In which ways is gluconeogenesis the reverse of glycolysis. Which of the following IS NOT TRUE?
A) gluconeogenesis uses most glycolysis reactions in reverse mode. The direction of the reaction is determined by the concentration of reagents and products in the pathway.
B) phosphoenolpyruvate and pyruvate interconversions directed by pyruvate carboxylase/PEP-carboxykinase AND pyruvate kinase are the first steps that commit the onset of gluconeogenesis
C) fructose-16P and fructose-6P interconversions directed by fructose 1-6 bisphosphatase AND phosphofructokinase is the first step that determine the onset of glycolysis
D) gluconeogenesis produces pyruvate and glycolysis makes glucose
False D)gluconeogenesis produces pyruvate and glycolysis makes glucose.
Gluconeogenesis produces glucose ; Glycolysis produces pyruvate.
Gluconeogenesis is the reverse of glycolysis in that they share same reactions but in a reverse way .
