What are the steps of glycolysis?

Answer by  gluestix (6)

There are three steps in glycolysis. The first step is phosporylation, in which ATP is used to turn glucose into fructose 1,6-diphosphate and ADP. Second, this six carbon fructose 1,6-diphosphate is turned into 2 glyceraldehyde phosphate molecules. In the last step, 8 ADP molecules are converted to ATP and the glyceraldehyde phosphate molecules are turned into 2 pyruvate molecules.

Glycolysis converts glucose to pyruvate in 10 steps. Step 1: Glucose to glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) 2: G6P to fructose 6-phosphate 3: fructose 6-phosphate to β-D-Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate 4: β-D-Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate 5: dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GADP) 6: GADP to D-1,3-bisphosphoglycerate 7: 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate to 3-phosphoglycerate 8: Phosphoglycerate mutase to 2-phosphoglycerate. 9: 2-phosphoglycerate to phosphoenolpyruvate 10: phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate.
