Document Summary

In the cytoplasm glucose is oxidized to pyruvate. Atp is hydrolyzed to adp and inorganic phosphate, releasing approximately -7. 3. Atp (adenosine triphosphate) - energy currency of the cell kcal/mol of energy (= -7. 3) Creatine phosphate - high energy phosphagen store in vertebrates. Arginine phosphate - high energy phosphagen store in invertebrates. The high energy phosphagen store is used to regenerate atp. Catabolic processes produce atp and reducing power. Anabolic processes require atp and reducing power. Metabolism converts molecules in small steps, each catalyzed by a specific enzyme. of oxygen, there are two pathways for the further metabolism of pyruvate: In the absence of inadequate oxygen, glucose is fermented in the cytoplasm to lactic acid (animals) or ethanol (plants and yeast [and sometimes in animals, e. g. , cold-adapted goldfish]). Fermentation to lactate and ethanol regenerates nad so that glycolysis can continue. when glycogen is the starting material. ) (in mitochondria), being converted to acetyl coa and co2.
