What steps would a cell take to oxidize into carbon dioxide the four carbons of malate? List the enzyme of each reaction that leads to the oxidation of each carbons to CO2.
Nucleotides
It is an organic molecule made up of three basic components- a nitrogenous base, phosphate,and pentose sugar. The nucleotides are important for metabolic reactions andthe formation of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid).
Nucleic Acids
Nucleic acids are essential biomolecules present in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and viruses. They carry the genetic information for the synthesis of proteins and cellular replication. The nucleic acids are of two types: deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). The structure of all proteins and ultimately every biomolecule and cellular component is a product of information encoded in the sequence of nucleic acids. Parts of a DNA molecule containing the information needed to synthesize a protein or an RNA are genes. Nucleic acids can store and transmit genetic information from one generation to the next, fundamental to any life form.

My professor said something about gluconeogenesis but I still not can understand their relationship. Is it because malate can oxidize to oxaloacetate thought enzyme malate dehydrogenase and then this oxaloacetate can join the gluconeogenesis pathway to product phosphoenolpyruvate, and then this PEP go to glycolysis pathway produce pyruvate?

So for route 1, when OAA decarboxylated to PEP. Are the can immediately converted to pyruvate by enzyme pyruvate kinase or they go completely the gluconeogenesis to product the glucose, and the that glucose break down to pyruvate through glycolysis?
