Document Summary

Glycolysis - occurs in cytoplasm; major site of oxidation. Getting energy from sugar or oxidizing carbon - similar to burning it. 1 glucose molecule energy investment (2 atp) cleavage of 6-carbon sugar to 2 3-carbon sugars energy payoff (4 atp + 2 nadh) 2 pyruvate molecules. Hexokinase - using a nucleotide and transferring a phosphate. Phosphate is transferred from atp to glucose. Step 1 - phosphorylation of glucose (transferase) Attach phosphate to hydroxyl group on carbon that"s outside of ring. Large negative delta g - energy being released by atp (spontaneous) Phosphorylation marks glucose to being broken down. Prevents glucose from passing through cell membrane - negatively charged (cannot leave cell) Phosphate group activates the molecule for later reactions - some of the energy from the atp has been transferred to glucose. Many enzymes can bind to phosphate easily. Enzyme: phosphohexose isomerase (6 carbon sugar that is phosphorylated is rearranged) Fructose 6-phosphate has smaller ring - 2 carbons outside ring.
