Optimization of Glycolysis: A New Look at the Efficiency of Energy Coupling

Introduction: the efficiency of glycolysis The pathway of carbohydrate metabolism called glycolysis serves to provide cells with energy in the form of adeno- sine triphosphate (ATP) under anaerobic conditions. The details of this pathway are presented in any biochemistry textbook with the net result illustrated in eqn (1), glucose + 2ADP + 2Pi ~ 2lactate + 2ATP + 2H + + 2H20
