thumb|Phylogenetic tree of bacteria and archaea, highlighting those that carry out fermentation. Their end products are also highlighted. Figure modified from Hackmann (2024). Fermentation is a type of anaerobic metabolism that harnesses the redox potential of the reactants to make adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and organic end products. Organic molecules, such as glucose or other sugars, are catabolized and their electrons are transferred to other organic molecules (cofactors, coenzymes, etc.). Anaerobic glycolysis is a related term used to describe the occurrence of fermentation in organisms (
AI overview
Fermentation is a metabolic process that allows cells to break down organic molecules like sugars and produce energy (ATP) without requiring oxygen, by transferring electrons between organic compounds. This process is important because it enables many bacteria and other organisms to survive and generate energy in environments where oxygen is unavailable.
