Document Summary
Coa where the breakdown of glucose to carbon dioxide is competedpyruvate is completely broken down to. And this mode of atp synthesis occurs when an enzyme transfers a phosphate group from a substate molecule to adp, rather than adding an inorganic phosphate to. Glycolysis harvests chemical energy by oxidizing glucose to pyruvate (9. 2- page 168: introduction, glycosis is the sugar splitting and can be divided into two phases: energy investment and energy payoffin the cytoplasm and done with. Oxygen: glycolysis, energy investment phase, hexokinase transfers a phosphate group from atp to glucose, making it more chemically reactive. This is a key step for regulation of glycosis: aldolase cleaves the sugar molecule into two different three-carbon sugars (isomers, isomerase catalyzes the reversible conversion between the two isomers. This reaction never reaches equilibrium: glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is used as the substrate of the next reaction (step 6) as fast as it forms: energy payoff phase, this enzyme catalyzes two sequential reactions.
