- Glycolysis
- Glucose is activated by phosphorylation.
- The phosphate molecules come from the hydrolysis of two ATP molecules.
- This provides the energy to activate glucose
- Each glucose molecule is then split into two 3-carbon molecules known as triose phosphate.
- Hydrogen is removed from each of the triose phosphate molecules and transferred to a hydrogen carrier known as NAD. This makes NADH.
- Enzyme controlled reactions convert each triose phosphate into another 3-carbon molecule called pyruvate.
- This then results in two molecules of ATP being regenerated from ADP.
