Fourth Step- Breaking of Fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate.

Fourth Step- Breaking of Fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate.

Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, being highly active, breaks down into two three-carbon compounds, namely dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) and phosphoglyceraldehyde (G3P) under the activity of enzyme aldolase.

Second Step - Isomerization Of Glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P)

Second Step - Isomerization Of Glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P)

Once glucose is converted into glucose 6-phosphate, it is then isomerized into fructose 6-phosphate. The basic reason behind this conversion is that the addition of one more phosphate into glucose is not possible, due to its cyclic structure. Where only one carbon atom is present outside of the r...

10. Formation of PYRUVATE

The phosphoenolpyruvate obtained is now under the activity of enzyme pyruvatekinase and is converted into pyruvic acid along with the formation of an ATP as a premium-product.

  • The highly energetic phosphate bond of PEPA is transferred to the ADP molecule and results in ATP formation.

5. DiHydroxyAcetonePhosphate Isomerization to PGAL.

5. DiHydroxyAcetonePhosphate Isomerization to PGAL.

Dihydroxyacetone phosphate, which was formed along with the formation of phosphoglyceraldehyde during the breaking of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. Both of these triose sugars are capable of isomerizing into either forms, and hence DHAP gets isomerized into G3P. This reaction activity is under the c...
