Chapter 9, Problem 9.2PS
The History of Glycolysis. Following are several historical observations that led to the elucidation of the glycolytic pathway. In each case, suggest a
- (a) Alcoholic fermentation in yeast extracts requires a heat-labile fraction originally called zymase and a heat-stable fraction (cozymase) that is necessary for the activity of zymase.
- (b) Alcoholic fermentation does not take place in the absence of inorganic phosphate.
- (c) In the presence of iodoacetate, a known inhibitor of glycolysis, fermenting yeast extracts accumulate a doubly phosphorylated hexose.
- (d) In the presence of fluoride ion, another known glycolytic inhibitor, fermenting yeast extracts accumulate two phosphorylated three-carbon acids.

Instructions.
Given each set of information which may include common name(s) and the reaction catalyzed, you are required to identify the main class of the specific enzyme described.
Name: citryl-CoA synthetase
Reaction: ATP + citrate + CoA = ADP + phosphate + (3S)-citryl-CoA
Name: D-xylulose reductase
Reaction: xylitol + NAD+ = D-xylulose + NADH + H+
Name: cellobiose phosphorylase
Reaction: cellobiose phosphate = α-D-glucose 1-phosphate + D-glucose
Name: carbonic anhydrase
Reaction: H2CO3 = CO2 + H2O
Other info: The enzyme catalyzes the reversible hydration of gaseous CO2 to carbonic acid, which dissociates to give hydrogencarbonate above neutral pH.
Name: pantoate activating enzyme
Reaction: ATP + (R)-pantoate = AMP + diphosphate + (R)-pantothenate.
