This document discusses substrate level phosphorylation in glycolysis. Glycolysis is the process by which glucose is broken down into pyruvate, producing a net yield of 2 ATP molecules per glucose through substrate level phosphorylation at two steps. In step 7, 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate is converted to 3-phosphoglycerate with the generation of ATP. In step 10, phosphoenolpyruvate is converted to pyruvate with another ATP generated. These substrate level phosphorylation steps contribute significantly to ATP production in glycolysis, especially under anaerobic conditions.
