After the conversion of glucose into two moles of pyruvate through the glycolysis, pyruvate is oxidatively decarboxylated into Acetyl-CoA in the mitochondria by the pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme complex.
3. Oxidation of Isocitrate to 3. Oxidation of Isocitrate to αα-Ketoglutarate and CO-Ketoglutarate and CO22
4. Oxidation of Isocitrate to 4. Oxidation of Isocitrate to αα-Ketoglutarate and CO-Ketoglutarate and CO22

Oxidative decarboxylation of the two mole of pyruvate produced from one mole of glucose gives 2 NADH.H+ that gives 6 ATP.
Oxidation of isocitrate by isocitrate dehydrogenase gives 2 NADH.H+ that gives 6 ATP.
Oxidative decarboxylation of -ketoglutarate to succinyl-CoA gives 2 NADH.H+ that gives 6 ATP.
Substrate level phosphorylation from succinyl-CoA gives 2 ATP.Oxidation of succinate to fumarate gives 2 FADH2, thus 4 ATP.Oxidation of malate to oxaloacetate gives 2 NADH.H+, i.e., 6 ATP. Thus, for each mole of glucose oxidized by oxidative decarboxylation followed by Krebs' cycle 30 ATP are produced. Complete oxidation of one glucose molecule in aerobic conditions gives 8 ATP at aerobic glycolysis + 30 ATP at Krebs' cycle giving a total of 38 ATP.

Citrate synthase: it is an allosteric enzyme inhibited by ATP and long chain fatty acyl-CoA. It is competitively inhibited by succinyl-CoA.
Isocitrate dehydrogenase: The enzyme is allosterically activated by ADP and NAD and inhibited by ATP and NADH.H+.
-Ketoglutarate dehydrogenase: The enzyme is regulated by phosphorylation /dephosphorylation mechanism in a manner similar to pyruvate dehydrogenase. This enzyme is inhibited by accumulation of ATP, succinyl-CoA and NADH.H+.
Succinate dehydrogenase It is inhibited by oxaloacetate and malonate. That depends on the NADH/NAD ratio.
Fluoroacetate: This compound in the form of fluoroacetyl-CoA condenses with oxaloacetate to form fluorocitrate that inhibits aconitase leading to accumulation of citrate.
Arsenate: inhibits both pyruvate dehydrogenase and -ketoglutarate dehydrogenase.
Malonate or oxaloacetate: Inhibits succinate dehydrogenase enzyme (competitive inhibition).
Mercury inhibits succinate dehydrogenase.

Definition:It is an alternative minor pathway for glucose oxidation that does not produce ATP nor utilize it. It aims at producing NADPH+H+ and ribose. It is considered as a shunt from the main stream of glycolysis.Intracellular site and tissue distribution: It is cytosolic in tissues characterized by active fatty acid or steroid synthesis namely: liver, adipose tissues, lactating mammary gland, RBCs, suprarenal cortex, thyroid and testis.It is not active in non-lactating mammary gland, and in skeletal muscles.
Regulation of HMP shunt: - The key regulatory enzymes are glucose-6-phosphate and 6-phospho-gluconate dehydrogenases. They are activated by fed state, glucose, insulin, thyroxine and NADP but are inhibited during starvation, diabetes mellitus and with high NADPH.H+/NADP ratio.
I- Production of pentoses:Tissues must satisfy their own requirement of pentoses since dietary pentoses are not utilizable and ribose is not a significant constituent of systemic blood. Pentoses are used for:1.Nucleic acids, ribose for RNA and deoxyribose for DNA.2.Coenzymes synthesis, e.g., NAD, FAD, CoASH.3.Other free nucleotide Coenzymes, e.g., ATP, GTP, 4.Synthesis of certain vitamins, e.g., B2 and B 12.
II- Production of NADPH.H+
Tissues having the following metabolic and synthetic pathways have active HMP shunt (liver, adipose tissue, lactating mammary gland, kidney, testis, ovary and adrenal cortex).
HMP pathway is the major human source for production of NADPH.H+ required for:1.Fatty acid synthesis (lipogenesis) and fatty acid desaturation.2.Cholesterol synthesis. 3.Other steroid synthesis.4.Synthesis of sphingosine and cerebrosides.5.Synthesis of non-essential amino acids, e.g., glutamate (through the reversible glutamate dehydrogenase) and tyrosine from phenylalanine.6.Regeneration of reduced glutathione.7.Metabolic hydroxylation with cytp450.
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (sometimes also called G6PD deficiency, or favism) is a hereditary disease. As it is linked to the X chromosome, most people who suffer from it are male.Sufferers can not make the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. This will mean the circulation of sugar in their body is different.
G6PD catalyzes the first step in the pentose phosphate pathway, which produces NADPH. This reductant, essential in many biosynthetic pathways, also protects cells from oxidative damage by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and superoxide free radicals, highly reactive oxidants generated as metabolic byproducts and through the actions of drugs such as primaquine and natural products such as divicine—the toxic ingredient of fava beans.
During normal detoxification, H2O2 is converted to H2O by reduced glutathione and glutathione peroxidase, and the oxidized glutathione is converted back to the reduced form by glutathione reductase and NADPH.H2O2 is also broken down to H2O and O2 by catalase,which also requires NADPH. In G6PD-deficient individuals, the NADPH production is diminished and detoxification of H2O2 is inhibited. Cellular damage results: lipid peroxidation leading to breakdown of erythrocyte membranes and oxidation of proteins and DNA.
An antimalarial drug such as primaquine is believedto act by causing oxidative stress to the parasite.It is ironic that antimalarial drugs can cause illnessthrough the same biochemical mechanism thatprovides resistance to malaria. Divicine also acts as an antimalarial drug, and ingestion of fava beans may protect against malaria.
It is another minor alternative pathway for glucose oxidation by which glucuronic acid, ascorbic acid and pentoses are obtained from glucose. Like HMP shunt, it does not need nor generate ATP.
Site: In cytosol of many tissues, especially liver, kidney and intestine.

Biological importance of Uronic Acid Pathway:1-Production of UDP-glucuronic acid, which is the metabolically active form of glucuronic acid which enters in:• Synthesis of mucopolysaccharides.• Detoxification by conjugation: UDP-glucuronic acid is
used to detoxify steroid hormones, drugs and toxins.• Formation of conjugated bilirubin.
2-Formation of pentoses.3-Formation of vitamin C in plants and animal except man and guinea pigs.
