Music about glycolysis (2)

Dr. Ahern (www.davincipress.com/metabmelodies.html) has based on the song A Few of My Favorite Things to dedicate a music to glycolysis. Here it is the link for the download.

Instructor sings

Aldehyde sugars are always aldoses and

If there's a ketone we call them ketoses

Some will form structures in circular rings

Saccharides do some incredible things

Onto a glucose we add a 'P' to it

ATP energy ought to renew it

Quick rearranging creates F6P

Without requiring input energy

Everyone Sings

At a high rate

Add a phosphate

With PFK

F1,6BP is made up this way

So we can run and play

Instructor sings

Aldolase breaks it and then it releases

DHAP and a few G3Pieces

These both turn in to 1,3 BPG

Adding electrons onto NAD

Phosphate plus ADP makes ATP

While giving cells what they need - en-er-gy

Making triphosphate's a situa-shun

Of substrate level phosphoryla-shun

3-B-P-G

2-B-P-G

Lose a water

PEP gets a high energy state

Just to make py-ru-vate

Instructor sings

So all the glucose gets broken and bent

If there's no oxygen cells must ferment

Pyruvate / lactate our cells hit the wall

Some lucky yeast get to make ethanol

This is the end of your glucose's song

Unless you goof up and get it all wrong

Break it, don't make it to yield ATP

You'll save your cells from fu-til-i-ty

Everyone Sings

The Sound of Glucose
