Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the enzyme that forms PGAL and DHAP from fructose 1, 6 bis phosphate
A
Aldolase
B
Kinase
C
Isomerase
D
Dehydrogenase
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) is converted to glyceradehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) by the enzyme triose phosphate isomerase.

Detailed explanation-2: -The fructose-bisphosphate aldolase, often called aldolase, is a glycolytic enzyme that catalyses the conversion of fructose 1-6-diphosphate to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and dihydroxy-acetone phosphate via the glycolysis metabolic pathway.

Detailed explanation-3: -Fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate aldolase is a ubiquitous cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the fourth step of glycolysis. Aldolases are classified into three groups: Class-I, Class-IA, and Class-II; all classes share similar structural features but low amino acid identity.
