Entry of Other Sugars to the Glycolysis Pathway

Fructose

adipose cells
.

The first step involves the enzyme
plasma membrane
, ensuring that it remain in the cell.
Fructose (Fru) Fructokinase
Fructose-1-phosphate
(F1P)
 
ATP H+ + ADP
 
 
The next step splits the molecule, with the catalysis of an
aldolase
.
Fructose-1-phosphate
(F1P)
Fructose 1-P aldolase Glyceraldehyde (Gly) dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP)
+

DHAP is processed regularly as part of the glycolysis pathway. Glyceraldehyde is processed in the following reaction.

Glyceraldehyde (Gly)
Triose kinase
G3P (G3P)
 
ATP H+ + ADP
