This document outlines the energy investment phase of glucose breakdown. Glucose is converted to glucose-6-phosphate by hexokinase using ATP as energy. Glucose-6-phosphate then undergoes isomerization to form fructose-6-phosphate and fructose-1,6-bisphosphate through a series of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation reactions utilizing ATP as energy. This prepares the glucose for further breakdown in later metabolic phases.
