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.
Krebs cycle. is the 2nd stageof cellular respiration. (glycolysis is the 1st stage). During the Krebs cycle, pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide in a series of energy-extracting reactions. The Krebs cycle is also known as the. citric acid cycle. , because citric acid is one of its 1st products.The Krebs cycle starts when pyruvic acid formed by glycolysis enters the mitochondrion. The pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide and a 2-carbon acetyl group. The 2 carbons of the acetyl group join a 4-carbon compound to produce citric acid.The Krebs cycle continues in a series of reactions.rebs cycle. is the 2nd stageof cellular respiration.
