The cost of efficiency in energy metabolism [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013 In a universe being dragged into disorder by the second law of thermodynamics, living cells must expend energy to maintain their complex organization. In addition to providing a carbon source for biosynthesis, the classical Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas (EMP) and Entner-Doudoroff (ED) pathways help to satisfy this energetic demand by generating ATP during ...
