|
Which reactions in glycolysis are NOT irreversible?
|
|
phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate
|
|
|
fructose 6-phosphate to fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate
|
|
|
glucose to glucose 6-phosphate
|
|
|
glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate to fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -So the correct answer should be option “Triose phosphate mutase"
Detailed explanation-2: -The reactions of glycolysis convert glucose 6-phosphate to pyruvate. The entire process is cytosolic. Glucose 6-phosphate is reversibly isomerized to form fructose 6-phosphate. The physiologically irreversible phosphorylation of fructose 6-phosphate to form fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate is catalyzed by phosphofructokinase.
