸连接到一个核糖或脱氧核糖糖基上，再连接到一个含氮硷基上。核酸对于基因信息的存储和使用至关重要，并且通过转录和蛋白质生物合成来解释。核酶如剪接体和核糖体中的 RNA 与酶类似，因为它能催化化学反应。单个核苷是通过将核苷酸酶连接到核糖上而形成的。这些碱基是含氮的杂环，分类为嘌呤或嘧啶。核苷酸在代谢-基团转移反应中也作为辅酶。+ + 第269行：
第274行： − + 第275行：
第280行： − + − 新陈代谢涉及大量的化学反应，但大多数属于几种基本类型的反应，涉及原子的官能团及其在分子中的键的转移。这种常见的化学反应允许细胞使用一小组代谢中间物在不同反应之间携带化学基团。+ 第283行：
第288行： − + − 其中一个中心辅酶是三磷酸腺苷，是细胞的通用能量货币。这种核苷酸用于在不同的化学反应之间传递化学能。细胞中只有少量的三磷酸腺苷，但是随着细胞不断再生，人体每天可以使用大约自身重量的三磷酸腺苷。+ 第293行：
第298行： − 维生素是一种细胞不能合成的少量有机化合物。在人类营养中，大多数维生素在修饰后起辅酶的作用，例如，所有水溶性维生素在细胞中被磷酸化或与核苷酸结合。烟酰胺腺嘌呤二核苷酸(NAD < sup > + </sup >)是维生素 b < sub > 3 </sub > (烟酸)的衍生物，是一种重要的辅酶，作为氢受体。数百种不同类型的脱氢酶清除底物上的电子，并将 NAD < sup > + </sup > 减少为 NADH。这种还原形式的辅酶然后是一个底物的任何还原酶在细胞中，需要减少他们的底物。烟酰胺腺嘌呤二核苷酸以 NADH 和 NADPH 这两种相关的形式存在于细胞中。NAD < sup > + </sup >/NADH 形式在分解代谢反应中起重要作用，而 NADP < sup > + </sup >/NADPH 形式在分解代谢反应中起重要作用。+ 第301行：

第319行： − + 第321行：
第327行： − 丰富的无机元素充当电解质。最重要的离子是钠、钾、钙、镁、氯化物、磷酸盐和有机离子重碳酸盐。维持细胞膜上精确的离子梯度可以维持渗透压和 ph 值。离子对于神经和肌肉功能也是至关重要的，因为这些组织中的动作电位是由细胞外液和细胞液细胞溶胶之间的电解质交换产生的。电解质通过细胞膜上称为离子通道的蛋白质进出细胞。例如，肌肉收缩依赖于钙、钠和钾通过细胞膜和 t 管的离子通道的运动。+ 第329行：
第335行： − 过渡金属通常以微量元素的形式存在于生物体内，其中锌和铁最为丰富。这些金属元素在某些蛋白质中作为辅助因子，对于过氧化氢酶和氧载体蛋白质的活性至关重要，如血红蛋白金属辅助因子与蛋白质中的特定位点紧密结合，虽然酶辅助因子在催化过程中可以被修饰，但是它们总是在催化反应结束时恢复到原来的状态。金属微量营养素通过特定的转运体进入生物体内，并在不使用时与铁蛋白或金属硫蛋白等储存蛋白结合。+ + 第339行：
第346行： − 分解代谢是一系列分解大分子的新陈代谢过程。其中包括分解和氧化食物分子。分解代谢反应的目的是为生成分子的分解代谢反应提供所需的能量和成分。这些分解代谢反应的确切性质因生物体而异，生物体可根据其能量来源和碳(其主要营养组)加以分类，如下表所示。有机养生物利用有机分子作为能量来源，而岩养生物利用无机基质，光养生物利用阳光作为化学能。然而，所有这些不同形式的新陈代谢依赖于氧化还原反应，包括电子从还原供体分子，如有机分子，水，氨，硫化氢或亚铁离子转移到受体分子，如氧，硝酸盐或硫酸盐。在动物中，这些反应包括复杂的有机分子，它们被分解成更简单的分子，如二氧化碳和水。在诸如植物和蓝藻这样的光合生物体中，这些电子转移反应不释放能量，而是用来储存从阳光中吸收的能量。+ 第365行：

第443行： − 动物中最常见的分解代谢反应可以分为三个主要阶段。在第一阶段，大的有机分子，如蛋白质，多糖或脂类，被消化成细胞外的更小的组成部分。接下来，这些较小的分子被细胞吸收，转化成较小的分子，通常是乙酰辅酶A (乙酰辅酶 a) ，释放出一些能量。最后，辅酶 a 上的乙酰基被氧化成三羧酸循环和电子传递链中的水和二氧化碳，通过还原辅酶烟酰胺腺嘌呤二核苷酸(NAD < sup > + </sup >)而释放出能量。+ − + − Microbes simply secrete digestive enzymes into their surroundings, while animals only secrete these enzymes from specialized cells in their guts, including the stomach and pancreas, and salivary glands. The amino acids or sugars released by these extracellular enzymes are then pumped into cells by active transport proteins. − − 微生物只是简单地将消化酶分泌到周围环境中，而动物只是从它们肠道中的特定细胞分泌这些酶，包括胃、胰腺和唾液腺。这些细胞外酶释放的氨基酸或糖通过活性转运蛋白被泵入细胞内。 − A simplified outline of the catabolism of [[proteins, carbohydrates and fats]]+ − − [蛋白质，碳水化合物和脂肪]分解代谢的简化轮廓 + + + + + + + + − Carbohydrate catabolism is the breakdown of carbohydrates into smaller units. Carbohydrates are usually taken into cells once they have been digested into monosaccharides. Once inside, the major route of breakdown is glycolysis, where sugars such as glucose and fructose are converted into pyruvate and some ATP is generated. Pyruvate is an intermediate in several metabolic pathways, but the majority is converted to acetyl-CoA through aerobic (with oxygen) glycolysis and fed into the citric acid cycle. Although some more ATP is generated in the citric acid cycle, the most important product is NADH, which is made from NAD<sup>+</sup> as the acetyl-CoA is oxidized. This oxidation releases carbon dioxide as a waste product. In anaerobic conditions, glycolysis produces lactate, through the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase re-oxidizing NADH to NAD+ for re-use in glycolysis. An alternative route for glucose breakdown is the pentose phosphate pathway, which reduces the coenzyme NADPH and produces pentose sugars such as ribose, the sugar component of nucleic acids. − − 碳水化合物分解代谢是将碳水化合物分解成更小的单位。碳水化合物一旦被消化成单糖，通常就被带入细胞。一旦进入细胞内，糖酵解是主要的分解途径，葡萄糖和果糖等糖类被转化为丙酮酸，产生一些 ATP。丙酮酸是几种代谢途径中的中间体，但大多数通过有氧糖酵解转化为乙酰辅酶 a 并进入三羧酸循环。虽然三羧酸循环中有更多的 ATP 产生，但最重要的产物是 NADH，它是由 NAD < sup > + </sup > 氧化乙酰辅酶 a 而产生的。这种氧化作为废物释放出二氧化碳。在厌氧条件下，糖酵解通过乳酸脱氢酶还原 NADH 生成 NAD + ，再用于糖酵解，从而产生乳酸。葡萄糖分解的另一种途径是磷酸戊糖途径，它降低辅酶 NADPH 并产生戊糖，如核糖，核酸的糖组成部分。 + − Fats are catabolised by hydrolysis to free fatty acids and glycerol. The glycerol enters glycolysis and the fatty acids are broken down by beta oxidation to release acetyl-CoA, which then is fed into the citric acid cycle. Fatty acids release more energy upon oxidation than carbohydrates because carbohydrates contain more oxygen in their structures. Steroids are also broken down by some bacteria in a process similar to beta oxidation, and this breakdown process involves the release of significant amounts of acetyl-CoA, propionyl-CoA, and pyruvate, which can all be used by the cell for energy. M. tuberculosis can also grow on the lipid cholesterol as a sole source of carbon, and genes involved in the cholesterol use pathway(s) have been validated as important during various stages of the infection lifecycle of M. tuberculosis.+ − − 脂肪通过水解分解为游离脂肪酸和甘油。甘油进入糖酵解，脂肪酸被 β 氧化分解，释放出乙酰辅酶 a，然后进入三羧酸循环。脂肪酸在氧化时比碳水化合物释放更多的能量，因为碳水化合物的结构中含有更多的氧。一些细菌在类似于 β 氧化的过程中也会分解甾体，这个分解过程包括大量的乙酰辅酶 a、丙酰辅酶 a 和丙酮酸的释放，这些都可以被细胞用来提供能量。结核分枝杆菌也可以在作为碳的唯一来源的脂质胆固醇上生长，而且胆固醇使用途径中的基因已被证实在结核分枝杆菌感染生命周期的各个阶段都是重要的。 − − − Amino acids are either used to synthesize proteins and other biomolecules, or oxidized to urea and carbon dioxide as a source of energy. The oxidation pathway starts with the removal of the amino group by a transaminase. The amino group is fed into the urea cycle, leaving a deaminated carbon skeleton in the form of a keto acid. Several of these keto acids are intermediates in the citric acid cycle, for example the deamination of glutamate forms α-ketoglutarate. The glucogenic amino acids can also be converted into glucose, through gluconeogenesis (discussed below).+ − − 氨基酸可以用来合成蛋白质和其他生物分子，也可以被氧化成尿素和二氧化碳作为能量来源。氧化途径从转氨酶去除氨基开始。氨基进入尿素循环，留下酮酸形式的脱氨基碳骨架。其中一些酮酸是三羧酸循环的中间产物，例如谷氨酸的脱氨反应形成 α- 酮戊二酸。葡萄糖原氨基酸也可以通过葡萄糖异生转化为葡萄糖(下面讨论)。 − + + + + + − ==Energy transformations== − In oxidative phosphorylation, the electrons removed from organic molecules in areas such as the protagon acid cycle are transferred to oxygen and the energy released is used to make ATP. This is done in eukaryotes by a series of proteins in the membranes of mitochondria called the electron transport chain. In prokaryotes, these proteins are found in the cell's inner membrane. These proteins use the energy released from passing electrons from reduced molecules like NADH onto oxygen to pump protons across a membrane.+ − + − 在21氧化磷酸化，从有机分子中分离出来的电子被转移到氧气中，释放出来的能量被用来制造 ATP。这在真核生物中是通过一系列蛋白质在线粒体膜上完成的，这些蛋白质被称为电子传递链。在原核生物中，这些蛋白质存在于细胞的内膜中。这些蛋白质利用像 NADH 这样的还原分子通过电子释放到氧气上的能量，让质子穿过膜。 − + − Mechanism of [[ATP synthase. ATP is shown in red, ADP and phosphate in pink and the rotating stalk subunit in black.]] − − [ ATP 合成酶]的作用机制。ATP 显示为红色，ADP 和磷酸显示为粉红色，转柄亚基显示为黑色 − Pumping protons out of the mitochondria creates a proton concentration difference across the membrane and generates an electrochemical gradient. This force drives protons back into the mitochondrion through the base of an enzyme called ATP synthase. The flow of protons makes the stalk subunit rotate, causing the active site of the synthase domain to change shape and phosphorylate adenosine diphosphate – turning it into ATP. reduced sulfur compounds (such as sulfide, hydrogen sulfide and thiosulfate), or ammonia as sources of reducing power and they gain energy from the oxidation of these compounds with electron acceptors such as oxygen or nitrite. These microbial processes are important in global biogeochemical cycles such as acetogenesis, nitrification and denitrification and are critical for soil fertility.+ − − 将质子泵出线粒体会产生跨膜质子浓度的差异，并产生电化梯度。这种力量驱使质子通过一种叫做 ATP 合酶的酶的底部回到线粒体。质子流使茎亚单位旋转，导致合成酶结构域的活性位点改变形状并磷酸化二磷酸腺苷-将其转化为 ATP。还原硫化物(如硫化物、硫化氢和硫代硫酸盐)或氨作为还原能源，它们通过这些化合物与电子受体如氧或亚硝酸盐的氧化而获得能量。这些微生物过程在全球生物地球化学循环中具有重要作用，如醋酸生成、硝化和反硝化作用，对土壤肥力至关重要。 + + − In oxidative phosphorylation, the electrons removed from organic molecules in areas such as the protagon acid cycle are transferred to oxygen and the energy released is used to make ATP.

