In the first stages of glycolysis glucose (6C) will be converted in to ____ ?
|
|
Pyruvic acid
|
|
|
Citric 1, 6-phosphate
|
|
|
Acetyl coA
|
|
|
Fructose 1, 6-biphosphate
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Glucose is first converted to fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate in a series of steps that use up two ATP. Then, unstable fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate splits in two, forming two three-carbon molecules called DHAP and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphae.
Detailed explanation-2: -So, the correct option is ‘Aldolase’.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the fourth step of glycolysis, a lyase reaction splits the 6-carbon fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate into two 3-carbon sugars, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate. The dihydroxyacetone phosphate is rearranged by another isomerase to form a second glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate.
