Gluconeogenesis is the conversion of pyruvate to glucose. Several cofactors are needed in this metabolic pathway. The overall unbalanced reaction is shown below.
? pyruvate +?NADH+ ?ATP + ?GTP → 1 glucose+?NAD+ ?ADP+?GDP+?P
a. How many equivalents of pyruvate are needed to generate 1 equivalent of glucose?
b. How many equivalents of NADH/NAD* are used/produced to make 1 equivalent of glucose?
c. How many equivalents of ATP/ADP are used/produced in the overall reaction to make 1 equivalent of glucose?
d. How many equivalents of GTP/GDP are used/produced in the overall reaction to make 1 equivalent of glucose?
e. How many equivalents of P is produced to make 1 equivalent of glucose?