This process is often coupled to the conversion of carbon dioxide into organic compounds, as part of photosynthesis, which is discussed below. The energy capture and carbon fixation systems can however operate separately in prokaryotes, as purple bacteria and green sulfur bacteria can use sunlight as a source of energy, while switching between carbon fixation and the fermentation of organic compounds.+ − 阳光中的能量被植物、蓝藻、紫色细菌、绿菌门和一些原生生物吸收。作为光合作用的一部分，这个过程通常与二氧化碳转化为有机化合物相联系，下面将对此进行讨论。然而，原核生物中的能量捕获和固碳系统可以分开工作，因为紫细菌和绿菌门可以利用阳光作为能量来源，同时在固碳和发酵有机化合物之间切换。+ + − In many organisms, the capture of solar energy is similar in principle to oxidative phosphorylation, as it involves the storage of energy as a proton concentration gradient. This proton motive force then drives ATP synthesis The electrons needed to drive this electron transport chain come from light-gathering proteins called photosynthetic reaction centres. Reaction centers are classed into two types depending on the nature of photosynthetic pigment present, with most photosynthetic bacteria only having one type, while plants and cyanobacteria have two.+ − − 在许多生物体中，太阳能的获取原则上类似于氧化磷酸化，因为它包括以质子浓度梯度的形式储存能量。这种质子动力驱动 ATP 的合成驱动这种电子传递链所需的电子来自于聚光蛋白质，这种蛋白质叫做光合反应中心。根据存在的光合色素的性质，反应中心分为两种类型，大多数光合细菌只有一种类型，而植物和蓝藻有两种类型。 − − − In plants, algae, and cyanobacteria, photosystem II uses light energy to remove electrons from water, releasing oxygen as a waste product. The electrons then flow to the cytochrome b6f complex, which uses their energy to pump protons across the thylakoid membrane in the chloroplast.</sup>fThese cooenzyme can be used in the Calvin cycle, which is discussed below, or recycled for further ATP generation.+ − − 在植物、藻类和蓝细菌中，光系统 II 利用光能将电子从水中移走，作为废物释放氧气。然后电子流向细胞色素b6f蛋白复合体，利用它们的能量穿过叶绿体中的类囊体膜，泵出质子。这些库酶可以用于卡尔文循环，下面将讨论这个循环，或者循环用于生成更多的 ATP。 − + − + − + − Anabolism is the set of constructive metabolic processes where the energy released by catabolism is used to synthesize complex molecules. In general, the complex molecules that make up cellular structures are constructed step-by-step from small and simple precursors. Anabolism involves three basic stages. First, the production of precursors such as amino acids, monosaccharides, isoprenoids and nucleotides, secondly, their activation into reactive forms using energy from ATP, and thirdly, the assembly of these precursors into complex molecules such as proteins, polysaccharides, lipids and nucleic acids.+ − − 合成代谢是一套建设性的新陈代谢过程，其中分解代谢所释放的能量被用来合成复杂的分子。一般来说，组成细胞结构的复杂分子是由小而简单的前体逐步构成的。合成代谢包括三个基本阶段。首先，前体物质如氨基酸、单糖、异戊二烯和核苷酸的生成，其次，它们利用 ATP 的能量活化成反应形式，第三，这些前体物质组装成复杂的分子，如蛋白质、多糖、脂类和核酸。 − + − Anabolism in organisms can be different according to the source of constructed molecules in their cells. Autotrophs such as plants can construct the complex organic molecules in cells such as polysaccharides and proteins from simple molecules like carbon dioxide and water. Heterotrophs, on the other hand, require a source of more complex substances, such as monosaccharides and amino acids, to produce these complex molecules. Organisms can be further classified by ultimate source of their energy: photoautotrophs and photoheterotrophs obtain energy from light, whereas chemoautotrophs and chemoheterotrophs obtain energy from inorganic oxidation reactions. Three types of photosynthesis occur in plants, C3 carbon fixation, C4 carbon fixation and CAM photosynthesis. These differ by the route that carbon dioxide takes to the Calvin cycle, with C3 plants fixing CO<sub>2</sub> directly, while C4 and CAM photosynthesis incorporate the CO<sub>2</sub> into other compounds first, as adaptations to deal with intense sunlight and dry conditions.+ − − 生物体的合成代谢可以根据其细胞中构建分子的来源而有所不同。像植物这样的自养生物可以从二氧化碳和水这样的简单分子中构建复杂的细胞有机分子，如多糖和蛋白质。另一方面，异养菌需要更复杂的物质来源，如单糖和氨基酸，来产生这些复杂的分子。生物可以根据其能量的最终来源进一步分类: 光自养生物和光异养生物从光中获得能量，而化能自养生物和化能异养生物从无机氧化反应中获得能量。植物有3种类型的光合作用，c 3固碳作用，C4类二氧化碳固定和 CAM 光合作用。二氧化碳进入卡尔文循环的途径不同，C3植物直接固定 CO < sub > 2 </sub > ，而 C4和 CAM 首先将 CO < sub > 2 </sub > 合并到其他化合物中，以适应强烈的阳光和干燥条件。 + + − + − − 在光合作用的原核生物中，碳固定的机制更加多样。在这里，二氧化碳可以通过卡尔文-本森循环、反向三羧酸循环或乙酰辅酶 a 的羧化作用得到固定。原核化能自养生物也通过卡尔文-本森循环固定 CO < sub > 2 </sub > ，但利用无机化合物的能量来驱动反应。 − + + − + − + − − 在碳水化合物的合成代谢过程中，简单的有机酸可以转化为单糖如葡萄糖，然后用来聚集多糖如淀粉。从丙酮酸、乳酸、甘油、3- 磷酸甘油和氨基酸等化合物产生葡萄糖称为糖异生。葡萄糖异生通过一系列中间体将丙酮酸转化为葡萄糖-6-磷酸，其中许多中间体与糖酵解共享。 − + − Although fat is a common way of storing energy, in vertebrates such as humans the fatty acids in these stores cannot be converted to glucose through gluconeogenesis as these organisms cannot convert acetyl-CoA into pyruvate; plants do, but animals do not, have the necessary enzymatic machinery. As a result, after long-term starvation, vertebrates need to produce ketone bodies from fatty acids to replace glucose in tissues such as the brain that cannot metabolize fatty acids. In other organisms such as plants and bacteria, this metabolic problem is solved using the glyoxylate cycle, which bypasses the decarboxylation step in the citric acid cycle and allows the transformation of acetyl-CoA to oxaloacetate, where it can be used for the production of glucose. Other than fat, glucose is stored in most tissues, as an energy resource available within the tissue through glycogenesis which was usually being used to maintained glucose level in blood. + − − 虽然脂肪是储存能量的一种常见方式，但在脊椎动物如人类中，这些储存的脂肪酸不能通过糖异生作用转化为葡萄糖，因为这些生物不能将乙酰辅酶 a 转化为丙酮酸; 植物有，但动物没有。因此，在长期饥饿之后，脊椎动物需要从脂肪酸中产生酮体来代替大脑中不能代谢脂肪酸的葡萄糖。在其他生物体中，如植物和细菌，这种新陈代谢问题可以通过乙醛酸循环来解决，它绕过了三羧酸循环中的脱羧步骤，允许乙酰辅酶 a 转化为草酰乙酸，在那里它可以用来生产葡萄糖。除了脂肪，葡萄糖储存在大多数组织中，作为一种能量资源，通过糖生成在组织中可用于维持血液中的葡萄糖水平。 − + + + − Polysaccharides and glycans are made by the sequential addition of monosaccharides by glycosyltransferase from a reactive sugar-phosphate donor such as uridine diphosphate glucose (UDP-Glc) to an acceptor hydroxyl group on the growing polysaccharide. As any of the hydroxyl groups on the ring of the substrate can be acceptors, the polysaccharides produced can have straight or branched structures. The polysaccharides produced can have structural or metabolic functions themselves, or be transferred to lipids and proteins by enzymes called oligosaccharyltransferases.+ − − 多糖和聚糖是由糖基转移酶从活性糖-磷酸盐供体如尿苷二磷酸葡萄糖(UDP-Glc)顺序加入到生长中的多糖的受体羟基上形成的单糖。由于底物环上的任何羟基都可以作为受体，所以产生的多糖可以具有直的或分枝的结构。产生的多糖本身具有结构或代谢功能，或通过被称为寡糖转移酶的酶转移到脂质和蛋白质中。 − − {{further|Photosynthesis|Carbon fixation|Chemosynthesis}} − + − Simplified version of the [[steroid synthesis pathway with the intermediates isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP), dimethylallyl pyrophosphate (DMAPP), geranyl pyrophosphate (GPP) and squalene shown.

