Fast Glycolysis and Slow Glycolysis Glycolysis can be broken up into two different parts – fast glycolysis and slow glycolysis.The determining factor is the direction in which the end product, pyruvate, goes. Within fast glycolysis the pyruvate is converted into lactate. With lactate our body can...
glycolysis may be the only metabolic process available. This is where the "lactic acid burn" you may have heard about comes in. If pyruvate cannot enter aerobic respiration as described below, it is converted into lactate, which itself doesn't do a ...
Thanks wildfyr, yes all we need to know is restricted to the molecules found in food-related metabolic pathways (glycolysis, Krebs, Wakil and the like) so they basically only teach us the main functional groups (carboxylic acid, hydroxy, ester, carbonyl, amine, amid, thiol, thioester, and...
The “fatome” is the unique balance of fats we each consume in our diets that influences our health. Our optimal fatomes are unique to us and depend on our genomes, microbiomes, lifestyles, and nutritional perspectives.
Focus on the substrates and products. What goes in? What comes out? Does citric acid cycle produce NADH? How are proteins catabolized into the Krebs cycle? What is the molecule does the cell create from pyruvate when oxygen is not present in the cell? What is the pathway that breaks ...
The metabolic pathways of the body are fascinating and foundational aspects of our survival. The Urea Cycle may not get as much attention asglycolysisor the Citric Acid Cycle, but its production of urea allows us to process excess nitrogenous waste in a fast and efficient way. It takes only ...
Focus on the substrates and products. What goes in? What comes out? What are the PH in the cytosol and the mitochondrial of a microorganism, such as A.niger? and are the PH stable in the cytosol and mitochondrial. Besides, how is it possible to adjust the PH of a microorganism? How...
Why run those reactions when you are in perpetual glycolysis? When you finally decide to eat right and go to the gym, you don’t lose any fat because you ‘burn’ glucose preferentially. If you happen to burn up your stored sugar, your liver will tear down your skeletal muscle (...
Glycolysis Calories and Body Fat What do calories and body fat have in common? How are these two big-time players in weight loss related? The human body is equipped with preservative actions, such as storing extra fuel for later use. This comes from a time, not long ago, in terms of ...
Fructose is by itself… That’s it… A 5-Carbon sugar. That really doesn’t go into the glycolysis pathway THAT much. And many humans are highly variante and polymorphic in the genes permitting it Fructose to get into the glycolytic pathway. That means you drop in your ATP generati...
