You discovered a novel bacterium that glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is phosphorylated and oxidized by
ATP in the following reaction: ATP + H2O + NAD+ + glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate --> ADP + NADH +
H+ + 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate a) How is this different from the reaction that occurs in most species? b)
Do you think the AG for this reaction is going to be more negative or less negative than the reaction
that occurs in most species? Why or why not?

Explanation:
Glycolysis is a metabolic pathway and an anaerobic source of energy that has evolved in nearly all types of organisms. Another name for the process is the Embden-Meyerhof pathway, in honor of the major contributors towards its discovery and understanding.[1] Although it doesn't require oxygen, hence its purpose in anaerobic respiration, it is also the first step in cellular respiration. The process entails the oxidation of glucose molecules, the single most crucial organic fuel in plants, microbes, and animals. Most cells prefer glucose (although there are exceptions, such as acetic acid bacteria that prefer ethanol). In glycolysis, 2 ATP molecules are consumed, with the production of 4 ATP, 2 NADH, and 2 pyruvates per molecule of glucose. The pyruvate can be used in the citric acid cycle or serve as a precursor for other reactions.[2][3][4]
Fundamentals
Glycolysis ultimately splits glucose into two pyruvate molecules. One can think of glycolysis as having two phases, occurring in the cytosol of cells. The first phase is the "investment" phase due to its usage of two ATP molecules, and the second is the "payoff" phase. These reactions are all catalyzed by its own enzyme, with phosphofructokinase being the most essential for regulation as it controls the speed of glycolysis.
