The Chief Priests called for crucifixion of Christ because they rejected him as the “Christ” (Matt. 26:68, Lk. 22:67 & 23:2, Mk. 14:61) and they repeated this rejection at what they thought was his crucifixion and mocked him as “Christ the King of Israel” (Mk. 15:32) and as “Christ” (Lk. 23:35 & 39), never as Jesus.

It was Pilate who introduced “Jesus the Christ” (Matt. 27:17 & 22) and it was Pilate who inscribed the crosses with:
“JESUS KING OF THE JEWS” (Matt. 27:37),
“THE KING OF THE JEWS” (Mk. 15:26),
“THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS” Lk. 23:38) and
“JESUS OF NAZARETH KING OF THE JEWS” (Jn. 19:19)

1. The Christ was protected, declared innocent and set free by Pilate.

2. The name “Jesus” was the invention of Pilate and was meant for the crucifixion of two thieves, unannounced.

3. The two crosses marked "Jesus" were that of two thieves and the other was unmarked and bornby Simon.

4. Christ was not crucified.

5. All of the above

Sure!

]Jesus was crucified, but not the Christ!

Pilate made two thieves bear crosses that identified them as Jesus and they were crucified.

Christ was declared innocent by two Roman Governors, Herod and Pilate, and set free.

Jesus began at the crucifixion and was later turned into the child of the 4 Gospels to mislead you.

Christ was free and alive and was not crucified.

The Quran cannot be denied because the Bible is made to agree with the Quran that Christ was not crucified.

CHRISTIANS ARE TOO AFRAID to examine the Bible and see the Bible declare Christianity and the crucifixion a Hoax that was set up by the Roamn Governors in Jerusalem.

Check your Bible with The Age Of Reason and see the Bible reveal the Great Escape of Christ, if you are not AFRAID of the Truth.

The Children of Israel of Jerusalem on the day of the crucifixion knew nothing of a "Jesus Christ" since "Jesus" was the name that Pilate gave to the two thieves by his inscription on their crosses and was used to insult and punish the Chief Priests who called for the murder of the innocent Christ.

Read the gospels before you criticize. Jesus was crucified in all of them. Matthew 27, Mark 15, Luke 23, John 19. Jesus was given the name Jesus, the Son of the Most Highest, meaning Gods Salvation, before He was born. Luke 1. Jesus was already a king before He was born. He was announced as the Messiah, the root of Davids whose reign will never end in the old testament. Herod killed all the baby boys of Bethlehem so he would not have a king besides him. The magi gave Jesus Gold because He was a king and worshipped Him. Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey with people putting down coats and palm leaves for their king to ride over.

once you examine heavily, Jesus did not ever say the crucifixion develop into his meant technique of redeeming mankind. The Apostles were at a loss as to the thanks to act after the crucifixion, which had not in any respect been on the tables. they'd not in any respect been prepared for it and Jesus wasn't prepared for it both, yet he'd carried out his artwork as a sturdy rabbi, and spread a large number of robust recommendations, some taken from sects, others from Greek philosophy, others from issues he'd learnt in Alexandria and perchance contained in the useless Sea communities. After Jesus it wasn't a lot "how can we understand what Jesus taught" as "how can we make the disappearance of this prophet functional and tie all of it up right into a logical, new faith". Arguments about what Jesus's visual attraction and disappearance were meant to point went on for hundreds of years. In many years' time we will have the e-e book of the newly got here upon Judas' Gospel. which will positioned some cats between the pigeons. enable's desire we get the unadulterated version and not in any respect Benedict 16's version.

Why this urge to eraticate Chistianity?. Chistianity coupled with the ten commandments just helps us survive and prolong the humanity on earth. It is plain survival. By negating Christianity is like commiting suiside and which human has anything to gain, is beyond my understanding. Ten commandments says -Dont kill- so u like -kill- it also says love ur neigboor- and u say -hate ur neigboor- this is insane. Are u a human or an klingon? Well lets ask Captain Kirk, u should belong in the federation. Someone has to arrest u and sent u back to the black and volcanic klingon planet. Think again, its no fun there.

You don't have a clue what you are talking about. All the Gospels are about Jesus of Nazareth. The term Christ is a reference to His office and is equal to the Hebrew word Messiah. Your argument is mindless drivel.

None of the above.Wow can you misinterpret, Jesus was crucified.His mother Mary ,Mary Magdalen and another Mary watched.to be certain he was dead they stuck a spear in Him.
the bible gives a very full account of this.Pilate did not want to kill Jesus He did carve the plaque, however peer pressure forced him to .

