INTRODUCTORY BIOCHEMISTRY II
PATHWAYS OF CARBOHYDRATE
METABOLISM
GLUCOSE
• The individual reactions of glycolysis,
gluconeogenesis, and the pentose phosphate
pathway and the functional significance of each
pathway.
• The various fates of the pyruvate produced by
glycolysis; they include the fermentations that are
used by many organisms in anaerobic reactions to
produce ATP and they are exploited industriallyas
sources of ethanol, lactic acid, and other
commercially useful products.