The acyl chains in the fatty acids are extended by a cycle of reactions that add the acyl group, reduce it to an alcohol, dehydrate it to an alkene group and then reduce it again to an alkane group. The enzymes of fatty acid biosynthesis are divided into two groups: in animals and fungi, all these fatty acid synthase reactions are carried out by a single multifunctional type I protein, while in plant plastids and bacteria separate type II enzymes perform each step in the pathway. − 脂肪酸是由脂肪酸合酶聚合，然后减少乙酰辅酶 a 单位。脂肪酸中的酰基链通过一系列反应得到延伸，这些反应加上酰基基团，将其还原成醇，将其还原成烯烃基团，然后再还原成烷烃基团。脂肪酸生物合成的酶分为两组: 在动物和真菌中，所有这些脂肪酸合酶反应都是由一个单一的多功能 i 型蛋白进行的，而在植物质体和细菌中，分离的 II 型酶在这个途径中执行每一步。+ + − + − Terpenes and isoprenoids are a large class of lipids that include the carotenoids and form the largest class of plant natural products. These compounds are made by the assembly and modification of isoprene units donated from the reactive precursors isopentenyl pyrophosphate and dimethylallyl pyrophosphate. These precursors can be made in different ways. In animals and archaea, the mevalonate pathway produces these compounds from acetyl-CoA, while in plants and bacteria the non-mevalonate pathway uses pyruvate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate as substrates. One important reaction that uses these activated isoprene donors is sterol biosynthesis. Here, the isoprene units are joined together to make squalene and then folded up and formed into a set of rings to make lanosterol. Lanosterol can then be converted into other sterol such as cholesterol and ergosterol. − − 萜烯和类异戊二烯是类脂的一大类，包括类胡萝卜素和形成最大类的植物天然产品。这些化合物是通过组装和改性异戊二烯单元而得到的，异戊二烯单元来自反应前体焦磷酸异戊烷和焦磷酸二甲基烯丙酯。这些前体可以用不同的方法制造。在动物和古生菌中，甲羟戊酸途径从乙酰辅酶 a 中产生这些化合物，而在植物和细菌中，非甲羟戊酸途径使用丙酮酸和甘油醛3-磷酸作为底物。使用这些活性异戊二烯供体的一个重要反应是甾醇生物合成。在这里，异戊二烯单元连接在一起生成角鲨烯，然后折叠起来形成一系列环状物，生成羊毛甾醇。羊毛甾醇可以转化为其他甾醇，如胆固醇和麦角甾醇。 − + − + + + − Organisms vary in their ability to synthesize the 20 common amino acids. Most bacteria and plants can synthesize all twenty, but mammals can only synthesize eleven nonessential amino acids, so nine essential amino acids must be obtained from food. All amino acids are synthesized from intermediates in glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, or the pentose phosphate pathway. Nitrogen is provided by glutamate and glutamine. Nonessensial amino acid synthesis depends on the formation of the appropriate alpha-keto acid, which is then transaminated to form an amino acid.+ − 生物体合成20种常见氨基酸的能力各不相同。大多数细菌和植物都能合成这二十种氨基酸，但是哺乳动物只能合成十一种非必需氨基酸，所以必须从食物中获得9种必需氨基酸。所有的氨基酸都是由糖酵解、三羧酸循环或磷酸戊糖途径的中间体合成的。氮由谷氨酸和谷氨酰胺提供。非氨基酸合成依赖于合适的 α- 酮酸的形成，然后转氨基酸形成氨基酸。+ − − + + − Amino acids are made into proteins by being joined together in a chain of peptide bonds. Each different protein has a unique sequence of amino acid residues: this is its primary structure. Just as the letters of the alphabet can be combined to form an almost endless variety of words, amino acids can be linked in varying sequences to form a huge variety of proteins. Proteins are made from amino acids that have been activated by attachment to a transfer RNA molecule through an ester bond. This aminoacyl-tRNA precursor is produced in an ATP-dependent reaction carried out by an aminoacyl tRNA synthetase. This aminoacyl-tRNA is then a substrate for the ribosome, which joins the amino acid onto the elongating protein chain, using the sequence information in a messenger RNA.+ − 氨基酸通过肽链连接在一起形成蛋白质。每个不同的蛋白质都有一个独特的氨基酸残基序列: 这是它的一级结构。正如字母表中的字母可以组合成几乎无穷无尽的单词一样，氨基酸可以以不同的顺序连接成各种各样的蛋白质。蛋白质是由氨基酸组成的，氨基酸通过酯键附着在转移 RNA 分子上而被激活。这个氨基酰基 trna 前体是由氨酰-tRNA合成酶通过依赖 atp 的反应生成的。这个氨基酰基 trna 是核糖体的底物，核糖体利用信使 RNA 中的序列信息将氨基酸连接到伸长的蛋白质链上。+ − Polysaccharides and [[glycan]]s are made by the sequential addition of monosaccharides by [[glycosyltransferase]] from a reactive sugar-phosphate donor such as [[uridine diphosphate glucose]] (UDP-Glc) to an acceptor [[hydroxyl]] group on the growing polysaccharide.

