One variation of this process is known as the Leloir pathway. It ends with the transfer of a phosphate group from PEP. Earlier in this process, dihydroxyacetone phosphate is converted to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate. This pathway, which usually begins with the (*) phosphorylation of the starting material by the enzyme hexokinase, occurs in the cytosol. It is also known as the Embden- Meyerhof pathway, and it yields a net total of two ATP molecules. For 10 points, name this series of anaerobic reactions in which glucose is split into two molecules of pyruvate.
