Glycolysis Process-Function Links
Initial comments:
GO term:glycolysis
GO id:GO:0006096
Definition:The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of a monosaccharide (generally glucose) into pyruvate, with the concomitant production of a small amount of ATP. Pyruvate may be converted to ethanol, lactate, or other small molecules, or fed into the TCA cycle.
Comment from Chris: If it is NOT glucose, then do the has_part relations below still hold?)
This has two is_a children:
GO term:anaerobic glycolysis
Synonym: modifed Embden-Meyerhof pathway
GO id:GO:0019642 Definition: NONE GIVEN!!!
and
GO term:Embden-Meyerhof pathway
Synonym: Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway
GO id:GO:0019641
Definition:The main pathway for anaerobic degradation of carbohydrates. Starch or glycogen is hydrolyzed to glucose 1-phosphate and then through a series of intermediates, yielding two ATP molecules per glucose and producing either pyruvate (which feeds into the tricarboxylic acid cycle) or lactate.
comment from Chris: surely this is a problem? Surely EM pathway should be an is_a child of anaerobic glycolysis? I would expect:Glycolysis+ Aerobic+ Anaerobiv++ EM pathway++ ???Genus differentia definitions definitely help!
Note that Reactome begins glycolysis with G6P to F6P in both plants and animalsAs does your series of steps below. So there is no disagreement? Just checking.
Actually, most of the steps of GO:0019641 are included in glycolysis, but not the first steps
That is: EM pathway has parts that are not necessarily held by glycolisis
There are several ways to get G-6P, actually two basic ways; either from free glcose
a. Hexokinase: G + ATP -> G-6P
b. Glycogen Phosphorylase catalyzes phosphorolytic cleavage of the a(1®4) glycosidic linkages of glycogen, releasing glucose-1-phosphate as the reaction product. Phosphoglucomutase then catalyzes the reversible reaction: Glucose-1-phosphate to Glucose-6-phosphate; so hexokinase is not used here; thus, I do not count hexokinase as a required step in what we call glycolysis.
c. Starch; muliple glucose linked with 1-4 alpha, aka soluble starch, is broken down via alpha-amylase into maltose (2 subunits of glucose) and then further broken down to glucose, which then is activated via reaction “a”
d. cellulose: beta 1-4 links; bacteria and plants, and fungi: glycoside hydrolases.
Some textbooks include hexokinase as a step in glycolysis,but note that it is not the only way to get G6P, and therefore, I start glycolysis after hexokinase.

Reverse reaction occurs in glycolysis. I think we have to consider the implications of this.
This is the last step of glycolysis shared by all the various subtypes of glycolysis‚
In anaerobic systems, pyruvate cannot be further oxidized.
In yeast, pyruvate is converted to acetaldehyde by pyruvate decarboxylase, and then ethanol is produced from acetaldehyde and NADH (the reverse reaction of alchohol deydrogenase).
I believe that what happens to the pyruvate aftewards should not be grouped into glycolysis.
In mammals, pyruvate can be disposed of in two ways
anaerobically:
Pyruvate + NADH is converted to lactate +NAD (reverse of lactate dehydrogenase).
or Aerobically:
pyruvate dehydrogenase
Pyruvate + NAD+ CoA = Acetyl-CoA +NADH+CO2
This goes on to the TCA cycle
There should be a term in BP for this
(or, pyruvate can carboxylated (PDC) t
Pyruvate + CO2 + ATP = Oxaloacetate + ADP + PI
Oxoaloacetate condenses with Acetyl-CoA in the 1rst step of the TCA cycle, to give citrate. Again, these are not part of glycolysis, but are involved in what to do with the pyruvate once formed.