Consequently, most organisms have efficient systems to salvage preformed nucleotides. Purines are synthesized as nucleosides (bases attached to ribose). Both adenine and guanine are made from the precursor nucleoside inosine monophosphate, which is synthesized using atoms from the amino acids glycine, glutamine, and aspartic acid, as well as formate transferred from the coenzyme tetrahydrofolate. Pyrimidines, on the other hand, are synthesized from the base orotate, which is formed from glutamine and aspartate.+ + + − 核苷酸是由氨基酸，二氧化碳和甲酸在途径，需要大量的代谢能量。因此，大多数生物体都有有效的系统来回收预先形成的核苷酸。嘌呤被合成为核苷(核糖上的碱基)。腺嘌呤和鸟嘌呤都是由前体核苷苷单磷酸合成的，单磷酸是由甘氨酸、谷氨酰胺和天冬氨酸的氨基酸原子，以及从辅酶四氢叶酸转移来的甲酸盐合成的。另一方面，嘧啶是由由谷氨酰胺和天冬氨酸形成的碱性橙酸盐合成的。+ − [[File:Sterol synthesis.svg|thumb|right|upright=1.6|Simplified version of the [[steroid synthesis]] pathway with the intermediates [[isopentenyl pyrophosphate]] (IPP), [[dimethylallyl pyrophosphate]] (DMAPP), [[geranyl pyrophosphate]] (GPP) and [[squalene]] shown. Some intermediates are omitted for clarity.]]+ + + − All organisms are constantly exposed to compounds that they cannot use as foods and would be harmful if they accumulated in cells, as they have no metabolic function. These potentially damaging compounds are called xenobiotics. Xenobiotics such as synthetic drugs, natural poisons and antibiotics are detoxified by a set of xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes. In humans, these include cytochrome P450 oxidases, UDP-glucuronosyltransferases, and glutathione S-transferases. This system of enzymes acts in three stages to firstly oxidize the xenobiotic (phase I) and then conjugate water-soluble groups onto the molecule (phase II). The modified water-soluble xenobiotic can then be pumped out of cells and in multicellular organisms may be further metabolized before being excreted (phase III). In ecology, these reactions are particularly important in microbial biodegradation of pollutants and the bioremediation of contaminated land and oil spills. Many of these microbial reactions are shared with multicellular organisms, but due to the incredible diversity of types of microbes these organisms are able to deal with a far wider range of xenobiotics than multicellular organisms, and can degrade even persistent organic pollutants such as organochloride compounds.+ − − 所有的生物都不断地暴露在它们不能用作食物的化合物中，如果它们在细胞中积累起来就会有害，因为它们没有新陈代谢功能。这些具有潜在破坏性的化合物被称为异生物质。合成药物、天然毒物和抗生素等异生物是通过一系列异生物代谢酶来解毒的。在人类中，这些包括细胞色素 P450氧化酶、葡萄糖醛酸转移酶和谷胱甘肽 s- 转移酶。这个酶系统分为三个阶段，首先氧化异生物(第一阶段) ，然后将水溶性基团共轭到分子上(第二阶段)。经过修饰的水溶性异生物随后可以从细胞中泵出，在多细胞生物中，可以在排出之前进一步代谢(第三期)。在生态学中，这些反应在污染物的微生物降解以及污染土地和石油溢漏的生物修复中特别重要。许多这样的微生物反应是多细胞生物共有的，但是由于难以置信的微生物种类多样性，这些微生物能够处理比多细胞生物更广泛的异生物，甚至能够降解有机氯化合物等持久性有机污染物。 − + − + − A related problem for aerobic organisms is oxidative stress. Here, processes including oxidative phosphorylation and the formation of disulfide bonds during protein folding produce reactive oxygen species such as hydrogen peroxide. These damaging oxidants are removed by antioxidant metabolites such as glutathione and enzymes such as catalases and peroxidases. − − 对于需氧生物来说，一个相关的问题是氧化应激。在这里，包括氧化磷酸化和蛋白质折叠过程中二硫键形成的过程产生了活性氧类，如过氧化氢。这些破坏性的氧化剂被抗氧化代谢物，如谷胱甘肽和酶，如过氧化氢酶和过氧化物酶去除。 − − + + − + − Living organisms must obey the laws of thermodynamics, which describe the transfer of heat and work. The second law of thermodynamics states that in any closed system, the amount of entropy (disorder) cannot decrease. Although living organisms' amazing complexity appears to contradict this law, life is possible as all organisms are open systems that exchange matter and energy with their surroundings. Thus living systems are not in equilibrium, but instead are dissipative systems that maintain their state of high complexity by causing a larger increase in the entropy of their environments. The metabolism of a cell achieves this by coupling the spontaneous processes of catabolism to the non-spontaneous processes of anabolism. In thermodynamic terms, metabolism maintains order by creating disorder. − − 活的有机体必须服从热力学定律，它描述了热和功的传递。热力学第二定律指出，在任何封闭系统中，熵(无序)的数量不能减少。虽然生物体惊人的复杂性似乎与这一定律相矛盾，但生命是可能的，因为所有生物体都是开放的系统，与周围环境交换物质和能量。因此，生命系统不是处于平衡状态，而是耗散系统，它们通过引起环境熵的增加来维持其高度复杂的状态。细胞的新陈代谢是通过将自发的分解代谢过程与非自发的合成代谢过程耦合起来来实现这一点的。在热力学术语中，新陈代谢通过创造无序来维持秩序。 + + − + − As the environments of most organisms are constantly changing, the reactions of metabolism must be finely regulated to maintain a constant set of conditions within cells, a condition called homeostasis. Metabolic regulation also allows organisms to respond to signals and interact actively with their environments. Two closely linked concepts are important for understanding how metabolic pathways are controlled. Firstly, the regulation of an enzyme in a pathway is how its activity is increased and decreased in response to signals. Secondly, the control exerted by this enzyme is the effect that these changes in its activity have on the overall rate of the pathway (the flux through the pathway). For example, an enzyme may show large changes in activity (i.e. it is highly regulated) but if these changes have little effect on the flux of a metabolic pathway, then this enzyme is not involved in the control of the pathway.+ − − 由于大多数有机体的环境是不断变化的，新陈代谢的反应必须精细地调节，以维持细胞内一套恒定的条件，这种条件称为内环境平衡。代谢调节也使生物体对信号作出反应，并与环境积极互动。两个紧密相连的概念对于理解代谢途径是如何被控制的非常重要。首先，调节一个途径中的酶是如何增加和减少其活性响应信号。其次，这种酶的控制作用是其活性的这些变化对整个通路的速率(通过通路的通量)的影响。例如，一种酶的活性可能会发生很大的变化(例如:。但是如果这些变化对代谢途径的通量影响不大，那么这种酶就不参与控制这条通路。 − Effect of insulin on glucose uptake and metabolism. Insulin binds to its receptor (1), which in turn starts many protein activation cascades (2). These include: translocation of Glut-4 transporter to the [[plasma membrane and influx of glucose (3), glycogen synthesis (4), glycolysis (5) and fatty acid synthesis (6).]]+ − − 胰岛素对葡萄糖摄取和代谢的影响。胰岛素与其受体(1)结合，从而启动许多蛋白质激活级联(2)。这些包括: 转运葡萄糖 -4到[质膜和葡萄糖内流(3) ，糖原合成(4) ，糖酵解(5)和脂肪酸合成(6)]。] − + + + − There are multiple levels of metabolic regulation. In intrinsic regulation, the metabolic pathway self-regulates to respond to changes in the levels of substrates or products; for example, a decrease in the amount of product can increase the flux through the pathway to compensate. Extrinsic control involves a cell in a multicellular organism changing its metabolism in response to signals from other cells. These signals are usually in the form of water soluble messengers such as hormones and growth factors and are detected by specific receptors on the cell surface. These signals are then transmitted inside the cell by second messenger systems that often involved the phosphorylation of proteins.+ − − 代谢调节有多个层次。在内在调节中，代谢途径通过自我调节来响应底物或产品水平的变化; 例如，产品数量的减少可以通过通路增加通量来补偿。外部控制包括多细胞生物中的一个细胞响应其他细胞的信号改变其新陈代谢。这些信号通常以水溶性信使的形式存在，如激素和生长因子，并被细胞表面的特定受体检测到。然后，这些信号通过第二信使系统在细胞内传递，这些信使系统通常涉及蛋白质的磷酸化。 − − {{further|Xenobiotic metabolism|Drug metabolism|Alcohol metabolism|Antioxidant}} − A very well understood example of extrinsic control is the regulation of glucose metabolism by the hormone insulin. Insulin is produced in response to rises in blood glucose levels. Binding of the hormone to insulin receptors on cells then activates a cascade of protein kinases that cause the cells to take up glucose and convert it into storage molecules such as fatty acids and glycogen. The metabolism of glycogen is controlled by activity of phosphorylase, the enzyme that breaks down glycogen, and glycogen synthase, the enzyme that makes it. These enzymes are regulated in a reciprocal fashion, with phosphorylation inhibiting glycogen synthase, but activating phosphorylase. Insulin causes glycogen synthesis by activating protein phosphatases and producing a decrease in the phosphorylation of these enzymes.+ − − 外在控制的一个很好理解的例子是通过激素胰岛素调节葡萄糖代谢。胰岛素的产生是对血糖水平上升的反应。这种激素与细胞上的胰岛素受体结合，然后激活一系列蛋白激酶，使细胞吸收葡萄糖并将其转化为储存分子，如脂肪酸和糖原。糖原的新陈代谢受到分解糖原的磷酸化酶和制造糖原的糖原合成酶的活性控制。这些酶是调节在一个相互的方式，磷酸化抑制糖原合成酶，但激活磷酸化酶。胰岛素通过激活蛋白磷酸酶导致糖原合成，并减少这些酶的磷酸化。 − + + + − + − Evolutionary tree showing the common ancestry of organisms from all three domains of life.

This universal ancestral cell was prokaryotic and probably a methanogen that had extensive amino acid, nucleotide, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. The retention of these ancient pathways during later evolution may be the result of these reactions having been an optimal solution to their particular metabolic problems, with pathways such as glycolysis and the citric acid cycle producing their end products highly efficiently and in a minimal number of steps.+ − − 上面描述的代谢中枢途径，如糖酵解和三羧酸循环，存在于生物体的所有3个领域，并存在于最后一个普遍共同祖先。这个普遍的原始细胞是原核的，可能是含有大量氨基酸、核苷酸、碳水化合物和脂质代谢的产甲烷菌。在后期进化过程中保留这些古老的途径可能是这些反应的结果，这些反应是它们特定代谢问题的最佳解决方案，通过糖酵解和三羧酸循环等途径高效且以最少的步骤生产它们的最终产物。 + − + − Many models have been proposed to describe the mechanisms by which novel metabolic pathways evolve. These include the sequential addition of novel enzymes to a short ancestral pathway, the duplication and then divergence of entire pathways as well as the recruitment of pre-existing enzymes and their assembly into a novel reaction pathway. The relative importance of these mechanisms is unclear, but genomic studies have shown that enzymes in a pathway are likely to have a shared ancestry, suggesting that many pathways have evolved in a step-by-step fashion with novel functions created from pre-existing steps in the pathway. An alternative model comes from studies that trace the evolution of proteins' structures in metabolic networks, this has suggested that enzymes are pervasively recruited, borrowing enzymes to perform similar functions in different metabolic pathways (evident in the MANET database) These recruitment processes result in an evolutionary enzymatic mosaic. A third possibility is that some parts of metabolism might exist as "modules" that can be reused in different pathways and perform similar functions on different molecules. − − 许多模型被提出来描述新的代谢途径进化的机制。其中包括将新的酶连续添加到一个短的祖先途径，整个途径的复制和分化，以及将原有的酶补充并将其组装成一个新的反应途径。这些机制的相对重要性尚不清楚，但基因组学研究表明，一条途径中的酶可能有共同的祖先，这表明许多途径是一步一步地进化的，具有从该途径中已存在的步骤中创造出的新功能。一个替代模型来自于跟踪代谢网络中蛋白质结构进化的研究，这表明酶在不同的代谢途径中普遍被征用，借用酶来执行相似的功能(在 MANET 数据库中显而易见)这些征用过程导致了进化的酶马赛克。第三种可能性是，新陈代谢的某些部分可能作为“模块”存在，可以在不同的途径中重复使用，并对不同的分子执行类似的功能。 + + − {{further|Metabolic pathway|Metabolic control analysis|Hormone|Regulatory enzymes|Cell signaling}}+ − + − 除了新代谢途径的进化，进化也会导致代谢功能的丧失。例如，在一些寄生虫中，非生存所必需的新陈代谢过程会丢失，而预先形成的氨基酸、核苷酸和碳水化合物可能会从寄主身上清除掉。在内共生生物体中也可以看到类似的代谢能力下降。+ − As the environments of most organisms are constantly changing, the reactions of metabolism must be finely [[Control theory|regulated]] to maintain a constant set of conditions within cells, a condition called [[homeostasis]].<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Albert R | title = Scale-free networks in cell biology | journal = Journal of Cell Science | volume = 118 | issue = Pt 21 | pages = 4947–57 | date = November 2005 | pmid = 16254242 | doi = 10.1242/jcs.02714 | arxiv = q-bio/0510054 | s2cid = 3001195 | bibcode = 2005q.bio....10054A }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Brand MD | title = Regulation analysis of energy metabolism | journal = The Journal of Experimental Biology | volume = 200 | issue = Pt 2 | pages = 193–202 | date = January 1997 | pmid = 9050227 | url = http://jeb.biologists.org/cgi/reprint/200/2/193 }}</ref> Metabolic regulation also allows organisms to respond to signals and interact actively with their environments.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Soyer OS, Salathé M, Bonhoeffer S | title = Signal transduction networks: topology, response and biochemical processes | journal = Journal of Theoretical Biology | volume = 238 | issue = 2 | pages = 416–25 | date = January 2006 | pmid = 16045939 | doi = 10.1016/j.jtbi.2005.05.030 }}</ref> Two closely linked concepts are important for understanding how metabolic pathways are controlled.

