1

Sources of glucose for glycolysis

  • Starch
  • Glycogen
  • Sucrose
  • Lactose

2

Which enzyme acts upon both starch and glycogen?

α-amylase

3

Step 1

  • Phosphorylation of glucose into glucose 6-phosphate
  • Glucose + ATP → (Hexokinase) → Glucose 6-phosphate + ADP + H+

4

G-6P

Glucose 6-phosphate

5

Step 2

  • Isomerization of glucose 6-phosphate into fructose 6-phosphate
  • Glucose 6-phosphate → (Phosphoglucose isomerase) → Fructose 6-phosphate

6

F-6P

Fructose 6-phosphate

7

Step 3

  • Phosphorylation of fructose 6-phosphate into fructose 1,6-bisphosphate
  • Fructose 6-phosphate + ATP → (Phosphofructokinase) → Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate + ADP + H+

8

F-1, 6-BP

Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate

9

PFK

Phosphofructokinase

10

Step 4

  • Cleavage of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate
  • Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate → (Aldolase) → Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone

11

GAP

Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate

12

DHAP

Dihydroxyacetone phosphate
