- The link reaction
- The pyruvate produced in glycolysis is oxidised by removing hydrogen.
- This hydrogen is accepted by NAD to form NADH, which is later used to produce ATP.
- The 2-carbon molecule, called an acetyl group, that is formed combines with coenzyme A to produce acetyl coenzyme A.
- A carbon dioxide molecule is created from each molecule of pyruvate.
- The pyruvate produced in glycolysis is oxidised by removing hydrogen.
