What is the end point of the transition reaction during glycolysis?

Answer 1

Acetyl-CoA

Here is a summary of glycolysis and the Krebs cycle:

Answer 2

After glycolysis, you get 2 pyruvic acids. These go into the transition stage. the pyruvic acids are oxidized into an acetyl group carried by coenzyme-A. Also NADH is created and some carbon dioxide is also released.

so, 1 glucose equals 2 pyruvic acids in glycolysis

2 pyruvic acids equals 2 acetyl-coenzyme-A groups and 2 NADH, and 2 carbon dioxides

the end point is when the acetyl-coenzyme-A group combines with oxaloacetate to form citrate, this is the end of the transition reaction and the beginning of the kreb cycle also known as the citric acid cycle.

okay , you got it, yes, all right, i knew you would