The free energy change (DG) of a reaction determines its spontaneity. The free energy change (DG), and its relation to equilibrium constant, are discussed on p. 57-59 of Biochemistry 3rd Edition by Voet & Voet. A reaction is spontaneous if DG is negative (if the free energy of the products is less than the free energy of the reactants).


DG = change in free energy,
DGo' = standard free energy change (with 1 M reactants and products, at pH 7),
R = gas constant, T = absolute temperature.


Note that the standard free energy change (DGo') of a reaction may be positive, for example, and the actual free energy change (DG) negative, depending on cellular concentrations of reactants and products. Many reactions for which DGo' is positive are spontaneous because other reactions cause depletion of products or maintenance of high substrate concentrations.

At equilibrium, DG equals zero. Solving for DGo' yields the relationship at left.
K'eq, the ratio [C][D]/[A][B] at equilibrium, is called the equilibrium constant.

An equilibrium constant greater than one (more products than reactants at equilibrium) indicates a spontaneous reaction (negative DG°').


The variation of equilibrium constant with DGo' is shown in the table below.

Keq DGo' (kJ/mol) Starting with 1 M reactants and products, the reaction:

104 – 23 proceeds forward (spontaneous)
102 – 11 proceeds forward (spontaneous)
100 = 1 0 is at equilibrium
10–2 + 11 proceeds in reverse
10–4 + 23 proceeds in reverse

Energy coupling is discussed on p. 59-60 & 566-567.

A spontaneous reaction may drive a non-spontaneous reaction.
Free energy changes of coupled reactions are additive.
Examples of different types of coupling:

A. Some enzyme-catalyzed reactions are interpretable as two coupled half-reactions, one spontaneous and the other non-spontaneous. At the enzyme active site, the coupled reaction is kinetically facilitated, while the individual half-reactions are prevented. The free energy changes of the half-reactions may be summed, to yield the free energy of the coupled reaction.

For example, in the reaction catalyzed by the Glycolysis enzyme Hexokinase, the two half-reactions are:

ATP + H2O « ADP + Pi .................. DGo' = -31 kJoules/mol
Pi + glucose « glucose-6-P + H2O ... DGo' = +14 kJoules/mol
Coupled reaction: ATP + glucose « ADP + glucose-6-P .. DGo' = -17 kJoules/mol
The structure of the enzyme active site, from which water is excluded, prevents the individual hydrolytic reactions, while favoring the coupled reaction.

B. Two separate enzyme-catalyzed reactions occurring in the same cellular compartment, one spontaneous and the other non-spontaneous, may be coupled by a common intermediate (reactant or product).

A hypothetical, but typical, example involving pyrophosphate:

enzyme 1: A + ATP « B + AMP + PPi ....DGo' = +15 kJ/mol
enzyme 2: PPi + H2O « 2 Pi ....................DGo' = –33 kJ/mol
Overall: A + ATP + H2O « B + AMP + 2Pi ... DGo' = –18 kJ/mol

Pyrophosphate (PPi) is often the product of a reaction that needs a driving force. Its spontaneous hydrolysis, catalyzed by Pyrophosphatase enzyme, drives the reaction for which PPi is a product. For an example of such a reaction, see the discussion of cAMP formation below.

C. Ion transport may be coupled to a chemical reaction, e.g., hydrolysis or synthesis of ATP.
In the diagram at right and below, water is not shown. It should be recalled that the ATP hydrolysis/synthesis reaction is ATP + H2O « ADP + Pi.

Equivalent to equation 20-3 on p. 727, the free energy change (electrochemical potential difference) associated with transport of an ion S across a membrane from side 1 to side 2 is represented below.


R = gas constant, T = temperature, Z = charge on the ion, F = Faraday constant, and DY = voltage across the membrane.


Since free energy changes are additive, the spontaneous direction for the coupled reaction will depend on the relative magnitudes of:

DG for the ion flux (DG varies with the ion gradient and voltage.)
DG for the chemical reaction (DGo' is negative in the direction of ATP hydrolysis. The magnitude of DG depends also on concentrations of ATP, ADP, and Pi .)
Two examples of such coupling are:
1. Active transport. Spontaneous ATP hydrolysis (negative DG) is coupled to (drives) ion flux against a gradient (positive DG). For an example, see the discussion of SERCA.

2. ATP synthesis in mitochondria. Spontaneous H+ flux across a membrane (negative DG) is coupled to (drives) ATP synthesis (positive DG). See the discussion of the ATP Synthase.

"High Energy" Bonds

The structure of ATP is shown below at right (see also p. 566). Anhydride bonds (in red) link the terminal phosphates.

