Question
Chapter 22, Problem 2P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The balanced equation for the conversion of glycerol to pyruvate should be determined.
Enzymes required in this glycolytic pathway should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Gluconeogenesis means the production of a glucose molecule from the non-carbohydrate substrate. The non-carbohydrate substrates here used are glycerol, lactate, and glucogenic amino acids. This is an important pathway, as it stores energy in the form of glucose for the functioning of glucose.

Tracing glucose. Glucose labeled with 14 C at C-6 is added to a solution containing the enzymes and cofactors of the oxidative phase of the pentose phosphate pathway. What is the fate of the radioactive label?
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.
