Question
Chapter 17, Problem 37P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The mechanism involved in the glyoxylate cycle of plants and bacteria for the condensation of acetyl CoA and glyoxylate.
Concept introduction:
The glyoxylate cycle is a modification of the tricarboxylic acid cycle. It is an anabolic pathway that occurs in plants, protists, bacteria, and fungi. This cycle relies on the acetyl-CoA conversion to succinate for the production of carbohydrates.
