Glycolysis is the process of breaking down a glucose molecule into two pyruvate molecules, while storing energy released during this process as adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). (wikipedia.org)
Gluconeogenesis (GNG) is a metabolic pathway that results in the generation of glucose from certain non-carbohydrate carbon substrates. (wikipedia.org)
Key difference: Aerobic Glycolysis is the metabolism of glucose, whereas, Aerobic Lipolysis is the metabolism of fat. (imingo.net)
Glucose (Glc), a monosaccharide (or simple sugar ), is an important carbohydrate in biology . (wikidoc.org)
The mirror-image of the molecule, L -glucose, cannot be metabolized by cells in the biochemical process known as glycolysis . (wikidoc.org)
Only 7 of these are found in living organisms, of which D -glucose (Glu), D - galactose (Gal) and D - mannose (Man) are the most important. (wikidoc.org)
Fructose1
Rounding out the upper glycolysis pathway, the identity of the fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase in the genome was verified and reported to have substantial activity with fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, in the presence of the divalent ion, Zn 2+ . (biomedcentral.com)
Metabolism2
Carbohydrate metabolism is the whole of the biochemical processes responsible for the metabolic formation, breakdown, and interconversion of carbohydrates in living organisms. (wikipedia.org)
These findings along with previous proteomic data suggest that Pfp, plays a role in both glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway, while PfkA and PfkB may phosphorylate sugars in glycolysis but is responsible for sugar metabolism elsewhere under conditions outside of growth on sufficient cellobiose.

Dehydrogenase1
In the sixth step of the glycolytic pathway, the first step of the second phase, the payoff phase, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12) catalyses the oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (1,3-BPG), with the concomitant reduction of NAD + to NADH.

Sugars1
Glycolysis, which translates to "splitting sugars", is the process of releasing energy within sugars. (imingo.net)
Triglycerides2
Lipolysis /lɪˈpɒlɪsɪs/ is the metabolic pathway through which lipid triglycerides are hydrolyzed into a glycerol and three fatty acids. (imingo.net)
To obtain energy from fat, triglycerides must first be broken down by hydrolysis into their two principal components, fatty acids and glycerol. (imingo.net)
Pentose1
We now demonstrate that this enzyme can also phosphorylate sedoheptulose-7-phosphate (an intermediate in the pentose phosphate pathway), with the V max and K m of F6P being approximately 15 folds higher and 43 folds lower, respectively, in comparison to sedoheptulose-7-phosphate. (biomedcentral.com)
Lipolysis is the metabolic process through which triacylglycerols (TAGs) break down via hydrolysis into their constituent molecules: glycerol and free fatty acids (FFAs). (imingo.net)
Fatty acids1
SCIRP: Food and Nutrition Sciences, Vol. In this process, both in vivoand in cultur… This binding will likewise lead to the cAMP/PKA-led phosphorylation of hormone sensitive lipase, that will ultimately drive the release of free fatty acids and glycerol. (imingo.net)

Definition, foods, and health effects of the Mediterranean Diet, Mediterranean Diet and greenhouse gas emissions, Structure, classification and functions of carbohydrates, Chemical structure and classification of starch, Glycogen synthesis pathway in the liver and muscle. (imingo.net)
Tissues1
In some tissues and organisms, glycolysis is the sole method of energy production. (wikipedia.org)
NADH1
During the second phase, chemical energy from the intermediates is transferred into ATP and NADH. (wikipedia.org)
In humans, substrates for gluconeogenesis may come from any non-carbohydrate sources that can be converted to pyruvate or intermediates of glycolysis (see figure). (wikipedia.org)
Metabolic2
Carbohydrates are central to many essential metabolic pathways. (wikipedia.org)
The living cell uses it as a source of energy and metabolic intermediate. (wikidoc.org)
Photosynthesis1
Plants synthesize carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water through photosynthesis, allowing them to store energy absorbed from sunlight internally. (wikipedia.org)
Occurs1
In many other animals, the process occurs during periods of fasting, starvation, low-carbohydrate diets, or intense exercise. (wikipedia.org)
Process1
Glycolysis can be regulated at different steps of the process through feedback regulation. (wikipedia.org)
Grape berry components are, in roughly decreasing order of concentration: water and other inorganic substances, carbohydrates, acids, phenols, nitrogen compounds, terpenoids, fats and lipoids and flavour compounds (Boulton et al. (moam.info)
Plants synthesize carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water through photosynthesis, allowing them to store energy absorbed from sunlight internally. (wikipedia.org)
Cells1
When animals and fungi consume plants, they use cellular respiration to break down these stored carbohydrates to make energy available to cells. (wikipedia.org)
