Welcome to Metabolic Pathways Digital Study Tool
Select a pathway above to get started!
Pentose Phosphate Pathway (PPP)
The pentose phosphate pathway generates NADPH and pentoses. It has oxidative and non-oxidative phases.
Processes before Ribulose 5-phosphate are oxidative, and processes after, starting with Ribulose 5-phosphate, are non-oxidative.
Boxes not surrounded by yellow are enzymes (except glycolysis) (enzymes end in "-ase").
Left of the arrow "->" are additional substrates, and right of the arrow "->" are additional products.
When in study mode, click the boxes to uncover the labels, click again to cover. (Pinch to zoom in on diagram for mobile devices).
Glycolysis
Glycolysis breaks down glucose into pyruvate, producing ATP and NADH.
Boxes not surrounded by yellow are enzymes (enzymes end in "-ase").
"- -" means an additional product.
Left of the arrow "->" are additional substrates, and right of the arrow "->" are additional products.

Krebbs Cycle (Citric Acid Cycle)
The Krebbs cycle oxidizes acetyl-CoA to CO₂ and generates NADH, FADH₂, and ATP.
Boxes not surrounded by yellow are enzymes (enzymes end in "-ase").
"++" means an additional substrate needed for the enzyme. "- -" means an additional product.
Left of the arrow "->" are additional substrates, and right of the arrow "->" are additional products.
