Entry term(s) glucólisis
Scope note: Proceso metabólico que convierte GLUCOSA en dos moléculas de ACIDO PIRÚVICO a través de una serie de reacciones enzimáticas. La energía generada en este proceso se conserva en dos moléculas de ATP. La glicólisis constituye la vía catabólica universal de la glucosa, la glucosa libre, o la glucosa derivada de CARBOHIDRATOS complejos, como el GLUCÓGENO y el ALMIDÓN.

Scope note: A metabolic process that converts GLUCOSE into two molecules of PYRUVIC ACID through a series of enzymatic reactions. Energy generated by this process is conserved in two molecules of ATP. Glycolysis is the universal catabolic pathway for glucose, free glucose, or glucose derived from complex CARBOHYDRATES, such as GLYCOGEN and STARCH.

Glycolysis - Preferred
Concept UI M0009480
Scope note A metabolic process that converts GLUCOSE into two molecules of PYRUVIC ACID through a series of enzymatic reactions. Energy generated by this process is conserved in two molecules of ATP. Glycolysis is the universal catabolic pathway for glucose, free glucose, or glucose derived from complex CARBOHYDRATES, such as GLYCOGEN and STARCH.
Preferred term Glycolysis
Embden-Meyerhof Pathway - Narrower
Concept UI M0473538
Scope note An old term for glycolysis. Often it is used to describe anaerobic glucose catabolism that includes the further conversion of PYRUVIC ACID to LACTIC ACID or ETHANOL.
