BIOL 540 Lecture Notes - Lecture 33: Glutathione Reductase, Ribose 5-Phosphate, Oxidative Decarboxylation
Document Summary
Introduction pentose phosphate pathway provides reducing power in the cytosol glycolysis also does this makes nadph needed by the vs glycolysis which nadh which glutathione reductase system is. 1 oxidative decarboxylation removal of carbondioxideandleaks a reducing equivalence reactions are not freely reversible glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase concerts glucose 6 phosphate to 6 phosphogluconos lactone and nadph. 6c glucose 6 phosphate is made from hexokinase or glucokinase from other pathway. 6 phosphogluconolactonase converts phospho lactone to 6 phosphogluconate glucono f. 6 phosphogluconate dehydrogenase converts 6 phosphogluconate to ribose 5 phosphate coz and. 2 nonoxidative phase to ribose 5 phosphate ribolose the end product is but for this recycles ribulose 5 phosphate to glycolytic intermediates and reactions are freely reversible r pentosephosphate epimerase interconverts ribulose 5 phosphate and xylulose. 5 phosphate an transketolase transfers a two carbon unit of ketose xylulose aldose.
