glycolysis occur in the cytosol just outside of mitrocondria
During glucose breakdown, glycolysis and fermentation occur anaerobically. Glycolysis breaks a glucose molecule into energy and pyruvate. Fermentation uses to the pyruvate to form either ethanol or lactate.
Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex react with pyruvate to form acetyl-CoA
Pyruvate is broken down oxidized to CO2 in the mitochondria. The oxidation of pyruvate also reduces coenzymes NADH and FADH2. The electrons from these coenzymes are fed through the electron transport chain and eventually end up on oxygen creating water. The transport of electrons through the ETC pumps protons (H+) from the mitochondrial matrix to the inner membrane space. This creates a proton gradient that forces protons back through an integral membrane protein in the inner mitochondrial membrane called ATP Synthase. The rotation of ATP Synthase creates ATP from ADP and Pi.
Pyruvate grooming links glycolysis, which breaks down glucose into pyruvate, and the citric acid cycle, which further breaks down pyruvate to produce energy in the form of ATP. This process helps maximize the energy extracted from glucose during cellular respiration.
Cytoplasm
There will be a buildup of pyruvate in the cell
The synthesis of pyruvate occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell during glycolysis. It is the final step in the glycolytic pathway, where glucose is converted to two molecules of pyruvate.
Glucose is broken down into pyruvate.
glycolysis occur in the cytosol just outside of mitrocondria
Pyruvate processing occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells. It is an important step in cellular respiration where pyruvate is converted to acetyl-CoA before entering the citric acid cycle to generate ATP.
