Glycolysis and gluconeogenesis are two pathways of glucose metabolism. One is breakdown of glucose while other is systhesis of glucose.Glycolysis and gluconeogenesis are totally opposite to each other as mentioned above. Both of them have many difference other then their action which are … [Read more...]
Differences between Glycolysis and HMP Shunt
Glycolysis (also called Embden Meyerhoff pathway) and HMP shunt (also called pentose phosphate pathway, phosphogluconate pathway or direct pathway) both are glucose breakdown pathways. The difference is that glycolysis is the breakdown of glucose up to pyruvate or lactate. While HMP shunt is the … [Read more...]
