Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate - Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate in Glycolysis

Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate in Glycolysis

Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate lies within the glycolysis metabolic pathway and is produced by phosphorylation of fructose 6-phosphate. It is, in turn, broken down into two compounds: glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate. It is an allosteric activator of pyruvate kinase.
