    Infants have an enzyme in the small intestine that metabolizes lactose to galactose and glucose. Galactose is converted in the liver to G-6-P and can thus enter the glycolytic pathway. Fructose is converted into glycogen in the liver and then follows the same pathway as glycogen to enter glycolysis. Sucrose is broken down into glucose and fructose; glucose enters the pathway directly while fructose is converted to glycogen.Non-glucose monosaccharides can also enter glycolysis. For instance, sucrose (table sugar) is made up of glucose and fructose. When this sugar is broken down, the fructose can easily enter glycolysis: addition of a phosphate group turns it into fructose-6-phosphate. Glycogen is broken down into G-1-P and converted into glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) in both muscle and liver cells; this product enters the glycolytic pathway
