    d -Glucose + 2 [NAD] + + 2 [ADP] + 2 [P] i 2 × Pyruvate 2 × + 2 [NADH] + 2 H + + 2 [ATP] + 2 H 2 O Glycolysis pathway overview The use of symbols in this equation makes it appear unbalanced with respect to oxygen atoms, hydrogen atoms, and charges. Atom balance is maintained by the two phosphate (P i) groups: Each exists in the form of a hydrogen phosphate anion, dissociating to contribute ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Glycolysis_summary

    "The metabolic pathway of glycolysis converts glucose to pyruvate via a series of intermediate metabolites. Each chemical modification (red box) is performed by a different enzyme. Steps 1 and 3 consume ATP (blue) and steps 7 and 10 produce ATP (yellow). Since steps 6-10 occur twice per glucose molecule, this leads to a net production of energy."

  4. Glucose-1,6-bisphosphate synthase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose-1,6-bisphosphate...

    The glucose-1,6-bisphosphate increase the activity of glycolysis, of which glucose-6-phosphate is a reagent. In addition, one of the reactants (1,3-bisphosphoglycerate) and one of the products (3-phosphoglycerate) are intermediates in the 'payoff' phase of glycolysis. In other words, two molecules involved with glucose-1,6-bisphosphate synthase ...

  5. Phosphofructokinase 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphofructokinase_1

    Phosphofructokinase-1 (PFK-1) is one of the most important regulatory enzymes (EC 2.7.1.11) of glycolysis. It is an allosteric enzyme made of 4 subunits and controlled by many activators and inhibitors. PFK-1 catalyzes the important "committed" step of glycolysis, the conversion of fructose 6-phosphate and ATP to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate and ...

  6. Phosphorylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorylation

    Phosphorylation initiates the reaction in step 1 of the preparatory step [5] (first half of glycolysis), and initiates step 6 of payoff phase (second phase of glycolysis). [ 6 ] Glucose, by nature, is a small molecule with the ability to diffuse in and out of the cell.

  7. 2-Deoxy-D-glucose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Deoxy-D-glucose

    2-DG has been used as a targeted optical imaging agent for fluorescent in vivo imaging. [12] [13] In clinical medical imaging (PET scanning), fluorodeoxyglucose is used, where one of the 2-hydrogens of 2-deoxy-D-glucose is replaced with the positron-emitting isotope fluorine-18, which emits paired gamma rays, allowing distribution of the tracer to be imaged by external gamma camera(s).

    Note that step 2 has almost proportional control over while steps 1 and 3 show greater than proportional control over . The following branch pathway model (in antimony format) illustrates the case J 1 {\displaystyle J_{1}} and J 3 {\displaystyle J_{3}} have very high flux control and step J2 has proportional control.

  9. Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphoenolpyruvate...

    PEPCK-C catalyzes an irreversible step of gluconeogenesis, the process whereby glucose is synthesized.The enzyme has therefore been thought to be essential in glucose homeostasis, as evidenced by laboratory mice that contracted diabetes mellitus type 2 as a result of the overexpression of PEPCK-C.
