Glycolysis A series of 10 enzyme-catalyzed and reactions that convert glucose molecule into two pyruvate molecules
What is step 1 of Glycolysis? Phosphoration
What is step 2 of Glycolysis? isomerization of glucose 6- phosphate to fructose6-phosphate
What is step 3 of Glycolysis? makes a second energy investment as fructose 6-phosphate is converted to fructose 1,6 biphosphate bt reaction with ATP in another exergonic reaction
