Glycolysis is the initial stage of cellular respiration where glucose, a 6-carbon sugar, is broken down into two 3-carbon pyruvate molecules, yielding a net gain of 2 ATP and 2 NADH. This ancient metabolic pathway occurs in the cytosol and is essential for all life forms, having evolved in an anaerobic environment where early prokaryotes captured energy without oxygen. Despite its inefficiency in energy production, glycolysis remains the starting point for aerobic respiration. Understanding glycolysis reveals its evolutionary significance and foundational role in energy metabolism.

What’s thepoint? The pointis to makeATP! ATP
glucose pyruvate 6C 3C 2x Glycolysis • Breaking down glucose • “glyco – lysis” (splitting sugar) • ancient pathway which harvests energy • where energy transfer first evolved • transfer energy from organic molecules to ATP • still is starting point for ALL cellular respiration • but it’s inefficient • ______________________________________ • occurs in cytosol In thecytosol?Why doesthat makeevolutionarysense? That’s not enoughATP for me!
Evolutionary perspective Enzymesof glycolysis are“well-conserved” • Prokaryotes • first cells had no organelles • Anaerobic atmosphere • life on Earth first evolved withoutfree oxygen (O2) in atmosphere • energy had to be captured from organic molecules in absence of O2 • Prokaryotes that evolved glycolysis are ancestors of all modern life • ___________________________________________ You meanwe’re related?Do I have to invitethem over for the holidays?
