Glycolysis Flashcards
What can happen to Pyruvate
Fermented to ethanol or lactate
Where does glycolysis take place
Cytoplasm
How is energy produced from ATP
Broken down to ADP or AMP
Breaking bonds releases energy
What are key enzymes I. Glycolysis
Hexokinase
Phosphofructokinase
Pyruvate kinase
Pyruvate dehydrogenase
Hexokinase
What inhibits
Helps rate at which carbons are reduced
Inhibited by
G-6-P
Phosphofructokinase
Inhibited
Stimulates
ATP
Low ph
High citrate (krebs)
Low glucose
fructose-2,6-biphosphate
AMP
High glucose
Pyruvate kinase
What regulates
Glucagon
Insulin
Pyruvate dehydrogenase
Not part of glycolysis but regulate Pyruvate to
CoA
What does NADH do to glycolysis
Inhibits
What are 2 fates of Pyruvate
Aerobic respiration
Anaerobic
Aerobic fate of Pyruvate
Goes to mitochondria
Oxidised and decarboxylated
By
Pyruvate dehydrogenase
Anaerobic respiration fate of Pyruvate
Converted to lactate
By lactate dehydrogenase
What other reaction does Lactate dehydrogenase carry out
Convert NADH to NAD
What are the check point
Hexokinase
Phospofructokinase
Pyruvate kinase
What is start and end products
Glucose
Pyruvate
2 ATP
