Glycolysis
Occurs in the cytosol. Serves as the first step in the complete oxidation of glucose to CO2 and H2O.
Provides building blocks for the synthesis of cellular molecules. Can occur under aerobic OR anaerobic conditions.

In this reaction, large amounts of free energy are released during the conversion of enolpyruvate to pyruvate.
The rate of flux through metabolic pathways is regulated by four major processes:
Compartmentation.
Glucose-6-phosphate
Fructose-6-P
ADP/AMP
The concentrations of ADP/AMP in a cell is a good indicator of the need for ATP.
Fructose-1,6-BP
Feedback Inhibition
Phosphoenolpyruvate
Elevated PEP levels signal that the products of glycolysis are not being consumed.
Pyruvate
Pyruvate kinase
Glycolysis is regulated by signals outside the cell as well as by signals inside the cell
by insulin by glucagon
