Glycolosis

The primary objective of glycolysis is to produce pyruvate so that the proceeding process called the Link Reaction may occur. Glycolysis produces a small and very limited amount of ATP without oxygen; hence the name anaerobic reaction. Without oxygen, the Link Reaction cannot occur; if the link reaction cannot occur, the produced pyruvate is converted into other, more easily accessible substances. Humans convert pyruvate to Lactic Acid, while yeast converts the pyruvate to Ethanol.

  • ooh this is pretty good. i felt like all the molecules were like ninjas

  • Wow that was actually quite enlightening.

see all

  • you were lazy, you skipped a step, but good job it helped

  • Boringggggggggg

    

  • u missed the step where dihydroxyacetone phosphate isomerizes to form another G3P after the fructose 1, 6- biphosphate split up.

  • missed alot

  • @chibichichio The process of glycolysis leads to the production of 4ATP + 2 NADH and 2 Pyruvate, but the glycolysis reaction itself costs 2 ATPs to perform. (The two are lost by converting glucose to glucose-6-phosphate and converting fructose-6-phosphate to fructose 1,6 biphosphate. These are the steps that create G3P). So the overall gain is 2 ATP +2NADH +2 Pyruvates per glucose molecule.

  • this is good, except for that NOISE at 1: 16 ish sorry for being touchy but im CRAMMING and that NOISE bit is NOT helping this situation!!!

  • i got a 100 on this test in like january and im screwed for the final tomorrow.... thank you so much.

  • i got a 100 on this test in like january and im screwed for the final tomorrow....

  • Hm...I thought the 10 steps of glycloysis lead to 2ATP+2NAD+2pyruvate...
