Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 18CT
We have examined the total ATP, NADH, and FADH2 production in the Krebs cycle for each molecule of glucose coming through Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas glycolysis. How many of each of these molecules would be produced if the Entner-Doudoroff pathway were used instead of EMP glycolysis?
