Study Notes
Glycolysis
- Glucose is converted into Glucose-6-Phosphate using one ATP molecule
- Glucose-6-Phosphate is converted into Fructose-6-Phosphate by Phosphoglucose isomerase
- Fructose-6-Phosphate is converted into Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphate using one ATP molecule by Phosphofructokinase
- Regulation occurs at Phosphofructokinase, which is activated by AMP and inhibited by ATP
- Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphate is split into Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate (GA3P) and Dihydroxyacetone (DHAP)
- GA3P is converted into 1,3-Biphosphoglycerate, which produces one ATP and one NADH
- DHAP is converted into Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate (GA3P) by Triose phosphate isomerase
- GA3P is converted into 1,3-Biphosphoglycerate, which produces one ATP and one NADH
- 1,3-Biphosphoglycerate is converted into 3-Phosphoglycerate, producing one ATP
- 3-Phosphoglycerate is converted into 2-Phosphoglycerate
- 2-Phosphoglycerate is converted into Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) and Water
- PEP is converted into Pyruvate by Pyruvate kinase, producing one ATP
- Overall, one glucose molecule produces 2 pyruvate, 2 H+, 2 NADH, and 2 H2O
Regulation of Glycolysis
- Regulation occurs at Phosphofructokinase, which is activated by AMP and inhibited by ATP
- Regulation also occurs at Pyruvate kinase, which is inhibited by ATP and activated by Fructose 1,6-Bisphosphate
- Fructose 2,6-Bisphosphate stimulates Phosphofructokinase and decreases the concentration of Fructose 6-Phosphate, reducing inhibition by ATP
- Glucagon promotes phosphorylation of Pyruvate kinase and inhibits it when glucose is low, preventing pyruvate production when glucose is low