Particularly valuable is the use of radioactive tracers at the whole-organism, tissue and cellular levels, which define the paths from precursors to final products by identifying radioactively labelled intermediates and products. The enzymes that catalyze these chemical reactions can then be purified and their kinetics and responses to inhibitors investigated. A parallel approach is to identify the small molecules in a cell or tissue; the complete set of these molecules is called the metabolome. Overall, these studies give a good view of the structure and function of simple metabolic pathways, but are inadequate when applied to more complex systems such as the metabolism of a complete cell.+ − − 传统上，新陈代谢的研究是通过一个简化的方法，集中在一个单一的代谢途径。特别有价值的是在整个生物体、组织和细胞层面使用放射性示踪剂，通过确定放射性标记的中间体和产品，确定从前体到最终产品的路径。然后可以提纯催化这些化学反应的酶，并研究它们的动力学和对抑制剂的反应。一种类似的方法是鉴定细胞或组织中的小分子，这些小分子的完整组合被称为代谢组。总的来说，这些研究对简单代谢途径的结构和功能提供了一个很好的观点，但是当应用于更复杂的系统时，例如一个完整的细胞的代谢时，这些研究是不充分的。 − + + + − An idea of the complexity of the metabolic networks in cells that contain thousands of different enzymes is given by the figure showing the interactions between just 43 proteins and 40 metabolites to the right: the sequences of genomes provide lists containing anything up to 26.500 genes.

These models are especially powerful when used to integrate the pathway and metabolite data obtained through classical methods with data on gene expression from proteomic and DNA microarray studies. Using these techniques, a model of human metabolism has now been produced, which will guide future drug discovery and biochemical research.

He wrote that "alcoholic fermentation is an act correlated with the life and organization of the yeast cells, not with the death or putrefaction of the cells." This discovery, along with the publication by Friedrich Wöhler in 1828 of a paper on the chemical synthesis of urea, and is notable for being the first organic compound prepared from wholly inorganic precursors.

The three main purposes of metabolism are: the conversion of food to [[energy]] to run cellular processes; the conversion of food/fuel to building blocks for [[protein]]s, [[lipid]]s, [[nucleic acid]]s, and some [[carbohydrate]]s; and the elimination of [[Metabolic waste|metabolic wastes]]. These [[enzyme]]-catalyzed reactions allow organisms to grow and reproduce, maintain their structures, and respond to their environments. (The word metabolism can also refer to the sum of all chemical reactions that occur in living organisms, including [[digestion]] and the transport of substances into and between different cells, in which case the above described set of reactions within the cells is called intermediary metabolism or intermediate metabolism).

新陈代谢（/məˈtæbəlɪzəm/，来自希腊语：μεταβολή metabolē，"变化"）是生物体内维持生命的’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’>化学反应 chemical reaction</font>’’’。新陈代谢的三个主要目的是：将食物转化为能量以进行细胞处理；将食物/燃料转化为’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’> 蛋白质proteins</font>’’’、’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’> 脂类lipids</font>’’’、’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’> 核酸 nucleic acids</font>’’’和一些’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’>碳水化合物carbohydrates </font>’’’的构件；以及消除’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’> 代谢废物 metabolic wastes</font>’’’。这些酶催化的反应使生物体得以生长和繁殖，维持其结构，并对其环境作出反应。新陈代谢这个词也可以指生物体内发生的所有化学反应的总和，包括消化和物质在不同细胞内和细胞之间的运输，在这种情况下，上述细胞内的一系列反应称为中间代谢或中间代谢）。
Metabolic reactions may be categorized as ''[[catabolic]]'' – the ''breaking down'' of compounds (for example, the breaking down of glucose to pyruvate by [[cellular respiration]]); or ''[[anabolic]]'' – the ''building up'' ([[biosynthesis|synthesis]]) of compounds (such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids). Usually, catabolism releases energy, and anabolism consumes energy.

新陈代谢反应可分为’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’> 分解代谢catabolic </font>’’’分解代谢-分解化合物(例如，通过’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’>细胞呼吸 cellular respiration</font>’’’将葡萄糖分解为丙酮酸) ; 或合成-合成化合物(例如蛋白质、碳水化合物、脂类和核酸)。通常，分解代谢释放能量，合成代谢消耗能量。
The chemical reactions of metabolism are organized into metabolic pathways, in which one chemical is transformed through a series of steps into another chemical, each step being facilitated by a specific enzyme. Enzymes are crucial to metabolism because they allow organisms to drive desirable reactions that require energy that will not occur by themselves, by coupling them to spontaneous reactions that release energy. Enzymes act as catalysts – they allow a reaction to proceed more rapidly – and they also allow the regulation of the rate of a metabolic reaction, for example in response to changes in the cell's environment or to signals from other cells.

新陈代谢的化学反应被组织成代谢途径，在代谢途径中，一种化学物质通过一系列步骤转化为另一种化学物质，每一步都由特定的’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’>酶 enzyme </font>’’’来促进。酶对新陈代谢至关重要，因为它们通过将生物体与释放能量的自发反应耦合，使生物体能够驱动需要能量的理想反应，而这些反应本身不会发生。酶起催化剂的作用——它们使反应进行得更快——它们还可以调节代谢反应的速率，例如对细胞环境的变化或其他细胞发出的信号作出反应。
The metabolic system of a particular organism determines which substances it will find nutritious and which poisonous. For example, some prokaryotes use hydrogen sulfide as a nutrient, yet this gas is poisonous to animals. The basal metabolic rate of an organism is the measure of the amount of energy consumed by all of these chemical reactions.

特定生物体的新陈代谢系统决定了哪些物质有营养，哪些有毒。例如，一些’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’> 原核生物prokaryotes</font>’’’利用硫化氢作为营养物质，然而这种气体对动物是有毒的。生物体的’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’>基础代谢率basal metabolic rate </font>’’’是衡量所有这些化学反应所消耗的能量。
A striking feature of metabolism is the similarity of the basic metabolic pathways among vastly different species. For example, the set of carboxylic acids that are best known as the intermediates in the citric acid cycle are present in all known organisms, being found in species as diverse as the unicellular bacterium Escherichia coli and huge multicellular organisms like elephants. These similarities in metabolic pathways are likely due to their early appearance in evolutionary history, and their retention because of their efficacy. The metabolism of cancer cells is also different from the metabolism of normal cells and these differences can be used to find targets for therapeutic intervention in cancer.

新陈代谢的一个显著特征是，不同物种之间的基本新陈代谢途径具有相似性。例如，作为’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’>三羧酸循环 citric acid cycle</font>’’’中的中间体，最著名的一组羧酸存在于所有已知的生物体中，在单细胞细菌’’’<font color=’’#ff8000’’>大肠杆菌 Escherichia coli</font>’’’和巨大的多细胞生物（如大象）中都能找到。 这些代谢途径的相似性很可能是由于它们在进化史上的早期出现，又因为它们的功效而保留下来。癌细胞的代谢也不同于正常细胞的代谢，这些差异可以用来寻找癌细胞治疗的靶点。

Most of the structures that make up animals, plants and microbes are made from four basic classes of molecule: amino acids, carbohydrates , nucleic acid and lipids (often called fats). As these molecules are vital for life, metabolic reactions either focus on making these molecules during the construction of cells and tissues, or by breaking them down and using them as a source of energy, by their digestion. These biochemicals can be joined together to make polymers such as DNA and proteins, essential macromolecules of life.

Proteins are made of amino acids arranged in a linear chain joined together by peptide bonds. Many proteins are enzymes that catalyze the chemical reactions in metabolism. Other proteins have structural or mechanical functions, such as those that form the cytoskeleton, a system of scaffolding that maintains the cell shape. Proteins are also important in cell signaling, immune responses, cell adhesion, active transport across membranes, and the cell cycle. Amino acids also contribute to cellular energy metabolism by providing a carbon source for entry into the citric acid cycle (tricarboxylic acid cycle), especially when a primary source of energy, such as glucose, is scarce, or when cells undergo metabolic stress.

