Document Summary

Cellular respiration (cid:120) (cid:120) (cid:120) (cid:120) (cid:120) (cid:120) (cid:120) (cid:120) (cid:120) Then, glucose-6-phosphate is rearranged into fructose-6-phosphate, since glucose and. This glucose molecule is phosphorylated when atp drops off a phosphate group. Glycolysis starts with the molecule glucose. it become glucose-6-phosphate (the phosphate group is on carbon 6). fructose are isomers. Fructose-6-phosphate is phosphorylated when atp drops off a phosphate group. The phosphate group is added to help this molecule split in the next step. Next, lysis or splitting occurs of the fructose 1,6-diphosphate into two isomers: dihydroxyacetone phosphate (dhap) and phospho-glyceraldehyde (pgal). Then, the enzyme isomerase rearranges dihydroxyacetone phosphate (dhap) into phospho-glyceraldehyde (pgal). For each of the two phospho-glyceraldehyde (pgal) molecules, oxidation occurs and two hydrogen atoms and two electrons change nad+ into nadh2. An inorganic phosphate group (pi) is also added using the energy released from oxidation. Hence, the two phospho- glyceraldehyde (pgal) molecules are changed into 1,3-diphosphoglycerate (dpga) molecules.
