A 6 carbon molecule glucose enters glycolysis

ADP with an enzyme react with glucose the high energy phosphate is released to produce Glucose 6-phosphate

An enzyme reacts with glucose 6-phosphate to produce Fructose 6-phosphate

ATP and an enzyme react with Fructose 6-phosphate releasing its high energy phosphate to produce Fructose 1,6-diohosphate

• An enzyme reacts with Fructose 1,6-diphosphate to cleve it into 2 molecules of Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate
• Everything from here happens twice because we now have 2 molecules

An enzyme, NAD+ and organic phosphate react with Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, NAD+ picks up H+h+ and electrons to create NADH+H+, organic phosphate binds and creates Diphosphoglyceric Acid a 3 carbon with phosphate on 1,3

ADP and an enzyme removing a phosphate to create ATP and 3-phosphoplyceric acid

An enzyme comes in and moves the phosphate from carbon 3 o carbon 2 to create 2-phosphoglyceric acid

Water and a enzyme enter to create Phosphoenolpyruvic Acid

• ADP and an enzyme enter to remove the final phosphate creating ATP and the final product of Pyruvic Acid
• This this point we have 2 molecules of pyruvic acid per glucose molecule

• NAD+ and Coenzyme-A react with Pyruvic Acid removing H+H+ and a CO2 to produce NADH+H+ and Acetyl CoA a 2 carbon molecule.
• And now is ready to enter Kreb's Crycle
