Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The labeled carbon in pyruvate should be determined when it is comes from
Glycolysis cycle:
In the carbohydrate
Glycolysis cycle. In this cycle, the glucose is converted into D-glyceraldehye-3-phosphate and this D-glyceraldehye-3-phosphate is further converted into pyruvate,
In this process, the carbons
(b)
Interpretation:
The labeled carbon in pyruvate should be determined when it is comes from
Glycolysis cycle:
In the carbohydrate metabolism, the conversion of glucose into pyruvate is known as
Glycolysis cycle. In this cycle the glucose converted into D-glyceraldehye-3-phosphate and this D-glyceraldehye-3-phosphate is further converted into pyruvate,
In this process, the carbons atoms numbered in the order of where it is in glucose,
