Introduction:
Glycolysis is a series of chemical reaction in the body which synthesizes energy in the form of ATP by breaking down Glucose molecules. Glycolysis is an extramitochondrial chemical reaction and takes place in the cytoplasm to produce energy in the form of ATP.
Triose Phosphate Isomerase help in the catalysis of conversion of dihydroxyacetone-Phosphate to Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate. The

- Energetics of the Hexokinase Reaction The standard-state free energy change. Gfor the hexokinase reaction, is — 1 6.7 kJ/mol. Use the values in Table I to calculate the value of Gfor this reaction in the erythrocyte at 37°C.arrow_forwardThe Payoff Phase of Glycolysis in Skeletal Muscle In the skeletal muscle, in anaerobic conditions, glyceraldehyde 3- phosphate is converted into pyruvate during the payoff phase of glycolysis; and this pyruvate is reduced into lactate during lactic fermentation. 1-Write the 11 balanced biochemical equations corresponding to all| the reaction steps leading to the conversion of glyceraldehyde-3- phosphate into lactate through glycolysis followed by lactic fermentation. 2-Write the net equation of the whole transformation process (i.e. with glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate as the starting substrate; and lactate as the end product).arrow_forwardPls help due asaparrow_forward

A certain anabolic biochemical reaction A has AG- 17.8 kJ mol , and is always coupled to another reaction B, which has two reactants and two products, I this: R + R2 P + P2 The molecule in the drawing area below is either R, or P. • If it's R, change it into P. But if it's P, change it into R. • In either case, draw the molecule as it would exist at physiological pH. • Also please answer the questions about Reaction B in the table below. OR, Was the molecule in the drawing area R, or P, before you changed it? What is R? Enter its common name, usual symbol, or chemical formula: What is P2?
