The Pentose-Phosphate Pathway
![Step 1: Glucose-6-phosphate is a 6 carbon molecule in ring formation with a phosphate group at carbon 6. Step 2: Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase converts glucose-6-phosphate to 6-P-gluconolactone thereby producing NADPH/H+ from NADP+. Step 3: Gluconolactonase converts 6-P-gluconolactone to 6-P-gluconate by hydrolysis. Step 4: 6-P-gluconate dehydrogenase converts 6-P-gluconate to ribulose 5-phosphate thereby producing NADPH/H+ from NADP+.](https://ecampusontario.pressbooks.pub/app/uploads/sites/159/2018/07/OSC_Microbio_00_CC_PP-1024x318.jpg)
TCA Cycle
![Step 1: A carboxyl group is removed from pyruvate, releasing carbon dioxide. Step 2: NAD+ is reduced to NADH. Step 3: An acetyl group is transferred to coenzyme A, resulting in acetyl CoA.](https://ecampusontario.pressbooks.pub/app/uploads/sites/159/2018/07/OSC_Microbio_00_CC_ACA.jpg)
