Glucose is mainly used by the body for short-term energy. Glucose is taken up by cells and converted to pyruvate in a multistep, multienzyme process called glycolysis. Glucose residues are also linked to serine and threonine amino acids of glycoproteins.lucose is a six-carbon molecule with multiple hydroxyl groups attached. Its most common form is a ringed pyranose structure, shown in the image.
The name glucose is from the Greek word for 'sweet' , which is 'glukus.' Glucose is a monosaccharide, which is another term for a simple sugar. It is one of three monosaccharides that are used by the body, but it is the only one that can be used directly to produce ATP. ATP is used by the body for energy; in fact, ATP is the only molecule that can be used for energy. Thus, adequate glucose levels are essential. Glucose is both helpful and harmful to organisms.
