Question
Chapter 15, Problem 21E
Summary Introduction
To explain: The length of the products of the transketolase reaction when both substrates are five-carbon sugars.
Concept introduction: The alternative pathway of glucose oxidation is pentose phosphate pathway, which includes 2 phases: oxidative phase and non-oxidative phase. The principal products of the pentose phosphate pathway are ribose-5-phosphate and NADPH. At stage 3 of pentose phosphate pathway, carbon–carbon bond cleavage and formation occur, and it is catalyzed by transaldolase and transketolase.
