Key Equations

$$\text{Glucose} + 2\text{NAD}^+ + 2\text{ADP} + 2\text{P}_i \rightarrow 2\text{Pyruvate} + 2\text{NADH} + 2\text{H}^+ + 2\text{ATP} + 2\text{H}_2\text{O}$$
$$\text{F6P} + \text{ATP} \xrightarrow{\text{PFK-1}} \text{F1,6BP} + \text{ADP} \quad \Delta G^{\circ'} = -14.2 \text{ kJ/mol}$$
$$\text{G3P} + \text{NAD}^+ + \text{P}_i \rightleftharpoons \text{1,3-BPG} + \text{NADH} + \text{H}^+ \quad \Delta G^{\circ'} = +6.3 \text{ kJ/mol}$$
$$\text{2-PG} \rightleftharpoons \text{PEP} + \text{H}_2\text{O} \quad \Delta G^{\circ'} = +1.7 \text{ kJ/mol}$$
