In the fifth step of this process, one of the molecules created by aldolase is converted to the other, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.
This process occurs at a much higher rate in cancer cells, which is known as the Warburg effect. In the fifth step of this process, one of the molecules created by aldolase is converted to the other, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. This process is often regulated at its rate-determining step, which is catalyzed by phosphofructokinase. The last five of the ten steps of this process occur twice for every input. (*) Gluconeogenesis is chemically the reverse of this process. The product of this reaction is converted to acetyl-CoA and then used in the Krebs Cycle. This reaction takes glucose and produces two molecules each of ATP, NADH and pyruvate. For 10 points, name this first step of cellular respiration.
