The pentose phosphate pathway takes place in the cytosol of the cell, the same location as glycolysis. 

The ribose-5-phosphate sugar, which is necessary for the synthesis of DNA and RNA, and the NADPH molecules, which aid in the synthesis of other molecules, are the two most significant byproducts of this process.
