- The first step of the metabolic process known as glycolysis is the conversion of glucose to glucose- 6-phosphate. This process has a positive value for rG' Glucose + Pi Glucose-6-phosphate + H2O rG' = +13.8 kJ/mol-rxn This reaction is coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP ATP + H2O ADP + Pi rG' = -30.5 kJ/mol-rxn What is the sum of these two equations and the value of rG' for the coupled reaction? Is the coupled reaction product-favored at equilibrium?arrow_forwardWhy are so many different enzymes needed?arrow_forwardWhat are endorphins?arrow_forward
- ***In determining glucose concentration using a glucometer, the test involves an enzymatic reaction. What is the enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of glucose to gluconolactone? a. Glucose oxidase b. Glucose reductase c. Glucose synthetase d. Glucose peroxidasearrow_forwardWhich enzyme is involved in the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate? a. enolase b. ketolase c. pyruvate kinase d. pyruvate oxidasearrow_forward25. Under anaerobic conditions, yeast produces and alcohol during alcoholic fermentation a. lactate b. CO2 c. glucose d. acetyl CoAarrow_forward
