Engineering and characterization of alternative configurations of glycolysis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

One of the most conserved and central parts of metabolism is the pathway of glycolysis, that breaks down hexose sugars. While multiple variants of glycolytic pathway exist, the Emden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway which converts glucose to two molecules of pyruvate with the net gain of two ATP and two reduced NADH moieties is the one predominantly...