其中一个核心辅酶是三磷酸腺苷（ATP），是细胞的通用能源货币。这种核苷酸用于在不同的化学反应之间传递化学能量。细胞中只有少量的ATP，但由于ATP是不断再生的，所以人体每天可以使用大约自身重量的ATP。ATP是分解代谢和合成代谢之间的桥梁。分解代谢分解分子，合成代谢将它们组合在一起。分解反应产生ATP，合成代谢反应消耗ATP。它也是磷酸化反应中磷酸基团的载体。
A vitamin is an organic compound needed in small quantities that cannot be made in cells. In human nutrition, most vitamins function as coenzymes after modification; for example, all water-soluble vitamins are phosphorylated or are coupled to nucleotides when they are used in cells. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD<sup>+</sup>), a derivative of vitamin B<sub>3</sub> (niacin), is an important coenzyme that acts as a hydrogen acceptor. Hundreds of separate types of dehydrogenases remove electrons from their substrates and reduce NAD<sup>+</sup> into NADH. This reduced form of the coenzyme is then a substrate for any of the reductases in the cell that need to reduce their substrates. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide exists in two related forms in the cell, NADH and NADPH. The NAD<sup>+</sup>/NADH form is more important in catabolic reactions, while NADP<sup>+</sup>/NADPH is used in anabolic reactions.

The abundant inorganic elements act as electrolytes. The most important ions are sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, chloride, phosphate and the organic ion bicarbonate. The maintenance of precise ion gradients across cell membranes maintains osmotic pressure and pH. Ions are also critical for nerve and muscle function, as action potentials in these tissues are produced by the exchange of electrolytes between the extracellular fluid and the cell's fluid, the cytosol. Electrolytes enter and leave cells through proteins in the cell membrane called ion channels. For example, muscle contraction depends upon the movement of calcium, sodium and potassium through ion channels in the cell membrane and T-tubules.

Transition metals are usually present as trace elements in organisms, with zinc and iron being most abundant of those. These metals are used in some proteins as cofactors and are essential for the activity of enzymes such as catalase and oxygen-carrier proteins such as hemoglobin Metal cofactors are bound tightly to specific sites in proteins; although enzyme cofactors can be modified during catalysis, they always return to their original state by the end of the reaction catalyzed. Metal micronutrients are taken up into organisms by specific transporters and bind to storage proteins such as ferritin or metallothionein when not in use.

分解代谢是指分解大分子的一系列代谢过程。其中包括分解和氧化食物分子。分解代谢反应的目的是为构建分子的合成代谢反应提供所需的能量和成分。这些分解代谢反应的确切性质因生物体而异，生物体可以根据它们的能量和碳的来源（其主要营养组）进行分类，如下表所示。有机养生物利用有机分子作为能量来源，而岩养生物利用无机基质，光养生物利用阳光作为化学能。然而，所有这些不同形式的新陈代谢都依赖于氧化还原反应，这些反应涉及电子从还原的供体分子（如有机分子，水，氨，硫化氢或亚铁离子）转移到受体分子（如氧，硝酸盐或硫酸盐）。在动物中，这些反应涉及复杂的有机分子，它们被分解成更简单的分子，如二氧化碳和水。在诸如植物和蓝藻这样的光合生物体中，这些电子转移反应不释放能量，而是用来储存从阳光中吸收的能量。

The most common set of catabolic reactions in animals can be separated into three main stages. In the first stage, large organic molecules, such as proteins, polysaccharides or lipids, are digested into their smaller components outside cells. Next, these smaller molecules are taken up by cells and converted to smaller molecules, usually acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA), which releases some energy. Finally, the acetyl group on the CoA is oxidised to water and carbon dioxide in the citric acid cycle and electron transport chain, releasing the energy that is stored by reducing the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD<sup>+</sup>) into NADH.

动物中最常见的分解代谢反应可以分为三个主要阶段。在第一阶段，大的有机分子，如蛋白质，多糖或脂类，在细胞外被消化成较小的成分。接下来，这些较小的分子被细胞吸收并转化成小分子，通常是乙酰辅酶A (acetyl-CoA) ，释放出一些能量。最后，辅酶 a 上的乙酰基被氧化成三羧酸循环和电子传递链中的水和二氧化碳，释放出储存的能量，将辅酶烟酰胺腺嘌呤二核苷酸（NAD<sup>+</sup>）还原成NADH。

Carbohydrate catabolism is the breakdown of carbohydrates into smaller units. Carbohydrates are usually taken into cells once they have been digested into monosaccharides. Once inside, the major route of breakdown is glycolysis, where sugars such as glucose and fructose are converted into pyruvate and some ATP is generated. Pyruvate is an intermediate in several metabolic pathways, but the majority is converted to acetyl-CoA through aerobic (with oxygen) glycolysis and fed into the citric acid cycle. Although some more ATP is generated in the citric acid cycle, the most important product is NADH, which is made from NAD<sup>+</sup> as the acetyl-CoA is oxidized. This oxidation releases carbon dioxide as a waste product. In anaerobic conditions, glycolysis produces lactate, through the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase re-oxidizing NADH to NAD+ for re-use in glycolysis. An alternative route for glucose breakdown is the pentose phosphate pathway, which reduces the coenzyme NADPH and produces pentose sugars such as ribose, the sugar component of nucleic acids.
碳水化合物分解代谢是将碳水化合物分解成较小的单位。碳水化合物一旦被消化成单糖，通常就被带入细胞。一旦进入细胞内，分解的主要途径就是糖酵解，其中糖（例如葡萄糖和果糖）被转化为丙酮酸并生成一些ATP。丙酮酸是几种代谢途径中的中间体，但大多数通过有氧（含氧）糖酵解转化为乙酰辅酶 a 并进入三羧酸循环。尽管在三羧酸循环中会产生更多的ATP，但最重要的产物是NADH，它是由 NAD < sup > + </sup > 在乙酰辅酶A被氧化后制成的。这种氧化释放出作为废物的二氧化碳。在厌氧条件下，糖酵解产生乳酸，通过乳酸脱氢酶将NADH重新氧化为NAD < sup > + </sup > 再用于糖酵解。葡萄糖分解的另一种途径是磷酸戊糖途径，它降低辅酶NADPH并产生戊糖，如核糖，核糖是核酸的糖成分。
Fats are catabolised by [[hydrolysis]] to free fatty acids and glycerol. The glycerol enters glycolysis and the fatty acids are broken down by [[beta oxidation]] to release acetyl-CoA, which then is fed into the citric acid cycle. Fatty acids release more energy upon oxidation than carbohydrates because carbohydrates contain more oxygen in their structures. Steroids are also broken down by some bacteria in a process similar to beta oxidation, and this breakdown process involves the release of significant amounts of acetyl-CoA, propionyl-CoA, and pyruvate, which can all be used by the cell for energy.

脂肪通过水解分解为游离脂肪酸和甘油。甘油进入糖酵解，脂肪酸被 β氧化分解，释放出乙酰辅酶 a，然后进入三羧酸循环。脂肪酸在氧化时比碳水化合物释放更多的能量，因为碳水化合物的结构中含有更多的氧。类固醇也会被一些细菌在类似于 β 氧化的过程中分解，这个分解过程会释放出大量的乙酰辅酶 a、丙酰辅酶 a 和丙酮酸的释放，这些都可以被细胞用来提供能量。结核杆菌也可以依靠脂质胆固醇作为唯一的碳源生长，而且参与胆固醇利用途径的基因已经被证实在结核杆菌感染生命周期的不同阶段都是重要的。

This is done in eukaryotes by a series of proteins in the membranes of mitochondria called the electron transport chain. In prokaryotes, these proteins are found in the cell's inner membrane. These proteins use the energy released from passing electrons from reduced molecules like NADH onto oxygen to pump protons across a membrane.
在氧化磷酸化过程中，电子从有机分子中移出，例如在初磷脂酸循环的区域被转移到氧气中，释放的能量被用来制造ATP。这在真核生物中是通过线粒体膜中的一系列蛋白质来完成的，这些蛋白质被称为电子传递链。在原核生物中，这些蛋白质存在于细胞的内膜中。这些蛋白质利用电子从还原性分子(如NADH)传递到氧气所释放的能量来泵送质子穿过细胞膜。

Chemolithotrophy is a type of metabolism found in prokaryotes where energy is obtained from the oxidation of inorganic compounds. These organisms can use hydrogen, reduced sulfur compounds (such as sulfide, hydrogen sulfide and thiosulfate), or ammonia as sources of reducing power and they gain energy from the oxidation of these compounds with electron acceptors such as oxygen or nitrite. These microbial processes are important in global biogeochemical cycles such as acetogenesis, nitrification and denitrification and are critical for soil fertility.

In carbohydrate anabolism, simple organic acids can be converted into monosaccharides such as glucose and then used to assemble polysaccharides such as starch. The generation of glucose from compounds like pyruvate, lactate, glycerol, glycerate 3-phosphate and amino acids is called gluconeogenesis. Gluconeogenesis converts pyruvate to glucose-6-phosphate through a series of intermediates, many of which are shared with glycolysis.

