Alternative Nomenclature
Some of the metabolites in glycolysis have alternative names and nomenclature. In part, this is because some of them are common to other pathways, such as the Calvin cycle.

| 3 | fructose 6-phosphate | F6P | ||
| 4 | fructose 1,6-bisphosphate | F1,6BP | fructose 1,6-diphosphate | FBP, FDP, F1,6DP |
| 5 | dihydroxyacetone phosphate | DHAP | glycerone phosphate | |
| 6 | glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate | GADP | 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde | PGAL, G3P, GALP,GAP,TP |
| 7 | 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate | 1,3BPG | glycerate 1,3-bisphosphate, glycerate 1,3-diphosphate, 1,3-diphosphoglycerate |

Famous quotes containing the word alternative:
“It is a secret from nobody that the famous random event is most likely to arise from those parts of the world where the old adage “There is no alternative to victory” retains a high degree of plausibility.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
