So... hypertrophic facet sclerosis means that (some) joints in the spine look overgrown. And (since I'm guessing this was diagnosed via x-ray) the sclerosis refers to the extra whiteness that shows up on the x-ray in the area of those joints.o... hypertrophic facet sclerosis means that (some) joints in the spine look overgrown.

Other relevant reactions in the pathway include those in glycolysis and pyruvate oxidation before the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation after it. In addition, it provides precursors for many compounds including some amino acids and is therefore functional even in cells performing fermentation.itrate synthase catalyzes the condensation reaction of the two-carbon acetate residue from acetyl coenzyme A and a molecule of four-carbon oxaloacetate to form the six-carbon citrate.Oxaloacetate will be regenerated after the completion of one round of the Krebs Cycle. acetyl-CoA. Oxaloacetic acid.
What is not involved in the step that occurs between glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle Glycolysis: Four ATP's are made through substrate-level phosphorylation, but two ATP are used int he reactions. A six carbon compound is catabolized into two three carbon compounds (pyruvate.) two NADH's are produced.