Photosynthesis is the synthesis of carbohydrates from sunlight and carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>). In plants, cyanobacteria and algae, oxygenic photosynthesis splits water, with oxygen produced as a waste product. This process uses the ATP and NADPH produced by the photosynthetic reaction centres, as described above, to convert CO<sub>2</sub> into glycerate 3-phosphate, which can then be converted into glucose. This carbon-fixation reaction is carried out by the enzyme RuBisCO as part of the Calvin – Benson cycle.[64] Three types of photosynthesis occur in plants, C3 carbon fixation, C4 carbon fixation and CAM photosynthesis. These differ by the route that carbon dioxide takes to the Calvin cycle, with C3 plants fixing CO2 directly, while C4 and CAM photosynthesis incorporate the CO2 into other compounds first, as adaptations to deal with intense sunlight and dry conditions.
光合作用是由阳光和二氧化碳(CO<sub>2</sub>)合成碳水化合物。在植物中，蓝藻和藻类，产生氧气的光合作用分解水，产生氧气作为废物。如上所述，这一过程利用光合反应中心产生的ATP和NADPH。将CO<sub>2</sub>转化为三磷酸甘油酯，然后再转化为葡萄糖。这个固碳反应是由RuBisCO酶作为卡尔文-本森Calvin – Benson 循环的一部分进行的。植物有三种类型的光合作用:C3固碳、C4固碳和CAM光合作用。不同之处在于二氧化碳进入卡尔文循环的路径不同，C3植物直接固定二氧化碳，而C4和CAM植物首先将二氧化碳吸收到其他化合物中，以适应强烈的阳光和干燥的环境。

在碳水化合物合成代谢过程中，简单的有机酸可转化为葡萄糖等单糖，再用于合成淀粉等多糖。由丙酮酸、乳酸、甘油、3-磷酸甘油酸和氨基酸等化合物生成葡萄糖称为葡萄糖异生。糖异生作用通过一系列中间产物将丙酮酸转化为葡萄糖-6-磷酸，其中许多中间产物与糖酵解过程相同。然而，这一途径并不是简单的糖酵解逆向运行，因为有几个步骤是由非糖酵解酶催化的。这是很重要的，因为它允许葡萄糖的形成和分解被分别调节，并防止两条途径在无效循环中同时运行。

Although fat is a common way of storing energy, in vertebrates such as humans the fatty acids in these stores cannot be converted to glucose through gluconeogenesis as these organisms cannot convert acetyl-CoA into pyruvate; plants do, but animals do not, have the necessary enzymatic machinery. As a result, after long-term starvation, vertebrates need to produce ketone bodies from fatty acids to replace glucose in tissues such as the brain that cannot metabolize fatty acids. In other organisms such as plants and bacteria, this metabolic problem is solved using the glyoxylate cycle, which bypasses the decarboxylation step in the citric acid cycle and allows the transformation of acetyl-CoA to oxaloacetate, where it can be used for the production of glucose. Other than fat, glucose is stored in most tissues, as an energy resource available within the tissue through glycogenesis which was usually being used to maintained glucose level in blood.

虽然脂肪是储存能量的一种常见方式，但在脊椎动物(如人类)体内储存的脂肪酸不能通过葡萄糖异生作用转化为葡萄糖，因为这些生物不能将乙酰辅酶a转化为丙酮酸;植物有必要的酶催化机制，而动物没有。因此，在长期饥饿后，脊椎动物需要从脂肪酸中产生酮体，以取代大脑等不能代谢脂肪酸的组织中的葡萄糖。在其他生物体如植物和细菌中，这个代谢问题是通过乙醛酸循环来解决的。乙醛酸循环绕过三羧酸循环中的脱羧步骤，并允许乙酰辅酶a转化为草酰乙酸，在那里它可以用来生产葡萄糖。除了脂肪，葡萄糖作为一种能量资源储存在大多数组织中，通过糖化通常被用于维持血液中的葡萄糖水平。

脂肪酸是由脂肪酸合成酶聚合后还原乙酰辅酶A单位制成的。脂肪酸中的酰基链通过一系列反应得以延伸，这些反应包括:添加酰基，将其还原为醇，脱水成烯烃基团，然后再还原为烷烃基团。脂肪酸生物合成的酶分为两类：在动物和真菌中，所有这些脂肪酸合成酶的反应都是由单一的多功能I型蛋白来完成的，而在植物的质体和细菌中，则由单独的II型酶来完成途径中的每一步。

Terpenes and isoprenoids are a large class of lipids that include the carotenoids and form the largest class of plant natural products. These compounds are made by the assembly and modification of isoprene units donated from the reactive precursors isopentenyl pyrophosphate and dimethylallyl pyrophosphate. These precursors can be made in different ways. In animals and archaea, the mevalonate pathway produces these compounds from acetyl-CoA, while in plants and bacteria the non-mevalonate pathway uses pyruvate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate as substrates. One important reaction that uses these activated isoprene donors is sterol biosynthesis. Here, the isoprene units are joined together to make squalene and then folded up and formed into a set of rings to make lanosterol. Lanosterol can then be converted into other sterol such as cholesterol and ergosterol.
萜烯和异戊二烯是一大类脂类，包括类胡萝卜素，是最大的一类植物天然产品。这些化合物是由反应性前体焦磷酸异戊烯酯和焦磷酸二甲基烯丙基酯所捐献的异戊二烯单元组装和改性而成。这些前体可以通过不同的方式制造。在动物和古生物中，甲戊二酸途径从乙酰辅酶A产生这些化合物，而在植物和细菌中，非甲戊二酸途径使用丙酮酸和甘油醛3-磷酸作为底物。使用这些活化的异戊二烯供体的一个重要反应是固醇的生物合成。在这里，异戊二烯单元连接在一起，制成角鲨烯，然后折叠起来，形成一组环，制成羊毛固醇。羊毛固醇随后可转化为其他固醇，如胆固醇和麦角固醇。

Nucleotides are made from amino acids, carbon dioxide and formic acid in pathways that require large amounts of metabolic energy. Consequently, most organisms have efficient systems to salvage preformed nucleotides. Purines are synthesized as nucleosides (bases attached to ribose). Both adenine and guanine are made from the precursor nucleoside inosine monophosphate, which is synthesized using atoms from the amino acids glycine, glutamine, and aspartic acid, as well as formate transferred from the coenzyme tetrahydrofolate. Pyrimidines, on the other hand, are synthesized from the base orotate, which is formed from glutamine and aspartate.
核苷酸由氨基酸、二氧化碳和甲酸在需要大量代谢能量的途径中生成。因此，大多数生物体都有有效的系统来挽救预先形成的核苷酸。嘌呤以核苷的形式合成(碱基附着在核糖上)。腺嘌呤和鸟嘌呤都是由一磷酸核苷肌苷前体合成的，它是由甘氨酸、谷氨酰胺和天冬氨酸的原子合成的，还有从辅酶四氢叶酸转移的甲酸酯。另一方面，嘧啶是由谷氨酰胺和天门冬氨酸形成的磷酸基合成的。

All organisms are constantly exposed to compounds that they cannot use as foods and would be harmful if they accumulated in cells, as they have no metabolic function. These potentially damaging compounds are called xenobiotics. Xenobiotics such as synthetic drugs, natural poisons and antibiotics are detoxified by a set of xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes. In humans, these include cytochrome P450 oxidases, UDP-glucuronosyltransferases, and glutathione S-transferases. This system of enzymes acts in three stages to firstly oxidize the xenobiotic (phase I) and then conjugate water-soluble groups onto the molecule (phase II). The modified water-soluble xenobiotic can then be pumped out of cells and in multicellular organisms may be further metabolized before being excreted (phase III). In ecology, these reactions are particularly important in microbial biodegradation of pollutants and the bioremediation of contaminated land and oil spills. Many of these microbial reactions are shared with multicellular organisms, but due to the incredible diversity of types of microbes these organisms are able to deal with a far wider range of xenobiotics than multicellular organisms, and can degrade even persistent organic pollutants such as organochloride compounds.
所有的生物都不断地接触到在它们不能用作食物的化合物中，如果它们在细胞中积累起来就会有害，因为它们没有新陈代谢功能。这些具有潜在破坏性的化合物被称为异生物质。合成药物、天然毒物和抗生素等异生物质是通过一系列异生物质代谢酶来解毒的。在人类中，这些酶包括细胞色素 P450氧化酶、UDP-葡萄糖醛酸转移酶和谷胱甘肽 s- 转移酶。这套酶系统的作用分为三个阶段，首先氧化异生物质(第一阶段) ，然后将水溶性基团共轭到分子上(第二阶段)。经过修饰的水溶性异生物质随后可以从细胞中泵出，在多细胞生物中，可以在排出之前进一步代谢(第三期)。在生态学中，这些反应在微生物对污染物的生物降解以及污染土地和溢油的生物修复中尤为重要。这些微生物反应中有许多是与多细胞生物共享的，但是由于难以置信的微生物种类多样性，这些微生物能够处理比多细胞生物更广泛的异生物质，甚至能够降解有机氯化合物等持久性有机污染物。

生命有机体必须遵守热力学定律，该定律描述了热量和功的传递。热力学第二定律指出，在任何封闭系统中，熵的量(无序)不会减少。尽管生物体惊人的复杂性似乎与这一定律相矛盾，但生命是可能它们的环境交换物质和能量的，因为所有生物体都是开放的系统。因此，生命系统不是处于平衡状态，而是耗散系统，通过引起其环境熵的较大增加来维持其高度复杂的状态。细胞的新陈代谢通过耦合分解代谢的自发过程和合成代谢的非自发过程来实现这一点。从热力学的角度来看，新陈代谢通过制造混乱来维持秩序。

As well as the evolution of new metabolic pathways, evolution can also cause the loss of metabolic functions. For example, in some parasites metabolic processes that are not essential for survival are lost and preformed amino acids, nucleotides and carbohydrates may instead be scavenged from the host. Similar reduced metabolic capabilities are seen in endosymbiotic organisms.

