5. A mutation causes a change in the shape of the active site of an enzyme involved in glycolysis. This enzyme is an isomerase (see the diagram below). Because of this mutation, this isomerase can no longer convert DHAP into G3P (or G3P into DHAP). What is the total energetic cost during glycolysis due to this mutation? Explain why. You can express the energetic cost in terms of number of ATP molecules per glucose oxidized. You should only consider the cost in glycolysis and none of the processes that occur after that (such as the pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid cycle or the oxidative phosphorylation).
