Catabolism

Catabolism logo #22136The process by which large molecules are broken down into smaller molecules. Catabolism is the opposite of anabolism and part of metabolism. Catabolic reactions release energy, some of which is used to synthesise adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Glycolysis - the stepwise conversion of glucose to pyruvate - is an example of a catabolic reaction.
