Biochemistry Metabolism of carbohydrate a8ab8ba3

Inhibition of glycolysis by increased supply of O2 is

A
Crabtree effect
B
Pasteur effect
C
Lewis effect
D
Warburg effect
High-Yield Explanation
uCrab Tree Effect - Increasing concentrations of glucose accelerates glycolysis (the breakdown of glucose) which results in the production of appreciable amounts of ATP through substrate level phosphorylation. uPasteur effect - Under aerobic conditions, glycolysis is inhibited. This inhibitory effect of oxygen on glycolysis.uWarburg Effect - Most cancer cells predominantly produce energy by a high rate of glycolysis followed by lactic acid fermentation in the cytosol, rather than by a comparatively low rate of glycolysis followed by oxidation of pyruvate in mitochondria as in most normal cells.Lehninger, Albe (2008).
