In the process of glycolysis, glucose is converted to: a. pyruvate. b. citrate. c. sucrose. d. oxaloacetate. e. ribose. What is the purpose of glycolysis? Write a balanced equation which describes the overall pathway. Which of the following enzymes in glycolysis catalyzes a step that involv...
Which of the following statements about the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) is true? Explain your choice as well as your reasoning for why the other statements are false. a) Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is the first committed step of the PPP a ...
Prokaryotic cells have the same four components found in all cells in the natural world: DNA, a cell membrane, cytoplasm and ribosomes. Their cytoplasm contains all of the enzymes needed for glycolysis, but the absence of mitochondria and chloroplasts means that glycolysis is really the only meta...
Middle School is a time of separating the wheat from the chaff academically and I established myself as one of the sensitive achievers, making me a hero to burnouts and metalheads everywhere who were at the time generally regarded as dumb. I was artistic and had good relationships with girls...
As such, the cell death pathways initiated in response to ischemic damage in the retina reflect those found in other areas of the central nervous system undergoing similar trauma. The retina is also more accessible than other areas of the central ner- vous system, thus making it a simpler ...

It would be most interesting to determine the level of cycling occurring in islets from control and diabetic mice or rats. Malonyl CoA, derived from Acetyl CoA (which itself is derived from Citrate via ATP-Citrate lyase) is formed in the ‘committed’ step of FA synthesis catalysed by Acetyl...
