Glycolysis

  • When phosphocreatine levels are low ATP must be produced
  • GLUT4 transports glucose into the cytoplasm where glycolysis occurs
  • Glucose is converted to 2 pyruvate molecules and there is a NET gain of two ATP and two NADH molecules

Regulating Glycolysis

  • There are three steps that are regulated in glycolysis
  • All have a large free energy change
  • Also glucose availability
  • Allosteric regulation: regulation through binging of an effector molecule to a site other than the active site
Step 1: Hexokinase
Inhibited by high product concentration





Step 3: PFK-1
Inhibited by large amount of ATP
Activated by large amounts of AMP and product





Step 10: Pyruvate kinase
Inhibited through phosphorylation
Inhibited by ATP, alanine, and acetyl-CoA
Activated by AMP and fructose-1,6-bisphosphate

Which step for glycolysis does triose phosphate isomerase perform?

a. Step 1: the conversion of glucose to G6P
b. Step 2: the conversion of G6P to F6P
c. Step 8: the conversion of 3-phosphoglycerate to 2-phosphoglycerate
d. Step 5: the conversion of dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate

d. dihydroxyacetone phosphate is a triose phosphate and it is rearranged (isomerase) to glyceraldyhyde 3-phaosphate
