Connections of Carbohydrate, Protein, and Lipid Metabolic Pathways

Sugars, such as galactose, fructose, and glycogen, are catabolized into new products in order to enter the glycolytic pathway.

Excess amino acids are converted into molecules that can enter the pathways of glucose catabolism.

Lipids can be both made and broken down through parts of the glucose catabolism pathways.
