This molecule is transported against a sodium gradient by the first cotransporter ever discovered. It reacts with hemoglobin to form HbA1c, and it is phosphorylated twice before it is cleaved by aldolase in a certain catabolic pathway to form DHAP and G3P. That pathway converts this molecule to pyruvate, with a net yield of 2 ATP. This molecule with formula C6H12O6 polymerizes in the liver to form glycogen. For 10 points,
