Document Summary

10-step pathway: anaerobic, occurs in the cytosol, glucose -> 2 pyruvic acid molecules. Final products of glycolysis: 2 pyruvic acid. Converted to lactic if o2 not readily available. Enter aerobic pathways if o2 is readily available: 2 nadh + h+ (reduced nad+, net gain of 2 atp. Breakdown products of fats and proteins can also enter the cycle. Cycle intermediates may be used as building materials for anabolic reactions. The part of metabolism that directly uses oxygen. Chain of proteins bound to metal atoms (cofactors) on inner mitochondrial membrane. Substrates nadh + h+ and fadh2 deliver hydrogen atoms. Transfer of energy from nadh + h+ and fadh2 to oxygen releases large amounts of energy. This energy is released in a stepwise manner through the electron transport chain. Glycogenesis: glycogen formation when glucose supplies exceed need for atp synthesis, mostly in liver and skeletal muscle. Glycogenolysis: glycogen breakdown in response to low blood glucose.
