Polysaccharide (Glycogen)
- Glycogen
- Regulation of Glycolysis
- Glucose
- Hexokinase enzyme present
- G-6-P (Glucose-6-phosphate)
- Isomerization-Catalysed by Phosphohexose Isomerase
- F-6-P (Fructose-6-phosphate)
- Fructose -1,6-bisphosphate
- Enzyme PFK-1 present Firts Committed step
- ATP+Water -->>ADP + Pi - Exergonic
Glucose + Pi ---> Glucose-6-Phosphate - Endergonic
ATP + Glucose ---> Glucose-6-Phosphate + ADP + Pi- Coupling reaction is Exergonic
- Glucose is first phosphorylated at the hydroxyl group on C-6
- The D-glucose 6-phosphate
thus formed is converted to D-fructose 6-phosphate by isomerism
- Inhibited by High levels of G-6-P by allosteric regulation
- The C-1 aldehyde group of glucose-6-phosphate is reduced
to a hydroxyl group, and the C-2 hydroxyl group is oxidized to give the ketone group of fructose-6-phosphat
- D-fructose 6-phosphate which is again phosphorylated, this
time at C-1, to yield D-fructose 1,6-bisphosphate
- Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is split to yield two three-carbon molecules, dihydroxyacetone
phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (step 4 ); this is the “lysis” step that gives the pathway its
name. The dihydroxyacetone phosphate is isomerized to a second molecule of glyceraldehyde 3-
phosphate (step 5 ), ending the first phase of glycolysis.
- 3-phosphoglycerate rearranges to form 2-phosphoglycerate by the enzyme phosphoglycerate mutase.
Dehydration activates the phosphoryl for transfer to ADP

Aerobic Conditions - Oxygen Present
- Cellular Respiration
- Hypoxic/Anaerobic Conditions-No Oxygen Present
- Phosphoenolpyruvate is converted to pyruvate by pyruvate kinase. This step involves the transfer of a phosphate molecule to ADP to form 1 molecule of ATP
- 2 x GA3P
- 2x 1,3-BPG ( 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate)
- 2x 3-PG (3-Phosphoglycerate)
- 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate is converted to 3-phosphoglycerate by phosphoglycerate kinase. This step involves the transfer of a phosphate molecule to ADP to form 1 molecule of ATP.
- 3-phosphoglycerate rearranges to form 2-phosphoglycerate by the enzyme phosphoglycerate mutase.

2x Ethanol + 2x Carbon Dioxide
- Fermentation to ethanol in yeast
- 2x Pyruvate
- Enters Transition Stage
- Causes pH to Decrease
-
2x Lactate
- The second route for pyruvate is its reduction to lactate via lactic acid fermentation. When
vigorously contracting skeletal muscle must function under low-oxygen conditions (hypoxia), NADH
cannot be reoxidized to NAD+
, but NAD+
is required as an electron acceptor for the further oxidation
of pyruvate. Under these conditions pyruvate is reduced to lactate, accepting electrons from NADH
and thereby regenerating the NAD+ necessary for glycolysis to continue
