Pyruvate is the end product of glycolysis, which is converted into acetyl coA that enters the Krebs cycle when there is sufficient oxygen available. When the oxygen is insufficient, is broken down anaerobically, creating lactate in animals (including humans) and ethanol in plants.
Structure of a mitochondrion. In aerobic respiration, pyruvate is transported into a mitochondrion, where the process of oxidation is completed. Respiration is the oxidation of energy-rich storage molecules, primarily glucose, to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a nucleotide with multiple functions.
