Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that converts glucose (C6H12O6) into pyruvate and, in most organisms, occurs in the liquid part of cells (the cytosol). The free energy released in this process is used to form the high-energy molecules adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). [1] .

2021年3月23日 · Glycolysis is a metabolic process at the start of the chain of reactions within the process of cellular respiration – production of cellular energy. It occurs in the presence or absence of oxygen to enable aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration.

2023年8月8日 · Glycolysis ultimately splits glucose into two pyruvate molecules. One can think of glycolysis as having two phases that occur in the cytosol of cells. The first phase is the "investment" phase due to its usage of two ATP molecules, and the second is the "payoff" phase.

2025年1月15日 · Understanding glycolysis is essential for comprehending how cells harness energy from nutrients to sustain functions. This article will explore the intricacies of glycolysis, examining its key intermediates and their significance in the metabolic landscape.

2024年12月15日 · Glycolysis is a critical metabolic pathway that generates ATP without the need for oxygen. This pathway operates in the cytosol, and its primary function is to break down glucose and produce energy. The process can be broken down into two phases: the ATP investment phase and the ATP payoff phase.

2023年10月4日 · Glycolysis is the first and common step for aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration. ‘Glyco’ stands for ‘glucose’, and ‘lysis’ means ‘splitting’. So, it can be defined as a metabolic process where a glucose molecule gets broken …

Glycolysis is the process in which glucose is broken down to produce energy. It produces two molecules of pyruvate, ATP, NADH and water. The process takes place in the cytoplasm of a cell and does not require oxygen. It occurs in both aerobic and anaerobic organisms.

Glycolysis is an ancient pathway that evolved well before oxygen was present in the Earth's atmosphere and is highly conserved among living organisms. Glycolysis was the first metabolic pathway elucidated and is also referred to as the Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas pathway (see Box 1).

2024年4月8日 · Glycolysis is the process by which one molecule of glucose is converted into two molecules of pyruvate, two hydrogen ions and two molecules of water. Through this process, the 'high energy' intermediate molecules of ATP and NADH are synthesised.

2025年1月31日 · Glycolysis, sequence of 10 chemical reactions taking place in most cells that breaks down glucose, releasing energy that is then captured and stored in ATP. One molecule of glucose (plus coenzymes and inorganic phosphate) makes two molecules of pyruvate (or pyruvic acid) and two molecules of ATP.
