As the majority of non-equilibrium reactions in glycolysis are unsaturated, the rate of flow through the pathway is dependent on provision of precursors by, for example:

  • glycogenolysis in the liver
  • glucose, fructose and galactose absorption from the gut

In tandem, a number of enzymes within the pathway are subject to regulation by agents both extrinsic and intrinsic to the cell:

  • hexokinase
  • 6-phosphofructokinase
  • pyruvate kinase
