Without going back to review, I recall sucrose->glucose+fructose->2 x fructose 1,6 di-phosphate at the start of the TCA cycle. Last time I opened my Lehninger Biochemistry book was 1975.

Hah! brings back memories. I recall there being a “UDP” in there somewhere, that I can’t spell out anymore - uridene(sp?) di-phospate.

Yeah, I think that was 1975 for me as well.

To think I could easily draw out the entire embden-meyerhof pathway from memory because I was fascinated by all that ... not any more. I loved metabolic pathways.

I blew the curve in that biochemistry class one time - scored a 100 on a curved test. I recall the prof handing me back my exam upside down and curved to obscure my score from others. Scared the crap outta me because that’s how failing grades were often handed out.
