Q

The last step of glycolysis involve the conversion of phosphophenol pyruvate to pyruvate synthesized glucose, most organism accomplish the reversal of this reaction by employing a series of reactions different from the glycolytic reaction which bypass the glycolytic reaction.
2 Q’s are about this series of reaction:
1) Which of the following is true about this bypass:
2) Assuming that Lactate is not available how is NADH involve in the reversal reaction;

A

1) The reaction have a net requirement of 2 ATP equivalent per pyruvate
2) 1 mole is consumed in mitochondria and formed in the cytosol for each mole of pyruvate consumed
