Summary

The regulation of the glycolytic pathway also has a logic, one that is context-dependent. We finish our study of glycolysis with a look at some control issues. In order to fully understand the regulation of glycolysis, we must know a little bit about its alter-ego pathway, gluconeogenesis, along with general principles of metabolic regulation.