As the environments of most organisms are constantly changing, the reactions of metabolism must be finely regulated to maintain a constant set of conditions within cells, a condition called homeostasis. Metabolic regulation also allows organisms to respond to signals and interact actively with their environments. Two closely linked concepts are important for understanding how metabolic pathways are controlled. Firstly, the regulation of an enzyme in a pathway is how its activity is increased and decreased in response to signals. Secondly, the control exerted by this enzyme is the effect that these changes in its activity have on the overall rate of the pathway (the flux through the pathway). For example, an enzyme may show large changes in activity (i.e. it is highly regulated) but if these changes have little effect on the flux of a metabolic pathway, then this enzyme is not involved in the control of the pathway.
由于大多数生物体的环境是不断变化的，因此必须对新陈代谢的反应进行精细的调节，以维持细胞内一套恒定的条件，这种条件称为稳态。代谢调节也使生物体能够对信号作出反应，并与环境积极互动。有两个密切相关的概念对于理解代谢途径是如何被控制的很重要。首先，途径中酶的调节是指其活性如何在信号的作用下增加和减少。其次，这种酶所施加的控制是指它的活性的这些变化对通路的总体速率（通过通路的通量）的影响。例如，一种酶可能表现出很大的活性变化(即它是高度受控的)，但如果这些变化对某一代谢途径的通量影响不大，那么这种酶就不参与该途径的控制。

新陈代谢调节有多个层次。在内在调节中，代谢途径自我调节，以应对底物或产物水平的变化；例如，产物数量的减少可以增加通过该途径的通量以进行补偿。外在控制是指多细胞生物体中的一个细胞根据来自其他细胞的信号改变其代谢。这些信号通常以水溶性信使的形式出现，如激素和生长因子，并被细胞表面的特定受体检测到。然后，这些信号通过第二信使系统在细胞内传递，该系统通常涉及蛋白质的磷酸化。

一个非常好理解的外在控制的例子是通过激素胰岛素对葡萄糖代谢的调节。胰岛素是在血糖水平上升时产生的。胰岛素与细胞上的胰岛素受体结合，然后激活一连串的蛋白激酶，使细胞吸收葡萄糖，并将其转化为储存分子，如脂肪酸和糖原。糖原的新陈代谢受到分解糖原的磷酸化酶和制造糖原的糖原合成酶的活性控制。这些酶的调节方式是相互的，磷酸化抑制糖原合成酶，但激活磷酸化酶。胰岛素通过激活蛋白磷酸酶，使这些酶的磷酸化程度降低，从而引起糖原合成。

The central pathways of metabolism described above, such as glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, are present in all three domains of living things and were present in the last universal common ancestor.This universal ancestral cell was prokaryotic and probably a methanogen that had extensive amino acid, nucleotide, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.The retention of these ancient pathways during later evolution may be the result of these reactions having been an optimal solution to their particular metabolic problems, with pathways such as glycolysis and the citric acid cycle producing their end products highly efficiently and in a minimal number of steps.The first pathways of enzyme-based metabolism may have been parts of purine nucleotide metabolism, while previous metabolic pathways were a part of the ancient RNA world.
上述代谢的主要途径，如糖酵解和柠檬酸循环，存在于生物的所有三个领域中，并存在于最后的普遍共同祖先中。这种普遍的祖先细胞是原核生物，可能是一种具有广泛的氨基酸、核苷酸、碳水化合物和脂质代谢的产烷生物。在后来的进化过程中，这些古老的途径得以保留，可能是因为这些反应对它们特定的代谢问题提供了最佳解决方案，这些途径如糖酵解和三羧酸循环以最少的步骤高效地产生它们的最终产物。最初的基于酶的代谢途径可能是嘌呤核苷酸代谢的一部分，而之前的代谢途径是古代RNA世界的一部分。

Many models have been proposed to describe the mechanisms by which novel metabolic pathways evolve. These include the sequential addition of novel enzymes to a short ancestral pathway, the duplication and then divergence of entire pathways as well as the recruitment of pre-existing enzymes and their assembly into a novel reaction pathway. The relative importance of these mechanisms is unclear, but genomic studies have shown that enzymes in a pathway are likely to have a shared ancestry, suggesting that many pathways have evolved in a step-by-step fashion with novel functions created from pre-existing steps in the pathway. An alternative model comes from studies that trace the evolution of proteins' structures in metabolic networks, this has suggested that enzymes are pervasively recruited, borrowing enzymes to perform similar functions in different metabolic pathways (evident in the MANET database) These recruitment processes result in an evolutionary enzymatic mosaic. A third possibility is that some parts of metabolism might exist as "modules" that can be reused in different pathways and perform similar functions on different molecules.
有人提出了许多模型来描述新的代谢途径的演变机制。其中包括将新的酶连续添加到一个短的祖先途径，整个途径的复制和分化，以及将原有的酶补充并将其组装成一个新的反应途径。这些机制的相对重要性尚不清楚，但基因组研究表明，一条途径中的酶很可能有共同的祖先，这表明许多途径是以逐步进化的方式，从途径中预先存在的步骤中创造了新的功能。另一种模型来自于追踪代谢网络中蛋白质结构进化的研究，这表明酶在不同的代谢途径中普遍被征用，借用酶来执行相似的功能(在 MANET 数据库中显而易见)这些征用过程导致了进化酶的嵌合。第三种可能性是，新陈代谢的某些部分可能作为“模块”存在，可以在不同的途径中重复使用，并对不同的分子执行类似的功能。

除了新的代谢途径的进化，进化也会导致代谢功能的丧失。例如，在某些寄生物中，并非生存必需的代谢过程丢失了，而预先形成的氨基酸、核苷酸和碳水化合物可能会从寄主那里被清除。在内共生生物体中也可以看到类似的代谢能力下降。

传统上，新陈代谢的研究采用还原法，侧重于单一的新陈代谢途径。特别有价值的是在整个有机体、组织和细胞水平上使用放射性示踪剂，通过确定放射性标记的中间物和产品，确定从前体到最终产品的路径。然后可以纯化催化这些化学反应的酶，并研究其动力学和对抑制剂的反应。一个平行的方法是识别细胞或组织中的小分子；这些分子的完整集合被称为代谢组。总的来说，这些研究可以很好地了解简单代谢途径的结构和功能，但当应用于更复杂的系统，如一个完整细胞的代谢时，这些研究是不够的。

An idea of the complexity of the metabolic networks in cells that contain thousands of different enzymes is given by the figure showing the interactions between just 43 proteins and 40 metabolites to the right: the sequences of genomes provide lists containing anything up to 26.500 genes. However, it is now possible to use this genomic data to reconstruct complete networks of biochemical reactions and produce more holistic mathematical models that may explain and predict their behavior. These models are especially powerful when used to integrate the pathway and metabolite data obtained through classical methods with data on gene expression from proteomic and DNA microarray studies. Using these techniques, a model of human metabolism has now been produced, which will guide future drug discovery and biochemical research. These models are now used in network analysis, to classify human diseases into groups that share common proteins or metabolites.
右边的图显示了43种蛋白质和40种代谢物之间的相互作用，由此可以看出细胞中包含数千种不同酶的代谢网络的复杂性: 基因组序列提供了包含26.500个基因的列表。然而，现在有可能利用这些基因组数据来重建完整的生化反应网络，并产生更全面的数学模型来解释和预测它们的行为。这些模型在用于整合通过经典方法获得的途径和代谢物数据与蛋白质组学和DNA微阵列研究的基因表达数据时特别强大。利用这些技术，现在已经产生了一个人类代谢的模型，这将指导未来的药物发现和生化研究。这些模型现在被用于网络分析，将人类疾病划分为具有共同蛋白质或代谢物的群体。

新陈代谢的科学研究历史跨越了几个世纪，从早期研究中对整个动物的研究，到现代生物化学中对单个代谢反应的研究。 人类新陈代谢的第一个对照实验是由 圣托里奥·桑托里奥 Santorio Santorio于1614年在他的著作《静态医学》中发表的。他描述了自己在进食、睡觉、工作、性交、禁食、饮水和排泄前后的体重。他发现他摄入的大部分食物都是通过他所谓的“无知觉的汗液”流失的。

在这些早期的研究中，这些新陈代谢过程的机制还没有确定，人们认为一种生命力是生命组织的活力。19世纪，路易-巴斯德Louis Pasteur 在研究酵母菌将糖发酵成酒精时，得出结论：发酵是由酵母细胞内的物质催化的，他称之为 "发酵物"。他写道："酒精发酵是与酵母细胞的生命和组织有关的行为，而不是与细胞的死亡或腐烂有关"。这一发现连同1828年弗里德里希-沃勒Friedrich Wöhler 发表的一篇关于尿素化学合成的论文，并且因为是第一个完全由无机前体制备的有机化合物而引人注目。这证明了在细胞中发现的有机化合物和化学反应与化学的任何其他部分在原理上没有什么不同。

爱德华·布赫纳（Eduard Buchner）在20世纪初发现了酶，从而将新陈代谢的化学反应研究与细胞的生物学研究分离开来，标志着生物化学的开始。整个20世纪早期，大量的生物化学知识迅速增长。汉斯·克雷布斯（Hans Krebs）是这些现代生物化学家中最多产的一位，他对新陈代谢的研究做出了巨大的贡献。他发现了尿素循环，后来又与 汉斯·科恩伯格（Hans Kornberg）合作，发现了三羧酸循环和乙醛酸循环。色谱、x射线衍射、核磁共振光谱、放射性同位素标记、电子显微镜和分子动力学模拟等新技术的发展极大地帮助了现代生化研究。这些技术已经允许发现和详细分析细胞中的许多分子和代谢途径。
