Glycolysis is the oxidation of glucose. Pyruvate is the end product.
Provides ATP. NADH is also produced.
In aerobic organisms, glycolysis yields precursors to the Krebs Cycle & Electron Transport System
What are the 3 purposes of Glycoysis?
In the cytosol
Where does glycolysis take place?
Bring glucose into the cell
Change glucose into an "energy rich sugar"
What are the 2 functions of the first half of glycolysis?
Adds a phosphate group
How does the first half of glycolysis "trap" glucose in the cell?
Glycolysis is what kind of pathway
catabolism
1 Glucose leads to how many pyruvate
2
What are the products of glycolysis
2 pyruvate, 2 atp , 2 NADH
How many intermediates are bisphosphorylated
2
What is the first high energy forming reaction catalyzed by?
glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate (inorganic P added to NAD+-->NADH)
how is a mutase different from an isomerase
the mutase moves the phosphate group to different carbon position
What are pyruvates 2 fates
lactate dehydrogenation and alcohol dehydrogenation
Where is NAD+ regenerated?
lactate fermentation of the skeletal muscle ( through contraction) and Electron Transport Chain
Where is another location for NAD+ regeneration that is less beneficial for human cells?
yeast through alcohol dehydrogenation (through metabolism) and Electron Transport Chain
