Glycolysis


Glycolysis is the anaerobic catabolism of glucose.
It occurs in virtually all cells.
In eukaryotes, it occurs in the cytosol.

Glycolysis is one of the most universal metabolic processes known, and occurs (with variations) in many types of cells in nearly all types of organisms.

This process occurs in all organisms, and is responsible for converting glucose to pyruvate and generating ATP in the process. Glycolysis does not require oxygen to function.

Glycolysis is the initial metabolic pathway of carbohydrate catabolism. The most common and well-known form of glycolysis is the Embden -Meyerhof pathway. The term can be taken to include alternative pathways, such as the Entner-Doudoroff Pathway.

Glycolysis
During glycolysis, glucose (C6) is broken down to two molecules of pyruvate (C3). (*Compounds that end in "___ate" can be called "___ic acid". Example lactate is lactic acid and malate is malic acid.) ...

Glycolysis:
The anaerobic breakdown (that is, in the absence of oxygen) of carbohydrates, in which a molecule of glucose is converted by a series of steps to two molecules of lactic acid, yielding energy in the form of ATP.

glycolysis
(gly-kol-eh-sis) [Gk. glykys, sweet + lysis, loosening]
The splitting of glucose into pyruvate. Glycolysis is the one metabolic pathway that occurs in all living cells, serving as the starting point for fermentation or aerobic respiration.

glycolysis: the subdivision of cellular respiration in which glucose molecules are broken down to form pyruvic acid molecules.

glycolysis The conversion of glucose to pyruvic acid (pyruvate) with the release of some energy in the form of ATP. Occurs in the cytosol; literally "sugar splitting."
glycoprotein A protein with attached sugars.
