In this process, the reversible lysis of a biphosphate pentose yields dihydroxyacetone phosphate and the glyceraldehyde derivative PGAL, with which it rapidly interconverts.
In this process, the reversible lysis of a biphosphate pentose yields dihydroxyacetone phosphate and the glyceraldehyde derivative PGAL, with which it rapidly interconverts. Its second step is an isomerization yielding F6P, which then undergoes rate-limiting phosphate addition by phosphofructokinase. The product of the first step of this process is a precursor to glycogen, and its final three-carbon product can be fermented into lactate or decarboxylated to form acetyl-CoA. The products of this process are consumed by the Krebs cycle. For 10 points, name this metabolic pathway which converts glucose into pyruvate, yielding a net gain of two ATP molecules.
