ATP production
- Aerobic metabolism of glucose
- 32 net ATP via Malate-aspartate shuttle
- 30 net ATP via glycerol 3 phosphate shuttle
- Anaerobic glycolysis produces only 2 net ATP per glucose molecule
- ATP hydrolysisi can be coupled to energetically unfavorable reactions
- Arsenic causes glycolysis to produce net 0 ATP
