No. To break a protein down into its amino acids you will need enzymes. Enzymes are biological molecules (proteins) that act as catalysts and help complex reactions occur everywhere in life. Letâs say you ate a piece of meat. Proteases would go to work and help break down the peptide bonds between the amino acids.
Glycolysis itself does not output CO2. Just after glycolysis the 2 pyruvates which are derived from the glucose molecule during glycolysis, are converted into 2 acetyl CoA in â¦ the process of which one CO2 per pyruvate is released. After that the 2 acetyl CoA's enter the Kerbs cycle and a further 2 CO2's are produced for each.
Glycolysis the the metabolic reaction which produces two molecules of ATP through the conversion of glucose into pyruvate, water and NADH in the absence of oxygen. The glucose for glycolysis can be supplied as glucose through the bloody supply but is more often converted from glycogen in the muscle fibers.
