The catobolism of sugars is an oxidative process which results in the production of reduced pyridine nucleotides which must be reoxidized for the process to continue. Under aerobic conditions, reoxidation of reduced pyridine nucleotide occurs by electron transfer, via the cytochrome system, with oxygen acting as the terminal electron acceptor. However, under anaerobic conditions, reduced pyridine nucleotide oxidation is coupled with the reduction of an organic compound, which is often a subsequent product of the catabolic pathway.
