Fermentation
A method of regenerating NAD+ from NADH while reducing pyruvate to lactate or ethanol
How many ATP in total from one glucose
36 to 38
Four steps of cellular metabolism
- Glycolysis
- Pyruvate decarboxylate
- Citric acid cycle
- Electron transport chain
Net of pyruvate decarboxylate
2 NADH
Pyruvate to acetyl coA takes place in the
Mitochondrial matrix
TCA cycle happens in the
Mitochondrial matrix
Electron transport chain happens in the
Inner mitochondrial matrix
Pathway of fat into oxidative phosphorylation
Fat to glycerol to PGAL
Path of glucose into metabolism
Glucose to sugar to glycogen to glucose 6 phosphate
Path of fatty acids to metabolism
Fatty acids go through beta oxidation and become alpha keto acids which become acetyl coA