Phosphoanhydride bonds (formed by splitting out water between two phosphoric acids or between a carboxylic acid and a phosphoric acid) tend to have a large negative DG of hydrolysis, and are thus said to be "high energy" bonds. It is important to realize that the bond energy is not necessarily high, just the free energy of hydrolysis.

"High energy" bonds are often represented by the "~" symbol (squiggle), with ~P representing a phosphate group with a high free energy of hydrolysis.

Compounds with "high energy" bonds are said to have high group transfer potential. For example, Pi may be spontaneously removed from ATP for transfer to another compound (e.g., to a hydroxyl group on glucose).

Potentially two "high energy" bonds can be cleaved, as two phosphates are released by hydrolysis from ATP (adenosine triphosphate), yielding ADP (adenosine diphosphate), and ultimately AMP (adenosine monophosphate). This may be represented as follows (omitting waters of hydrolysis):

AMP~P~P ® AMP~P + Pi (ATP ® ADP + Pi)
AMP~P ® AMP + Pi (ADP ® AMP + Pi)
Alternatively, as discussed above:

AMP~P~P ® AMP + P~Pi (ATP ® AMP + PPi)
P~P ® 2 Pi
ATP often serves as an energy source. Hydrolytic cleavage of one or both of the "high energy" bonds of ATP is coupled to an energy-requiring (non-spontaneous) reaction, as in the examples presented above.

AMP functions as an energy sensor and regulator of metabolism. When ATP production does not keep up with needs, a higher portion of a cell's adenine nucleotide pool is in the form of AMP. AMP then stimulates metabolic pathways that produce ATP.

Some examples of this role involve direct allosteric activation of pathway enzymes by AMP. (E.g., activation of the Glycogen Phosphorylase enzyme by AMP will be discussed later.)
Some regulatory effects of AMP are mediated by the enzyme AMP-Activated Protein Kinase. (For example the role of AMP-Activated Protein Kinase in stimulation of fatty acid catabolism by AMP will be discussed later.)
Artificial ATP analogs have been designed that are resistant to cleavage of the terminal phosphate by hydrolysis, e.g., AMPPNP, depicted at right.
Such analogs have been used to study the dependence of coupled reactions on ATP hydrolysis. In addition, they have made it possible to crystallize an enzyme that catalyzes ATP hydrolysis with an ATP analog at the active site.


A reaction that is important for equilibrating ~P among adenine nucleotides within a cell is that catalyzed by Adenylate Kinase:

ATP + AMP « 2 ADP

The Adenylate Kinase reaction is also important because the substrate for ATP synthesis, e.g., by the mitochondrial ATP Synthase, is ADP, while some cellular reactions dephosphorylate ATP all the way to AMP.

The enzyme Nucleoside Diphosphate Kinase (NuDiKi) equilibrates ~P among the various nucleotides that are needed, e.g., for synthesis of DNA and RNA. NuDiKi catalyzes reversible reactions such as:

ATP + GDP « ADP + GTP , ATP + UDP « ADP + UTP , etc.

Many organisms store energy as inorganic polyphosphate, a chain of many phosphate residues linked by phosphoanhydride bonds. It may be represented as: P~P~P~P~P... Hydrolysis of Pi residues from polyphosphate may be coupled to energy-dependent reactions. Depending on the organism or cell type, inorganic polyphosphate may have additional functions. For example, it may serve as a reservoir for Pi, a chelator of metal ions, a buffer, or a regulator.

Why do phosphoanhydride linkages have a high free energy of hydrolysis? Contributing factors for ATP and PPi are thought to include:

Resonance stabilization of the products of hydrolysis exceeds resonance stabilization of the compound itself. See Fig. 16-22 p. 568.
Electrostatic repulsion between negatively charged phosphate oxygens favors separation of the phosphates.
Phosphocreatine (also called creatine phosphate), another compound with a "high energy" phosphate linkage, is used in nerve and muscle cells for storage of ~P bonds.
Creatine Kinase catalyzes:

phosphocreatine + ADP « ATP + creatine

This is a reversible reaction, though the equilibrium constant slightly favors phosphocreatine formation. Phosphocreatine is produced when ATP levels are high. When ATP is depleted during exercise in muscle, phosphate is transferred from phosphocreatine to ADP, to replenish ATP.

Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP), involved in production of ATP in Glycolysis, has a larger negative DG of phosphate hydrolysis than ATP.
Removal of phosphate from the ester linkage in PEP is spontaneous because the enol product spontaneously converts to a ketone.



