Suppose you added a "pulse" of 3-14C-pyruvate (where 14C is in the methyl position) to an aerobically growing cell to study the citric acid cycle. a. Indicate the location (s) of 14C on oxaloacetate after one cycle. From the color- coding on your CAC handout, note that enzymes work on one side of the intermediates until they become symmetrical. b.

Organic Chemistry of Metabolic Pathways

Metabolic pathways allude to the arrangement of chemical catalyzed reactions that lead to the transformation of a substance into the final product. Metabolic pathways incorporate a progression of reaction where the substrate is changed continuously and the transitional metabolites are persistently recovered.

Glucogenesis

Glucogenesis is a metabolic pathway in which glucose is produced from carbon substrates that are not carbohydrates. This process is observed in plants, animals, fungi, bacteria and other micro organisms. The general  definition for glucogenesis or gluconeogenesis is as follows,
