Definition
Glycolysis is the metabolism of converting glucose to pyruvate. |
|
|
Term
Why is Glycolysis performed? |
|
Definition
Every cell requires ATP from glycolysis, but the metabolism is especially important in cells that lack or that have low abundance of mitochondria (without which oxidative phosphorylation can take place). |

Term
What are the names of the first three enzymes used in glycolysis and the names of the intermediates formed? |
|
Definition
Reaction 1 uses Hexokinase (Glucokinase) to transfer a phosphorus to C-6 of glucose (Glucose-6-Pi). Reaction 2 (isomerization reaction) uses glucose-6-phosphate isomerase to convert glucose-6-Pi to fructose-6-Pi. Reaction 3 (2nd kinase reaction) uses phosphofructokinase 1 to transfers a phosphorus from ATP to C-1 of fructose-6-Pi to make fructose-1,6-bis-phosphate. |
