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 t…
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 glucon…

Chapter 24.4, Problem 24.9P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The role of NADH in the conversion of pyruvate to lactate needs to be explained. Also, the role of NADH in the conversion of pyruvate to ethanol needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

The oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate generates NADH resulting net oxidation in the glucose to pyruvate conversion. The oxidation-reduction does not take place in the glucose to lactate conversion. The transfer of electrons from NADH to pyruvate is catalyzed by lactate dehydrogenase to from lactate.
