The final reaction of glycolysis catalyzes hydrolysis of a phosphate from phosphoenolpyruvate, yielding pyruvate. This is an exergonic reaction with a ΔG of -61.9 kJ/mol. This reaction is coupled to the synthesis of ATP from ADP and phosphate. The ΔG of hydrolysis of ATP to ADP and Pi is -30.5 kJ/mol. What is the ΔG for the coupled reaction? Based on these calculations, define reaction coupling. Why is this reaction irreversible?
