In the first step of this
In the first step of this process, hexokinase catalyzes the production of G6P; later, NAD+ ["N A D plus"] is reduced to NADH. This process takes place in the cytosol, and does not require oxygen. Two ATP are needed in order to start the (*) investment phase while, 4 ATP are produced in the payoff phase. The Krebs cycle is often preceded by, for 10 points, what process that creates pyruvate by splitting glucose?