The ester linkage in PEP is an exception. Generally phosphate esters, formed by splitting out water between a phosphoric acid and a hydroxyl group, have a low but negative DG of hydrolysis. Examples, shown below, include:

the linkage between the first phosphate and the ribose hydroxyl of ATP.
the linkage between phosphate and a hydroxyl group in glucose-6-phosphate or glycerol-3-phosphate.
the linkage between phosphate and the hydroxyl group of an amino acid residue in a protein (serine, threonine or tyrosine). Regulation of proteins by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation will be discussed later. An example mentioned above is AMP-Activated Protein Kinase.





ATP has special roles in energy coupling and phosphate transfer. The free energy of hydrolysis of phosphate from ATP is intermediate among the examples listed in the table below (more complete table p. 566). ATP can thus act as a phosphate donor, and ATP can be synthesized by transfer of phosphate from other compounds, such as phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP).

Compound DGo' of phosphate hydrolysis (kJ/mol)

Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) - 61.9
Phosphocreatine - 43.1
Pyrophosphate - 33.5
ATP (to ADP) - 30.5
Glucose-6-phosphate - 13.8
Glycerol-3-phosphate - 9.2

Some other "high energy" bonds:
A thioester forms between a carboxylic acid and a thiol (SH) group, e.g., the thiol of coenzyme A (abbreviated CoA-SH).

Thioesters are "high energy" linkages. In contrast to phosphate esters, thioesters have a large negative DG of hydrolysis.

The thiol of coenzyme A can react with a carboxyl group of acetic acid (yielding acetyl-CoA) or a fatty acid (yielding fatty acyl-CoA).
The spontaneity of thioester cleavage is essential to the role of coenzyme A as an acyl group carrier. Like ATP, acyl-coenzyme A has a high group transfer potential.

Coenzyme A includes b-mercaptoethylamine, in amide linkage to the carboxyl group of the B vitamin pantothenate.
The hydroxyl of pantothenate is in ester linkage to a phosphate of ADP-3'-phosphate.

The functional group is the thiol (SH) of b-mercaptoethylamine.

3',5'-Cyclic AMP (abbreviated cAMP), shown at right and below, is used by cells as a transient signal.
Adenylate Cyclase (Adenylyl Cyclase) catalyzes cAMP synthesis:
ATP ® cAMP + PPi.
The reaction is highly spontaneous due to the production of PPi, which spontaneously hydrolyzes.

Phosphodiesterase catalyzes catalyzes hydrolytic cleavage of one of the phosphate ester linkages (in red), converting cAMP ® 5'-AMP. This is a highly spontaneous reaction, because cAMP is sterically constrained by having a phosphate with ester linkages to two hydroxyls of the same ribose. The lability of cAMP to hydrolysis makes it an excellent transient signal. Signal roles of cAMP will be discussed separately.

Distinction between thermodynamics and kinetics: A high activation energy barrier usually causes hydrolysis of a "high energy bond" to be very slow in the absence of an enzyme catalyst. This "kinetic stability" is essential to the role of ATP and other compounds with ~ bonds. If ATP would rapidly hydrolyze in the absence of a catalyst, it could not serve its important roles in energy metabolism and phosphate transfer. Phosphate is removed from ATP only when the reaction is coupled via enzyme catalysis to some other reaction useful to the cell, such as transport of an ion, phosphorylation of glucose, or regulation of an enzyme by phosphorylation of a serine residue.

Problems relating to bioenergetics are on the page with potential test questions.

Oxidation & reduction will be covered later. A brief introduction to selected topics will be presented here.

Oxidation of an iron atom involves loss of an electron (to some acceptor atom):

Fe++ (reduced) ® Fe+++ (oxidized) + e-

For a carbon compound, increased oxidation means increased number of C-O bonds. Since electrons in a C-O bond are associated more with the oxygen, the C becomes relatively electron deficient as you go from hydrocarbon to CO2.


Oxidation of carbon is a spontaneous (energy yielding) reaction.

NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) functions as an electron acceptor in catabolic pathways.
The nicotinamide ring of NAD+, which is derived from the vitamin niacin, accepts 2 e- and one H+ (a hydride) in going to the reduced state, as NAD+ becomes NADH. See also p. 461 & 555.

NADP+/NADPH is similar, except for an additional phosphate esterified to a hydroxyl group on the adenosine ribose. NADPH functions as an electron donor in synthetic pathways.

The electron transfer reaction may be summarized as:
NAD+ + 2 e- + H+ « NADH

It may also be written as:
NAD+ + 2 e- + 2H+ « NADH + H+
