Chapter 24, Problem 48P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The labeled carbon in pyruvate should be determined when it is comes from glucose-1-14C

Glycolysis cycle:

In the carbohydrate metabolism, the conversion of glucose into pyruvate is known as

Glycolysis cycle. In this cycle, the glucose is converted into D-glyceraldehye-3-phosphate and this D-glyceraldehye-3-phosphate is further converted into pyruvate,

In this process, the carbons atoms numbered in the order of where it is in glucose,

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The labeled carbon in pyruvate should be determined when it is comes from glucose-2-14C

Glycolysis cycle:

In the carbohydrate metabolism, the conversion of glucose into pyruvate is known as
