Document Summary
You should know the overall reaction including use and formation of energetic compounds (atp and nadh) Glycolysis is the sequence of reactions that metabolizes one molecule of glucose to two molecules of pyruvate with the concomitant net production of two molecules of atp. The overall reaction including the involvement of atp. You should know what substrate-level phosphorylation is and where it can be found in glycolysis. 1,3-bpg is an energy-rich molecule with a greater phosphoryl-transfer potential than atp. So 1,3-bpg can be used to power the synthesis of atp from adp. Phosphoglycerate kinase catalyzes the transfer of the phosphoryl group from the acyl phosphate of 1,3bgp to adp. Called substrate-level phosphorylation because the phosphate donor 1,3-bpg is a substrate with high phosphoyrl-transfer potential. You should know the structures of the reactants and products. You should know the names of enzymes and cofactors.
