Substrate-level phosphorylation - Respiration

Cards (1)

    • This is when a phosphate group is transferred from a substrate molecule to ADP in order to produce ATP.
    • This is the method of producing ATP used in both glycolysis and the Krebs cycle (see later).
    • For example, triose phosphate is a phosphate source in glycolysis.
    • This method is unusual in that it does not require ATP synthase (it uses a different enzyme you don’t need to know the name of).
